Kelly McNeil
I have traveled, and painted across Canada, the United States, and Europe. Having worked in the commercial art field for ten years, I left and started painting for gallery shows, and private commissions. In the past 3 years I have added wildlife painting to my portrait painting, and scenery. Art has always been my passion. Since the purchase of my digital camera 3 years ago, I have been concentrating on my wildlife painting. Everywhere I go, I am visiting Zoo’s, Wildlife Reserves, Wildlife Refuges, or National Parks. I am dragging my family around, while I sketch the lazy animals, and photograph the active ones. This seems to be my passion, and being a very prolific painter, (in oil, working 5 to 7 days a week), I am producing 3 to 5 paintings a week.
