Wildlife in Acrylics - 2nd March 2012
Mike, originally from Lancashire, trained as a Wildlife illustrator at Blackpool College and now works as an illustrator for wildlife and conservation organisations , producing posters, brochures and field guides. He explained how the majority of his work is hand painted but that recently he has been using computer techniques to work digitally, giving flexibility, and allowing for elements within the picture to be moved and reformatted, and for the final work to be produced in multiple sizes but still retain their sharpness. Mike showed his recent work where he has moved into painting individual pieces in acrylics and oils but still capturing the essence of birds and British wildlife.
