Each original drawing I create is achieved by applying many, many layers of coloured pencils, up to 20 layers, which are lightly built up on the surface of the paper, this achieves the photorealism required and for the wildlife portrait to come to life!

I use very specific makes of pencils called Polychromos, Prismacolor, Derwent, and Caran d'Ache, which are chosen for their quality and lightfastness to ensure each creation will not fade for up to 100 years under museum conditions.
