Hi! My name is Adele Beverley, and I
am a professional pet artist living in Cambridgeshire, England. I have alwa
ys
loved to paint and draw, I have done it for as long as I can remember.
I became more interested in art whilst studying it for A-Level. One
afternoon I saw the artist Bob Ross on television and was amazed by his
techniques. He could 'whip' up masterpieces in minutes! I purchased
his kit and started producing landscape paintings in oils. This was my
first venture with oils. I gave them as gifts to family members and friends, who
were astounded that I did them. Over the years I painted more
paintings as gifts, from landscapes, to people and then eventually pets. I
realized this was the subject I wanted to pursue. I now take commissions
all over the world.
I am a huge animal lover, from the small to the big, and I love capturing the essence of the animal onto canvas. Each animal has a distinct personality that I love to capture.
Besides from pet portraiture, I love travelling, I try to get over to Vancouver in Canada as often as I can. It's the most beautiful city in the world. I also love the countryside, hiking, the theatre and spending time with my nephew and with the three children I part time 'nanny' for. I have been with the same family for 12 years and love them dearly. Now they are at school I have more time to concentrate on my pet portraiture. The two fit in very nicely.
I almost forgot to mention that I am owned by a three-year old yorkie called Alfie. I love him to bits. He's always right there beside me as I work on commissions. My faithful friend!
