Alison is an artist living in Sydney who completed her Bachelor of Natural History Illustration with Honours in 2018. All aspects of the natural world interest the artist but in her honours year she concentrated her research on the epic international journeys of Australia’s migratory shorebird species, especially the birds that visit the Hunter region over the austral summer.

The artist enjoys collaborating with scientists to illustrate their research.

Botanical art has been a passion since visiting an exhibition of Ferdinand Bauer botanical and natural history watercolours in Sydney in 1998.
