Links 
As a lifelong animal lover, wildlife and animals of all descriptions feature quite strongly in my collection of paintings and sketches. For this reason, I use my work as an artist in a way that is of practical benefit to animals by supporting a number of charities in their work to combat cruelty, neglect and ignorance in animal husbandry in all parts of the world.

To learn more about the activities of any of these charities, follow the links below.
