Enrique Lacuesta

Dr. Enrique Lacuesta, doctor and artist born in Spain has been dedicated to the artistic field in a self-taught formation from an early age. He has been investigating and using most of the well-known techniques like oil painting, watercolours, gouache, pencil on paper and inks. In addition, he developped his own techniques in illustrations, these being unique worldwide.

As a result of the combination of his medical and art professions, he has managed to transfer his knowledge of anatomy to his paintings in order to attempt a perfect harmony in his illustrations. This is as a result of a meticulous examination of proportions and anatomical features related to each species.

As a specialist in mammals, he primarily focuses on big game - the "Big Five", the big cats, antelopes, elephants and bovids.

He has worked for several hunting publications, most prominent being his work in Spain's first big game hunting magazine, 'Hunters' in which he has been an artist, cartoonist and writer since its founding in 1997. His illustrations created for the American editor of Safari Press are particularly remarkable.
