Jackie Cox S.O.F.A.

I inherited my talent for art from my grandparents, both of whom were freelance illustrators, so I was always drawing from a young age. When I left school to become an animal nurse at a veterinary practice in Margate, I found that the overnight patients made marvelous subjects and I started doing animal portraits". I love the challenge of capturing the enigmatic nature of 'the cat' concentrating on their eyes and supple movement.
