Wild bird and animal portraitsWelcome to my world …
A world of birds and animals, even in the city!
I am a wildlife artist living in Toronto, Canada. I make portraits using coloured pencil and other media. For me, art is a way to connect with other species.
It begins long before I put pencil to paper. Most days, I spend time in a ravine, watching birds, taking notes and photos. These references keep me true to my subject.
My goal with each portrait is to show the vitality of another being — its real presence — and to communicate something of my love for the natural world.
