I'm a pet portrait, equine and wildlife artist. I work with coloured pencil and pastel, using artist quality lightfast pencils and acid-free, archival paper to ensure the longevity of each piece.

I grew up in rural Perthshire, Scotland, and have always drawn inspiration from the wildlife that surrounds me. I began painting pets and Scottish wildfowl and, following a school exhibition in 2010, I received my first pet portrait commission and have been creating them ever since! Since then, my style has grown and evolved.

In July 2018 I started working as an artist full-time, with the main focus being commissioned pet portraits. Since then I have introduced wildlife pieces which allow me a bit more creative freedom, and colour!

My wildlife artwork mainly focuses on British wildlife, however for the last couple of years I have been living and working in Far North Queensland, Australia, and Tasmania. This has been a fantastic source of inspiration, from snorkelling with Green Sea Turtles to spying Platypus feeding in tropical creeks, it has exceeded all expectations. Iā€™m now living in Edinburgh, Scotland, and plan to stay!

I have been fortunate to create bespoke brand-work for the National Trust for Scotland and bespoke artwork for All Souls College, Oxford. In 2021 I was selected to be the Artist in Action at the Scottish Game Fair, Scone Palace, where I will be returning in summer 2024.
