Wildlife Gallery


We share this planet with complex, interesting, intelligent and beautiful creatures. I truly love animals and enjoy being with them.

It brings me great joy to capture "expression" whether the subject is a person or an animal. I enjoy painting textures, the softness of fur or the gloss of an eye.

Poet, "Rosemary Holmes-Smith", was inspired to create this poem for the painting "Deep Forest" and has offered it to be published on this site:

"In ancient times, the hidden forest grove

Sheltered your nest and evening sunlight wove

A pattern of beauty from each tree to sky.

Now, magic bird where will you fly?

The spotted owls in danger lie.

As forests fall, these giants die.

Are your days numbered, little owl?

And have we heard the last wolf’s howl?"
