Painting with Purpose
Art has always been my way of connecting with nature.
I love to observe and paint birds, often blending realism with abstract elements inspired by the colours, textures and patterns I see in nature. Each piece reflects a story, a moment or a connection. I like to get lost in capturing depth and character of a tree, branch or the soul of the bird though its eye.
My goal is to spark curiosity and appreciation for the natural world and remind people of the beauty that still surrounds us.

Art that Gives Back
Many of my threatened species pieces help raise awareness and funds for conservation projects that protect them. When you buy one of my artworks, you are also supporting the landscapes, communities and wildlife that inspire them.
I can reproduce pieces as prints, cards or posters, or create a custom painting that captures a species, story or place that means something special to you.

Behind the Brush
Every artwork begins with time spent in the field observing, photographing and listening to nature. I work mostly from my own images or, on rare occasions, use reference material with permission.
This process keeps each piece authentic and rooted in real experiences of being outdoors, watching and learning from the environment.
Art keeps me grounded. It connects the creative and the strategic parts of my life, helping me bring attention to what matters most, caring for nature and celebrating the wonder of life on this planet.
