Animals

GRAEME WHITTLE

Ever since a stranger shoved a little puppy through the gate of my childhood home I have loved animals and for a long time now wanted to a series of paintings about them. Here they are.

Habitat loss, climate change and pollution are threatening all animal species, often in unexpected ways. I hope, in a small way, to draw attention to the fate of some of these creatures and to highlight their beauty. Without them we are the losers as well for we are one of their number.

Oh! My father allowed me and my brothers to keep the puppy, we rather unimaginatively named it Scamp.
