Alison is an award winning Australian artist specialising in Wildlife painting. She has always painted but took it up seriously about 9 years ago and has dedicated herself to art ever since. She learnt much from the many artists she admires and has been fortunate to have studied at length with some of those inspirational artists - Regina Hona, Stephen Powell and Carmel Mahoney. Family have also been a wonderful support team along with her teachers.
Her work has been published in "Australian Artist" magazine and in the US collectors' magazine "Wildlife Art."
Regular travel to the places where the wild animals dwell enables her to gather reference material and to experience the animals, their lives and evironment. These experiences translate into her work. She has also done conservation volunteer work in South Africa where it was possible to get 'up close and personal' with lions, leopards and cheetahs.
