My two passions in life are animals and art. I am a qualified Wildlife Scientist and work in the field of animal conservation. I have no formal qualifications in the arts but have pursued my passion for art my whole life. I focus on creating artworks of wildlife as it gives me a chance to help spread awareness of the struggle our wildlife face, especially from climate change. There is a beauty in nature that people often take for granted and I try to express this beauty in my artwork. I have experimented with many different art forms; however, papercutting is the one I enjoy the most. I enjoy creating works on paper as the medium itself is fragile just like our ecosystem. It takes time and patience to cut out each individual piece. I become immersed in my art and forget about all other worries.
