The accurate portrayal of wildlife in its environment is the essence
of Jeremy Paul, an artist whose work is shown in collections from the Middle East to North America where he has
exhibited in the prestigious "Birds in Art" at the Leigh Yawkey Woodson art museum.
Born in Accrington, UK in 1954, Jeremy had a successful career in marine
biology before becoming a professional artist. After receiving a doctorate for research, his work took him to live
in Spain and some of the most beautiful and remote areas of the British Isles, particularly the west coast of Scotland.
It was here on a remote island with a population of only six people that Jeremy started painting seriously.
During the 1980's his reputation as a wildlife artist soared and he
started to receive regular commissions for original works. He says "....my aim as a wildlife artist is not
merely to illustrate but to impart the atmosphere of the setting and the feel of wildlife in its natural environment.
I spend many hours in the field observing wildlife and my greatest thrill so far has been following tigers in the
wild and helping raise funds for their conservation through my paintings".
He has traveled extensively in India, Africa and North America and has
had many one-man exhibitions. Jeremy has received commissions from "the Sultan of Oman" and the "Government
of the Isle of Man" where he now lives with his wife and two children.
