My Bio
Welcome! I am Strix and I hope you enjoy the art that I love to create.
I am a professional UK artist and designer with experience working on both commercial and private projects. I undertake a range of commissions, focusing on a refined and detailed style using traditional mediums.
I have a passion for antiquity and the natural world. Following an established tradition I enjoy incorporating allegories and symbolism in much of my work, just waiting to be uncovered.
Enjoy.
