Simon Fry

Born in Cardiff, Simon is a self-taught artist who has recently started showcasing his work online and in local galleries. Simon’s love of nature informs the subject of his art which he creates using coloured pencils. He also works as a graphic designer and has a degree in Art History.

For this ongoing project, Simon is producing a portfolio of bird drawings. Some are common sights throughout the UK, such as the Blackbird, whilst others, such as the Bluethroat, are rarely seen on these shores due to their migratory nature.

These drawings will hopefully offer a glimpse into the wide variety of birdlife around us and why they are worth protecting.
