About Clive Gifford

Clive lives in Manchester, UK. When Howard Gray was younger, he was always content with a few sheets of paper and whatever else he could lay his hands upon to make his mark. Growing up, he was also captivated by animals and nature. Howard pursued Art throughout school but, after much deliberation, he decided to pursue a career in science, completing a BSc in Zoology and then a PhD in Arabian bottlenose dolphin genetics! Now a doctor in genetics, Howard has returned to his dream career of becoming an illustrator. Howard lives in Durham, UK.
