Mandy Shepherd...Artist
Mandy Shepherd is one artist who simply doesn't hang around! Her contagious vitality, enthusiasm for life and sense of humour have all contributed to a career that has produced ambition for opportunity. Her portfolio is one of striking contrasts. From proud portraits to delicate watercolours of her wildlife subjects to heavy battleships on military manoeuvres she is one of few artists who are so diverse in their subject material.
With a deep passion for wildlife and conservation her early work and exhibitions were dominated by wildlife subjects and it was the wildlife, in 1996, that took her 8.000 miles from home to the Falkland Islands to write and illustrate her first book "The Falkland Islands an artists portfolio"
In the last ten years Mandy has travelled to Bosnia, Kosovo, Brunei, Oman and Iraq on commission, painting aircraft, ships old and new and the working life of military personnel. It has been an adventurous enterprise but Mandy has never lost her roots or commitment to conservation and is a trustee of Falklands Conservation and vice-President of the David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation. When she's not painting Mandy takes a number of wildlife tours to interesting places "off the beaten track".
