I’m Cheryl, a wildlife and pet portrait artist based in Nottingham. I started my art journey in 2023, and my love for animals meant that they quickly became the focus of my work. My art is in a realistic style and I strive to capture the beauty and personality of each animal that I draw. 

My background is in scientific research, where I learned an attention to detail that is very useful for the type of art that I create. I use coloured pencils as they allow me to produce a high level of precision and a realistic effect, and I mainly use hot pressed watercolour paper. I enjoy constantly learning and growing my art skills. 

I sell prints of my original art through my website and I create bespoke portraits of pets or favourite animals on a commission basis.
