Jason Morgan

In his own words. "I strive to paint wildlife as accurately as I can, so where possible I like to see the animals in their natural environment, and this has, of course, lead to some very exciting journeys and experiences. It's these exhilarating and very personal experiences that I believe help me so much in my portrayal of wildlife in it's natural environment.
