ABOUT THE ARTIST

Since he was a child, Michael Hampton has

always had a strong interest in animals and

the natural world. At the age of 12, his interest

in wildlife & nature took on a new approach

with his first camera in hand. His primary

focus is to portray wild animals in a respectful

manner to better educate the public of their

natural surroundings. ''Hopefully, my prints

can help people understand, appreciate and

admire an aspect of our natural world normally

overlooked.''
