Meet Ralph

Brisbane-born artist Ralph Wilson comes from five generations of ocean lovers.

Ralph has supported AMCS, and its forerunner the Littoral Society, for decades.

Of his love of the sea, Ralph writes “…after most of a lifetime spent on or near the water, the obsession has only deepened and the sea and the sky continue to cast their spell with a power that will tolerate nothing less than my undiluted attention… I can’t imagine my future without the sea and attempting to make some sort of record of its wonders.”

Ralph wants his memory and his spirit to side there, and because it means so much for him, he wants to make sure it is still there for generations.

As an Ocean Legacy member, Ralph has included AMCS in his Will. He wants the relationship between people and the wild places to stay. He says, “It’s not a case of why should you leave a bequest, it’s more the case of, why wouldn’t you?”
