Terence Lambert is a bird and wildlife artist working from Wales. Terences has had the good fortune to have been commissioned on projects that have taken him to some of the world’s most exciting countries. In 1984, while working with The World Pheasant Association, he spent two months in spring and autumn in the Himalayas. climbing to eighteen thousand feet and looking up to the awesome summit of Mt. Everest eleven thousand feet above me. In the same year he walked the deserts of Oman, studying and sketching many desert species while researching a project commissioned by Shell Oil Company.
These paintings were given as a gift to the Sultan of Oman and were to become Shell’s 1988 calendar. Although these experiences have influenced many paintings, the core of my output has come as a result of choosing to live in Wales. The diversity of the Mid-Wales landscape is so very unique. Within a thirty minute drive from his studio, he have access to coast and estuary, mountain and moorland and some of the most beautiful river valleys in the whole of the British Isles, all of which are an endless supply of inspiration to him.
