I'm Chloë Donovan, a British veterinarian and artist with a mission to help animals across the globe, combining both aspects of my career. I am immensely privileged to have a vocation that allows me to explore the world whilst providing veterinary services to animals along my way.
My goal is to use art to tell the stories of those animals - sharing my memories and experiences with you, so you as the viewer feel like you've met these beautiful animals too. I want to bring the wild home.
I donate a proportion of profits from sales of originals and prints to organisations that operate out in the field to protect animals, and work towards long-term solutions to tackle their greatest threats.
latest news



As well as learning a great deal about the medicine and management of some of my favourite species (including sloths, tapirs and jaguars) I was also able to take some time to closely observe and sketch them - lessons I am excited to put into practice on canvas.

I have so many plans for Nepal-inspired wildlife paintings that I'm so excited to get started on. I hope to raise funds for some of the brilliant charities I have the privilege to meet out there including the Himalayan Animal Rescue Trust (HART) and Stand Up 4 Elephants.

![There are four species of monkey in Costa Rica 🇨🇷 and I have been lucky enough to photograph all four in the wild in various places 🐒
1️⃣ Panamanian white-faced capuchin (𝘊𝘦𝘣𝘶𝘴 𝘪𝘮𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘰𝘳)
[vulnerable]
2️⃣ Central American squirrel monkey (𝘚𝘢𝘪𝘮𝘪𝘳𝘪 𝘰𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘪)
[𝗘𝗡𝗗𝗔𝗡𝗚𝗘𝗥𝗘𝗗]
3️⃣ Geoffroy's spider monkey (𝘈𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘨𝘦𝘰𝘧𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘺𝘪)
[𝗘𝗡𝗗𝗔𝗡𝗚𝗘𝗥𝗘𝗗]
4️⃣ Mantled howler (𝘈𝘭𝘰𝘶𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘢 𝘱𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘢)
[vulnerable]
2/4 of these species are classified by the IUCN as endangered, with populations decreasing due to threats to their habitats such as urbanisation and agriculture (especially logging and palm oil plantations). These intelligent creatures are also exploited by the illegal pet trade, as monkeys are all over the world. It's because of this exploitation that I have had the opportunity to get hands on with the care of some of these species, but I would much rather only ever see them through my camera lens in the wild.
