Clive Meredith is a self-taught artist. He is based on the south coast of England and has been working professionally since 1993. He specialises in detailed portrayals of wildlife from both Britain and abroad.

Clive’s initial interest in wildlife and the countryside was fostered in his early years. He was brought up in Shrewsbury as the son of a dairy farmer. This led to him spending hours in the Shropshire countryside, where he would spend his time birdwatching and larking about on the river Severn.

Clive works in both graphite pencil and oils. Observation is vital to Clive’s working practice. His work reveals meticulous attention to detail, which is achieved by him spending hours observing and photographing subjects in their natural habitat.

Clive has travelled extensively in Asia and Africa in search of subjects for his drawings and paintings.

As a result of this, he has become renowned for the stunning realism of his images. He has developed an assured ability to inject real life and character into his works.

Clive is a published artist, with over 70 limited edition releases to date. His work can be found in galleries throughout the UK and beyond. He works from a new studio/gallery in his hometown of Warsash in Hampshire.

In 2010 Clive was named ‘Wildlife Artist of the Year’ by Wildscape magazine. He won this prestigious annual competition with his image ‘The Egret pool’. He has also appeared as a finalist in the DSWF ‘Wildlife Artist of the Year’ in 2010, 2012 and 2013. This resulted in his work being exhibited at The Mall Galleries in London.
