Child Art

Alister Simpson, AAEA, has been recognized as the leading equine artist in Australia for over three decades. From the age of two, Alister has always had a passion for drawing horses. He studied art in Auckland, New Zealand and London, and veterinary anatomy over a period of 4 years.

He is able to capture a stunning and outstanding effect either in his oils, watercolours, gouache or pencil, whether it is an exciting racing scene, a thoroughbred in a classic pose, mares and foals in rural scenes or on the polo field. His skilled draftsmanship and great sensitivity of each work of art depicts the subtle details of the horse.

Alister’s skills have earned him significant international acclaim, and he is an invited participating full member of the prestigious American Academy of Equine Art. This enables him to exhibit at the Academy, to jury for exhibitions and to teach workshops.
