A Fox's Hill Top


Hi Everyone, decided to draw a fox as the main subject of my illustration today. Here he is standing on top of a hill enjoying the view of the morning sun. This illustration was tricky to make, but I managed to get the right colour tones to create a fresh morning feel. Love how it's bright fur stands out against the grey winter sky.

The Three Elephants


The Three Elephants


Hi everyone, Here is my elephant inspired illustration. I have been working on this for the past few days. I really enjoyed working on this piece. Capturing the light and the tones of this picture was challenging, but the results are effective creating a look of a hot environment where these guys are enjoying the sun.

Happy New Year


Happy New Year!

I know it's a few days late,

Here is my first ever post

This is my portrait illustration of an beautiful Amur Leopard walking through a snowy forest.
Ideal image for January if you are like me and live in the UK.



Amur Leopards live in Eastern Russia, they habitat temperate forests with extreme cold winters to hot summers. Sadly these species of leopard are endangered with small numbers of them left in the wild. They are on the WWF Priority list. If you want to find out more about the Amur Leopard visit http://wwf.panda.org/what_we_do/endangered_species/amur_leopard2/   

Every month I will be posting a special illustration of an different endangered animal. Come back next month to see what I have in store for February. Don't worry I will be posting different illustrations through out the month too.
