Artist Reference Images
High-quality digital reference photographs of wild animals and birds, licensed for you to draw, paint or illustrate from.
A share of every purchase supports wildlife conservation.
What You Get
-
You'll receive a digital reference file for download, ready to open and work from as soon as your payment is confirmed.
-
Every image is field photography of a genuinely wild animal, captured with the eye of a working wildlife photographer for light, form and behaviour, not a staged studio shot, not AI-generated, and not repurposed stock photography.
-
Files are prepared specifically for reference use: sized for close study on screen rather than for commercial printing.
-
Limited edition images are not included in this licence, keeping those pieces exclusive to print collectors.
-
Looking for a species or image that isn't currently in the library? If it isn't a limited edition piece, get in touch and I'll let you know if it can be added.
-
Crediting the reference photograph is a condition of this licence; full wording is set out below.
-
AI tools aren't permitted with any image licensed here, at any stage of your process.
