Alan Hunt
Alan has been painting for some forty years during which time much of his work has been reproduced as prints and
cards for organisations such as the National Trust and his originals feature in many private collections. Introduced
to bird watching in his childhood he soon found that his enjoyment of drawing became a useful tool in helping
identification, so began a lifetime of bird painting. His favorite part of the world is the north Norfolk coast
which provides endless painting material.
"Whilst I use photographs for reference there is nothing like being in the outdoors where nature isn't limited to a
frame in a split second. It changes all the time and there are no boundaries or limitations. Water is
especially fascinating with the interplay of light, shadow and reflection which changes again into a myriad of
patterns with a passing water bird. Whilst much of my work is in watercolour I like to combine this with acrylics
depending on the subject."
Private commissions have come with trips to Africa, South America and the USA and include animals and landscapes.
Please contact Alan for original paintings and limited edition prints (these are limited to 75 prints, all individually
numbered and signed by the artist and are mounted).
