 Howard Robinson is a UK artist and a rare bird breeder. He has travelled the globe giving presentations. He's even met the queen! His artwork is licensed through out the world and his art is known for the cute animals and wildlife he paints.

“After many years of hard work and study I seem to be living the dream at the moment. From childhood I have always been fascinated by nature and this has become the main feature of my art and so I am never short of inspiration as work and hobbies have just become
one and the same.

Having been successful in breeding many rare birds I now get invited to give presentations as far a field as Africa and Australia and where I am then able to explore the wilds with the worlds experts. I visit so many amazing places I often have to pinch myself and so bursting with inspiration and reference I return home to paint my images. These images are frequently licensed by Zoo’s and Aquariums and so I then get to visit ‘behind the scene for hands on experience with even more fascinating species. Inspiration is all around me even as I work, at the end of my studio I have a glass wall enclosing my own piece of rainforest complete with waterfall and tropical plants in which poison dart frogs live and breed.

I really do work far too hard but if I was to retire today what would I do?,
exactly what I am doing now.”
