CLIVE MEREDITH


Born in 1964 in Wellington, Shropshire, Clive Meredith now lives in Hampshire. Entirely self-taught, worked as a professional artist since 1993. In the past three years of work by Clive Meredith has become much sought after. Now recognized as one of Britain's first wildlife artists, Clive's originals are displayed throughout the country with great success. He continues his exploration of the wildlife and animals around the British rest of the world.

Clive Meredith of the first appearance as an artist in residence in Nature in Art, Gloucestershire (UK the largest art museum wildlife), was received with great interest and success. Clive is entirely self-taught, his passion for the pen came from her love for the British study wildlife. Clive has worked in other media, including oil, but only pencil Clive gives the excitement and control that strives to achieve in his pictures.

The success and increasing sponsorship Clive has attracted in recent years speak for themselves. Her originals are in high demand and after a strong market for collectors of fine art limited edition prints. We believe that Clive Meredith name will be synonymous with the best traditions of art from wildlife.

Clive is recognized as a leading UK artists wildlife. He has been successful exhibitions throughout the country two of them very well attended weeks as Artist in Residence at the Nature in Art, Gloucestershire (UK leader Art Museum of Wildlife).

Clive works in pencil are true works of love, which is the result of many hours of work. Detail is constructed carefully, first working hard, soft leads, resulting in a dramatic impact. The wrinkled hide of a rhinoceros, or moist skin of a tiger swimming are done with great sensitivity, giving the animals a living presence and strong individuality. Clive believes that the value is as important as the portrait of the animal, giving true meaning of habitat and season.

Clive in the world of a hedgehog or a fox can strike as an image as a lion or tiger, everything is in the drama of the composition and dynamics of the tones of his pen. "Clive's work is vibrant and alive, it is a pleasure to see the images that not only animals but also their surroundings and are so beautifully described accurately." - Virginia McKenna, Born Free Foundation.
