Kingfisher oil painting Painting by Una Hurst

I knew I would paint for a living when I was 3 years old.  I was born and raised in the Falkland Islands one of the best places in the world to see tame wildlife. I mostly paint wildlife, farm livestock, birds dogs and horses in oils but do like some watercolour and pastel work as well. Almost 50 of my paintings have been depicted on postage stamps for the South Atlantic. I paint nearly every day and have a large dedicated studio and packing room as a lot of my paintings are reproduced to sell as prints. I am also a shepherd, like my family before me for generations and with my husband I now live and have a farm in Orkney, Scotland and where like the Falklands it is unspoilt and peaceful with loads of wildlife.
