Adult male orangutan

My work focuses on the plight of animals facing extinction in the wild. Each large, same-size, canvas features the close-up face of an animal staring straight out at the viewer. In effect, I am painting a ‘death row’ of species. They are designed to grab attention, increase awareness and instigate action, before time runs out. I donate a proportion of the proceeds to conservation organisations that protect the animal painted.

I was a finalist in 2017 and 2018 at Wildlife Artist of the Year
