About Ruth

Ruth is an artist, writer and marine biologist. She has a PhD in humpback whale ecology and behaviour and has studied the whales in the Caribbean, Tonga, Alaska, Hawaii, Antarctica and Canada. Ruth has always loved art and has sold her work around the world, including through exhibitions on boats in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. She's been commissioned to create charity cards for the Marine Conservation Society and artwork for an elephant sanctuary as well as numerous private commissions. She regularly donates art to Viva! which is sold at their annual Dinner and art auction on the River Thames (see Ruth's Viva! art page and why she is vegan). Ruth has also been commissioned to produce giant abstracts for business clients.

Ruth has written several academic courses and non-fiction books. She has just completed a popular science marine biology book (published by Icon Books in Feb 2026), and is currently writing a medical thriller series, featuring surgeon, Daniel Kendrick.
