The Wildlife Of Ireland Illustrated Map

A self-directed passion project documenting the vast array of indigenous, introduced and migrating wildlife in the green island of Ireland. I have a love of animals and spent over two months on this drawing, consulting the help of my zoologist friend Geraldine Breen, to make the information as scientifically accurate as possible.

John has not stopped drawing things ever since he was the tender age of 3. Born in Derry, Northern Ireland, he is a graduate of University of Ulster, Belfast with an Honours degree in Visual Communication.
His art is inspired by interesting people, nature and wildlife, architecture, cult films, comic books, 1980’s cartoons and those big space ships from Star Wars.

He does not plan to stop drawing anytime soon.
