Queensland Wildlife Artists
Society Incorporated Invites you to attend our meetings held last Sunday of every second month and
learn about our society and the benefits we provide and enjoy the warm and friendly
atmosphere on which the QWASI prides itself.
Welcome to the official website of the Queensland Wildlife Artists Society.
The society was established in 1983 in Brisbane, Australia, by a small group of artists interested in fostering the study and appreciation of wildlife art specifically relating to Australia's unique species.
QWASI became incorporated in 1995 and membership has steadily grown to include artists from all over Australia and overseas
