I focus my artworks on wildlife and realism (although I dabble in portraits and seascapes on occasions too!) I mostly work in soft pastel on pastelmat. Recently I have begun to delve into the fascinating world of acrylics, creating several paintings on both canvas and wooden panels.
Where possible, I like to donate a portion of the sales of my work to relevant wildlife charities and organisations, so that my work can contribute to saving our planets wonderful animals.
In 2020 I started to enter exhibitions and art competitions with 2021 being a very successful year, achieving several awards and being exhibited in many physical and online exhibitions.
Other than my original artworks, I also offer commissions such as pet portraits, human portraits, seascapes & landscapes, with a large portfolio of commissions available to show on request.
