WILDLIFE ARTIST

Original Colourful Animal Art

I have always loved animals and I enjoy capturing their majesty and beauty in oils on canvas. I create colourful animal art inspired by British wildlife, African safaris, and the joyful companionship of dogs. 

All my work is inspired by the light and colour in nature.

Bring the wild beauty of nature into your home with expressive, one-of-a-kind oil paintings. Each piece captures the movement, energy, and soul of wildlife and landscapes, turning blank walls into windows to the natural world

When on safari I always stay with Offbeat Mara, it’s such wonderful camp. 

I love to paint.

Welcome to my colourful world of wildlife art.
As an artist deeply inspired by nature, I find joy in capturing the beauty of the world around me — whether at home in the UK or on travels further afield. Wherever I go, my sketchbook and a small box of paints are always close at hand. These moments of quiet observation, often with my sketchbook balanced on my lap, allow me to connect deeply with the scene and atmosphere in front of me.

These sketches later evolve into my larger oil paintings, which I create in my Salisbury studio. Each piece begins with a spark of inspiration — from a pride of lions seen on a Kenyan safari, to a peaceful woodland walk with my husband and our dog, Mr Bumbles. Over time, that spark becomes a vibrant and expressive artwork that celebrates the richness of the natural world.

My paintings reflect both British wildlife and African wildlife, along with a growing collection of colourful dog portraits — each one crafted with love, care and a deep sense of connection.

Whether you’re here to find a reminder of your favourite place or a beloved animal, I hope you enjoy exploring my work. Every piece has a story, and perhaps one will become part of yours.

New arrivals!

My new series of vintage inspired portraits. Time to add some elegance and glamour! These portraits are a little different tfomr my usual wildlife work , but I do love to challenge myself and create something unique! They’re over on the shop page.

Wildlife Paintings That Celebrate Nature

Beautiful artwork has the power to completely transform a living space — whether it’s a bold statement piece or a subtle touch that adds warmth and personality. Imagine having a painting you truly love, one that lifts your spirits every time you see it. That’s the magic of living with original art.

Using traditional oil painting techniques with a contemporary, colourful twist, I create wildlife artwork that is both expressive and elegant. Each piece is designed not only to reflect the beauty of nature, but also to complement and elevate the style of your home.

If you’re looking for something truly special, I’d be delighted to help you find the perfect painting — one that resonates with you and fits beautifully in your space.

You may have come across my framed prints in galleries and shops across the UK. This website focuses more closely on my original artworks, and I hope you enjoy getting to know both me and my work as you explore.
