My plan with Shades of the Wild, is an ongoing monthly series showcasing at least one amazing animal each month that doesn't get the spotlight like the more common or popular species do.

​

This may be because they are lesser known, disliked or feared. It may be they are not considered cute, or even called 'ugly'. Some suffer with a bad reputation from the way they are portrayed in movies and the media.

As an artist, I’ve naturally gravitated toward animals I find beautiful, fascinating, or personally meaningful—ones that also resonate with others. Nothing wrong with this! It's completely natural to be drawn to what you like! These tend to also sell better from a professional perspective because people already feel a connection to them. But I wanted to challenge myself and push beyond those familiar choices.

So I decided to create a series that pushes those boundaries, and will allow me to explore some of the animals I would overlook for my artworks, or those I didn't even know about.

​

This is an opportunity to learn, appreciate, and share the wonder of these unsung creatures.

​​​Exclusive to Insider Members

I also decided to make access to this series exclusively available to Insider Members, those on my email list. This in part keeps to the theme of them being in the Shadows, an enigma waiting to be discovered.

This does not mean I plan to keep them secret and hidden from the outside world, as part of my intention is to shine the spotlight on these animals! I'll share sneak peeks on the artworks and occasional reveals on my social media, and we can all learn about the animals together!

But access to the full breadth of the series, and the ability to purchase the Original artworks and Prints, will remain exclusively available only to Insider Members.​

I hope you are as excited as I am about the series! Shades of the Wild  launches March 2025, with the first artwork already created!

​

Throughout this page, you'll find photographs (not artworks!) of some animals who may or may not be featured in the series, see if you can identify them!

​

Thank you for joining me on this adventure—let’s uncover the hidden wonders of the wild together!

As a valued member you will be able to help me decide who to feature, make suggestions, and join in with the research on these creatures!​
