Jackie Garner - British Wildlife Artist

Jackie Garner, wildlife artist
Decided that I should embrace the animal-, insect- and reptile- side of wildlife art in 2012. Got to admit though, that this close encounter with a boa constrictor was a bit closer than I usually get to my wildlife subjects!
But isn't it beautiful?

Talking of beautiful, this is my take on an African elephant.

Who is Jackie Garner?
I'm a British wildlife artist, who concentrates mainly on painting UK wildlife and occasionally still life and portraits. My wildlife art has been inspired by visits to the Falkland Islands and Egypt, and recently I've been commissioned for various wildlife illustration projects. I'm a keen birder so many of my most recent works are paintings of British birds.

Wildlife Art Gallery
My artwork usually starts with experiencing wildlife in its own environment. My sketches are made outdoors in front of the subject, and they either remain as sketches or are later worked up in the studio. You can see examples of my wildlife paintings, in various media, in the online wildlife art gallery >>.
