Wolves’ eyes are deep and full of mystery. Wolves are extremely intelligent animals and their sense of sight, smell and hearing is far greater than ours.

In 1989 I started my career as a Pet Portrait artist drawing mainly pet dog portraits. I have loved dogs since childhood and have always been interested in animal behaviour. Man’s association with the wolf stems back 1,000’s of years and has subsequently led to our modern-day relationship with dogs.

I have actively supported wildlife conservation groups for the past 50+ years, and since becoming a Wildlife Artist have always dreamed of illustrating a book for a conservation group or society. In 2006, my love of dogs and my journey into the world of art brought me back full circle to the beginning of man’s relationship with our four-legged furry friends. I was invited to illustrate two books on Wolf Conservation.

My graphite pencil ‘Wolf Eye’ drawing was produced for the book, ‘A New Era for Wolves and People’ by Dr. Marco Musiani, and to my delight, I was invited to meet and sketch wolves as a reference for the wolf books.  I discovered that meeting a wolf triggers a mixture of primeval emotions: a wonderful, and humbling experience. Professional photographer, Chris Senior, very kindly provided the photograph for me to use as a reference for this drawing.
