Combining my love of Wildlife and Art; whilst also working alongside and supporting wildlife conservation groups - I have been fortunate to realise a lifelong dream.

My artwork very much reflects my love of nature. My natural history paintings, drawings, and pet portraits are highly-detailed and portrayed using a variety of media including pencil, acrylic, oil, and pastel.

I have been working from my Larmer Studio, as a self-taught professional Wildlife Artist since 1989. I have exhibited artwork at a number of galleries including the London Zoological Society, whilst working with the Orangutan Foundation, the Mall Galleries, and have illustrated two Wolf Conservation books. I am also a Reg. Bat Carer working with the BCT: rescuing and releasing bats back to the wild.
