About The Artwork

This is House Wren (Troglogytes aedon) that is common throughout Brazil. I have had nesting pairs at my house on several occasions. The majority of the birds I paint are those that I have seen and photographed personally as I like to maintain a connection with the subjects. My preferred style in my watercolours is a semi-realistic style, that I call loose-tight, usually against a plain white background. I like to capture some detail but prefer a degree of looseness that I feel appeals to bird-lovers, ornithologists or those keen to decorate their homes with colourful bird pictures. Most of my paintings are in A3 paper size though I also paint on smaller (eg A4) or larger supports eg 100 cm x 80 cm. My watercolour paintings, made with top quality pigments, are sold unframed. My recommendation for framing is to have a 5cm matt, non-reflecting glass, and a simple black wooden frame.

Birds. And Nature. These are the subjects that inspire me. At an early age I loved exploring hedgerows and streams. Teeming with diverse life, they fascinated me. My appreciation of flora and fauna broadened, through travel, to include birds, plants, animals and insects, though birds were always special. I am a British artist and photographer based in Brazil. My nomadic life began in Libya, where I was born, and has taken me to live in 15 countries on 5 continents, visiting 40 or more other countries in my lifetime. Places as diverse as deserts, rainforests and the concrete jungles of city life have been home to me. I remain a keen traveller focusing on commercial Travel / Food photography and writing in addition to painting.  While most of my paintings are in watercolour I also paint in other media. I would describe my style as loose/tight as I like to balance a degree of looseness against the detail found in the key elements of a bird's genus. My aim is to make them recognisable while retaining an element of artistic impressionism.
