Steve Nayar has been a nine times finalist for the Wildlife Artist of the Year competition and focuses on portraying endangered species. In this episode, he talks about his family’s lineage, what he learnt during his career in design and advertising, how painting a domestic cat sparked a change in direction, how a way of seeing is the key to his paintings, how horrified he was at the knowledge that so much of our wildlife is endangered, how photography aids his process, how he aims to paint the soul of his subjects and how his paintings can in some ways act as mirrors.
