  • Superb large original 'Big Cat' pastel painting, depicting a profile portrait of a Snow Leopard, entitled 'A Storm is Coming', this fabulous original work is by the English photorealistic artist Valerie Simms (b.1965 ).
     
    Valerie Simms was born in Banbury, Oxfordshire, and only studied art, design and illustration as a mature student, graduating in 1997. Now working from a studio in her Oxfordshire home, she has always had a love of portraiture and is fascinated by facial features, both human and animal, she  builds each composition in pastels, often starting with the eyes, which she likes using for their softness and smoothness. Every detail of fleece, fur and feather is perfectly executed, and to achieve this she has built up a portfolio of close up animal photography with the highest possible degree of clarity to use as the basis for each individual composition.
