Paintings by Michael jackson

Michael was born in 1961 in North West England and educated at Ashton High School in Preston, where even as a boy he regularly won awards for his art.

This early devotion to wildlife has led him to be both, environmentally aware and a keen conservationist. His passion for Nature and Art led him to Blackpool College where he studied Natural History Illustration. He was the first student ever to achieve a distinction and was awarded the Student of the Year, by the Rotary Club of Great Britain, for work of exceptional quality and detail.

Michael is tireless in pursuit of reference for his subjects and has travelled extensively, from the Jungles of Borneo to the Plains of Africa and Asia. For Michael coming Face to Face with nature is what makes him tick.
