Deep in thought (Mountain Gorilla) Painting

At the age of 18, I went on to study Design and Communication at Ravensbourne College of Art & Design. Then a Master of Arts Degree, at The Central School, London specialising in Educational Material for wildlife conservation. After graduating, I worked as a designer in London, before setting up a design agency in the late 1980’s. After the successful sale of the London agency, I went on to connected my twin passions, that of painting and her love of wildlife and the natural world. In every painting I strive to capture the unique personality and character of the wildlife I paint and support various wildlife and environmental charities through the sale of my work, to assist people who have made it their mission to stop the degradation of the planet's natural environment and to build a future in which humans live in harmony with nature.
