Gunilla Wachtel is an equine and other animal artist who primarily works in pencil. She creates dynamic, detailed animal drawings that deepen and strengthen people's connection to animals.

Her studio is called Kanweienea Kreations. The studio name was inspired by the name of one of her online game mmorpg characters plus it sounded Hawaiian! She loves Hawaii and the Hawaiian islands. Since Kanweienea Kreations has an Hawaiian sound to it, that's the name that was chosen for Gunilla's Studio.
