I am an Australian artist based in Perth Western Australia. My passion is to paint realistic bird art in oils.

Through my bird paintings I endeavour to capture the beauty, unique personality and magnificence of each of my chosen subjects. I achieve this by spending weeks applying layers of oil paint in order to capture the detail and charisma of each composition.

I am a dedicated member of Birdlife Australia our nations largest bird conservation organisation. A percentage of every original painting sold to automatically donated to this organisation in support of endangered and threatened birdlife species in Australia.

My artworks have been jury selected as finalists in several high profile competitions. I have also had the honor of completeing many commissioned works for private wildlife art collectors.

I am an exhibiting member of the Wildlife Art Society of Australasia.

My works can be viewed and purchased via my website www.nickyshelton.com.au
