Our Fur Babies

I have lived all my life surrounded by animals so it was natural for me to draw and paint them. I put my heart and soul into everything I paint but will never take payment for my work unless you are entirely happy with the final painting.

My particular painting style has been described as fine art but I have never been comfortable trying to define something that is both visual and personal. Hopefully my technique can be discerned from the paintings you view throughout this website.

I am thankful I live in a country where we are a nation of animal lovers. They give us so much unconditional love and affection. Whether it be a dog, cat, horse, rabbit or infact any animal we choose to share our lives with, my love and respect for them is paramount.
