One of the most famous paintings in the world is the brown hare, which Albrecht Dürer painted in watercolor with extraordinary detail. The notoriety in this case goes so far that the mind's eye can create an image without ever seeing the artwork. Albrecht Dürer even succeeded in this realistic method of depiction, although he never saw many of his models in real life. Wildlife painter Mark Adlington focuses his artistic output entirely on depictions of animals. Unlike Dürer, each cycle of paintings is based on intensive character studies. Adlington immerses himself in the habitat of the animals and makes countless sketches with the patience of a photographer. In his studio, he brings the wild animals to life and breathes into them an extraordinary expressiveness that captivates viewers.
Mark Adlington grew up on the west coast of Ireland. Between rugged cliffs and gentle bays, the coastline allows a glimpse of the vastness of the Atlantic. Adlington was magically drawn to the seals and seals that make their habitat off the Emerald Isle. He observed them and began making drawings as a child. The Irish artist was captivated by the similarity between the animals and the uniqueness of each individual animal. Painting and a love of animals made Adlington want to pursue an artistic education. He went to Scotland and first studied art history and later devoted himself to fine arts in London. After obtaining his academic degrees, Mark Adlington decided to pursue a professional career at Sotheby's auction house. It was only after several years of professional experience that Mark ventured into freedom as an independent artist.
Since that decision, the artist has traveled the world. He lived with Gavin Maxwell and his otters in Scotland, illustrating the conservationist's life story. Adlington went on an expedition to the polar world and studied polar bears in their habitat. The artist was arguably in the most beautiful places on earth until the most recent phase of his artistic period, when he turned his attention to the wildlife of Africa. Adlington traces the intricacies of the animals, capturing their movements and developing a painting that shows an excerpt from their habitat. These are magnificent depictions that speak of the artist's love and respect. Mark Adlington is never unprepared. His visits and approaches to the animals are done in close consultation with wildlife conservationists and rangers. As a silent observer, the artist approaches the animals and captures their movements, gestures and interactions. Mark Adlington has captured his experiences and special moments in the cold polar zone and the regions of Africa in books. The illustrations are complemented by contributions from animal rights activists and supporters of the projects, showing how unique the world's habitats are.
