Semaphore artist
Katrina Allan graduated with distinctions from Advertising and Graphic Design

and commercial illustrator. She now runs her own graphic design company and, in
her spare time, she paints canvases to fill the walls of her
house. Katrina held a very successful first solo exhibition of acrylic

had a love of animals from a very young age, growing up in a menagerie of
birds, cats, reptiles and dogs. A member of the Adelaide Zoo for the last 25
years she now lives with her own every growing collection of animals and birds.
Conservation
Statement
"I love to replicate
the beautiful detail found in the feathers and fur of exotic creatures,
bringing a little of the wild in to our homes. In doing so, I hope to raise
awareness of the delicate balance of these animals in their natural
habitat"
