Welcome to Wren, Illustrated! the online studio of Ren Wright!

As a self-taught artist raised in rural Alabama, I’ve always been inspired by the complex ecosystems found all around us. From moving turtles across the road as a child to drafting reintroduction plans for extirpated species as a young professional, I have always found my meaning in conservation work. Currently, I work as an endangered species biologist on a team focused on restoring fire-adapted ecosystems on the Conecuh National Forest, in the heart of the Coastal Plain of Alabama.

Spending every day surrounded by the incredible diversity of our wild places is my greatest inspiration, and I am passionate about using artwork to inspire the public to care about the nature that surrounds us.
