My heraldic bestiary is a collection of portraits of fascinating creatures. A bestiary is a medieval manuscript or book that describes and illustrates real and mythical animals.
By painting marvellous creatures in the heraldic tradition, I emphasise their role as power animals and protectors. The shield has always served the fighter in defence, it is both a barrier and a weapon. Portrayed in a shield, each of my beasts reveals its true nature and protects those who feel connected to it.
