Tyson is a painter whose work reflects her deep feeling for the natural world, without being sentimental. She travels extensively for inspiration for her work – this piece was inspired by a trip to Slovakia. Painting from life, she seeks to capture the essence of her subject. Her painting is a response to the smell, sights and sounds. It emerges from her reactions, feelings and thoughts toward both her subject and the marks she makes. Born in 1973, Esther Tyson was brought up in a small town at the edge of the Lake District, Cumbria. She studied at Carlisle College of Art and Design, Carmarthenshire College of Technology and Art and then London's Royal College of Art. Tyson has exhibited with the Society of Wildlife Artists (SWLA) since 1999 and was elected a full member in 2004.
