Wildlife & animal illustrator and artist based in Kent, creating expressive artwork inspired by nature, garden birds, pets, big cats and the landscape around me.

I’m Sarah Medway, a wildlife artist and illustrator based in Kent. My work is shaped by careful observation, from the birds just outside my studio to the big cats I’ve spent years studying up close.

About me

I’m a British wildlife and nature illustrator based in Kent, drawing inspiration from the garden birds just beyond my studio, our much-loved dogs and Maine Coon cats, and the magnificent big cats I have spent more than eight years working alongside at The Big Cat Sanctuary, where I now volunteer as a keeper.

I’m also the creator of Crafty Cat, a growing collection of thoughtfully designed, practical guides for cat owners, inspired by my own life with cats.

My background in wildlife photography informs my drawing, allowing me to study movement, structure and character before translating those observations into texture, line and tone. Through my illustration, I celebrate both the extraordinary and everyday encounters with animals, encouraging a closer connection with the natural world.
