Portrait & Wildlife Artist
Hello! My name is Kerry Rigby, from Stoke-on-Trent. After studying Art and Design at Newcastle-Under-Lyme College I went into a full time Print / Graphic Design Career which I loved for many years. In 2019 I had a long break from Graphic Design and Print due having my daughter and lets face it; there wasn't much going on during lockdown! So I decided to get back to the drawing board after approximately, 20 years! From the moment I put my pencils to paper I fell back in love with Art. I have always enjoyed producing portraits from a young age, mainly pencil sketches but I've been experimenting and developing my skills with colour and can't get enough!
I absolutely love drawing & painting realistic portraits; from people to pets and other wildlife. I have been overwhelmed by the amount of support I have received since I started my first colour portrait; so I decided to create my small business, specialising in coloured pencil and pastel painting. I adore all animals and love creating pieces that people will treasure forever.
