Steven Lingham“Whilst out walking we all see fleeting glimpses of the wildlife that surrounds us, whether it be of a fox running through a woodland, a herd of Roe Deer bounding into the distance or a Barn Owl quartering a field at dusk, it’s moments like those that can really make my day. It’s so easy to get “bogged down” by daily life. And by taking a walk in your local woodland or park you can see such sights, it makes you realise what life is really all about. With that in mind it’s very important to preserve these little “nature reserves”. By painting wildlife I am making people aware of its existence, giving the viewer a chance to really appreciate all the beautiful species that we have in our countryside.
“I like to bring the viewer of my work close to the subject, to see a moment in time. I like to portray my subject matter as they really are in the wild, most of the time just passing through a scene which I have already chosen to paint, the appearance of the animal is just an added bonus”.
“Light is everything to me in my work, it can create atmosphere, giving the painting a wonderful sense of life”.
"Steven Lingham's brand of photo-realism is, despite the genre, recognisably his own, often with sunlit birds, backlit leaves and finely-detailed gossamer threads." Steve Harris- Birdscapes Gallery, Norfolk.
