Wildlife Art and Pet Portraits
​
Hi, I'm Lisa, a wildlife and pet portrait artist based in North Yorkshire. I produce realistic drawings using layers of coloured pencils to achieve depth and warmth within my subjects. My inspiration is the beautiful British countryside around me.

"Hi Lisa.
Beth opened the picture and her eyes filled with tears. And then mine did!!!! She said she can't believe how well you have captured every bit of Cookie and is absolutely over the moon with it. Thank you so much".

"We chose this print for my mum's 70th birthday and she was delighted. It looks very high quality, just as it appears in the images. Arrived on time and Lisa was an absolute dream to deal with - she helped us select the correct mount and advised on the frame size meaning it all went smoothly and the gift was perfect. Thanks Lisa x"

I commissioned Lisa to draw a picture of our Cockapoo some months ago now as a surprise for my partner's birthday. I have to say from our initial discussion through to collecting the completed portrait Lisa did everything and more she promised, sending me several versions along the way to approve and when I finally collected it, I was absolutely stunned at how lifelike is was. my partner was blown away at the quality of her work. So I cannot recommend Lisa highly enough, indeed several of our friends are going to ask her to do one for them. Excellent!

I commissioned a pet portrait of my dog for my partner. I couldn't believe how amazing it turned out, she was absolutely blown away by how good it was. Highly recommend especially as a present for a loved one.
