Steven Lingham is a self-taught artist born in Derby, England in 1973, who previously worked as a trained printer. He has spent the majority of his life living in Yorkshire and is now living in a small village near the beautiful old city of York with his wife.

Steven is a member of the RSPB, Yorkshire Wildlife Trust, The Wildlife Art Society International and The Marwell Zoo International Art Society, all of which promote conservation of Wildlife. So it isn't surprising that most of his work is focused around wildlife, including his real passion for British birds, the subject matter for which Steven is most renowned.

He thinks nothing of spending several hours working on an area, only inches across, to accomplish the required effect. His love for wildlife and fascination for detail makes his paintings almost photographic, giving the subject life and movement true to it's natural form.

Steven uses a variety of painting mediums - gouache, acrylics and Oils, depending on the required effect, all of which allow him to attain accuracy in colour, shape and light.

Steven is renowned for the quality you will find in his paintings, which are becoming much sought after, and are included in many private collections world-wide from South Africa to the United States.

As well as winning a number of awards, Steven was also a finalist in the Daily Mail's "Not the Turner Prize" competition, beating several thousand fellow artists.

He also takes private commissions, and would be more than happy to receive enquiries.
