Welcome to our independent art licensing website.
Our collection of British wildlife illustrations spans over a thousand different plant, animal and fungi species – each brought to life through the talented brush strokes of Lynette Merrick, available for short or long term licensing.
Meet the artist
Lynette Merrick may be considered a veteran of the ecological industry. Her professional life was defined by her role as a teacher and a field studies officer, with four decades involved in primary science education, where she was inspired by both the natural world, and the challenges of teaching the smallest of minds about the tiny insects, invertebrates and bugs that call our woodlands, gardens and parks their home.
Lynette’s professional life has run naturally alongside her role as an ecologist and wildlife illustrator.
Her collection of British wildlife illustrations were developed and designed to produce field study identification guides, which Lynette sells via Gatekeeper Educational Ltd. She remains actively involved in ecological education and provides workshops and teacher training days for The Association for Science Education and Colleges.
