Inspired by nature
Born in 1965, Mark Adlington is one of Bridgeman’s most popular artists, renowned for his spirited, graceful wildlife drawings. His research has taken him from Spain to the Arabian Peninsula and the coastline of the British Isles, recording the animals in their natural environment. Most recently, he went to Mongolia to study the famous Przewalski horses. Mark grew up with wild otters in Ireland, and also studied British otters in the New Forest Wildlife Park and Otter Rehabilitation Centre. He will be showing his new artwork at the John Martin Gallery’s ‘Still Bright Water’ group exhibition from 18th July – 8th August 2014 to coincide with the centenary edition publication.
