About the Artist:
David Shepherd, CBE was known internationally as one of the world's leading wildlife artists. He was also a passionate conservationist and he freely admits that he owes all his success to the animals he paints.
Prolific in output as a painter of not only wildlife but portraits, landscapes, aviation, military subjects and steam railways, he was also an author and brim full of stories and anecdotes. David says he is an extrovert who enjoys talking and he likes to be known as a natural promoter and an ardent ambassador for conservation - it's the way he is.
David will tell you that he became an artist in his tender years because he couldn't do anything else, his early career was, to quote his own words, 'a series of disasters.' After failing to be a game warden in Africa, he turned to his second choice, painting. David owes all his subsequent success to the man who trained him, Robin Goodwin, also to the Royal Air Force who flew him all over the world in order to paint aircraft pictures for them and also commissioned his very first elephant painting.
