Rockport artist Al Barnes' paintings have always garnered attention, but one of his works, "Whoopers" was recently awarded third place in the animal division of The Artist's Magazine's 21st annual art competition. His painting, "Frio Claro," was awarded honorable mention in the same competition.
The paintings were selected out of more than 13,000 works submitted by artists worldwide. The works are featured in the November issue of The Artist's Magazine.
"Whoopers" also won the Leonard J. Meiselman Memorial Award for representational painting at the 2002/03 Society of Animal Artist Show. Another painting by Barnes, titled "Aransas Morning," will be on exhibit at this year's Animal Artist Show.
A painting titled "The Roost" is currently on exhibit in the Birds of Art Show at the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum in Wausau, WI. Last year that museum purchased a work by Barnes, titled 'Dune Riders," for its permanent collection.
Barnes is also exhibiting a painting titled "Smack" in the 25th annual International Marine Art Exhibition at Mystic Seaport, Mystic, CT.

Instead of presenting this to the scientific world in a peer reviewed journal, these guys publish it in this book in an attempt to sway public opinion. I could go on as many of the statements in this article are misleading, or blatantly ludicrous. Suffice it to say, it looks to me like this book is much more about influencing public opinion than any scientific review of whether human activity is causing climate change.
It is sad some people will believe this as fact. "
