Mark Adlington is a terrific contemporary animal artist from the UK. I came across his beautiful work by accident online. He draws his subjects in their natural environments, before refining the sketches in his studio.
Adlington has a great sense for observation, he can paint any kind of animal very well.
I found two publications featuring his work on Amazon. One focusing on African lions, the other one on polar bears.
Here are a couple of great videos with him talking about his work:

Beautiful artwork. Are the last few pictures watercolors?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. Simple and powerful. I have to study his work - even if I’m not a fan of lions and polar bears :-)
ReplyDeleteI love this sort of thing, I still find my own animals and figures are a little stiff/lifeless at times
ReplyDeletehe has posted hundreds of sketches and paintings on his instagram page
ReplyDeleteThank you for posting his artwork! :)
ReplyDeleteI have never seen his work before. I like that kind of animal painting/drawing so much!
