Jackie Garner, British wildlife artist Wildlife artists love getting close to the natural world. Got to admit though, that this close encounter with a boa constrictor was a bit closer than I usually get to my wildlife subjects!

Jackie Garner, British Wildlife Artist
I'm a British wildlife artist, who paints UK and international wildlife and occasionally still life and portraits. Like many wildlife artists, I've been inspired by visits overseas, in my case to the Falkland Islands and Egypt. 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 - however in 2012 I'm embracing the animal-, reptile- and insect- side of wildlife art. See my wildlife artist profile >>

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 >>
