This website has been created exclusively so that Wildlife and Countryside Artist Dick Twinney can share his passion for the natural history, coast and countryside of his part of the world through his art.
To also make available here online the purchase of limited edition prints from his weekly feature in The Western Morning News daily newspaper.
Welcome, 'Browse at your leisure'
Dick Twinney has loved the Westcountry's wildlife and countryside for as long as he can remember. Originally from Devon, he has now lived and worked in Cornwall for over 38 years. Although his paintings, prints, giftware and books have spread world-wide he still thinks of himself as a local artist passionate about the Westcountry, especially Cornwall and Devon.
The magnificent scenery and the rich and varied wildlife from the high tors or Exmoor to the tip of Lands End all provide a constant source of inspiration and never ending material for Dick's highly detailed artwork.
A real countryman, Dick always spends several hours each day in the 'field' walking with the family dogs over the moors, along the coast or in the local woods, observing wildlife in it's natural habitat, constantly on the look-out for that 'special' chance encounter that can be recreated onto canvas.
