Nature Through a Ballpoint Pen

I’m a wildlife artist who specialises in creating captivating wildlife portraits using a biro, a unique ballpoint pen medium. This unconventional approach allows me to capture the intricate details and complexities of wildlife species in a way that brings each piece to life, from the layers of the fur to soulful, searching eyes.

Working on each piece for a minimum of 50 hours, I pour careful attention into every stroke. My work often sparks conversation and curiosity, as the use of a ballpoint pen in such detailed portraits is rare and fascinating. Through this medium, I aim to connect people with the beauty of the natural world and showcase the extraordinary details of the creatures that inhabit it.

Many of the pieces you see here are originals that have already found their homes with collectors, but each one shows the kind of detail and time that goes into a new commission. Original portraits start from around £450 for a smaller piece, up to £1,700+ for a larger one. If something here catches your eye, get in touch and we can talk about creating something similar (or completely unique!) just for you.

From original portraits to prints, illustrations, and greeting cards, designs are available on commission and as seen below.
