Still working through ideas with these and enjoying the process but time for some critical evaluation tomorrow I think, so I can start building on the things that are working and reduce the things that are not… also I need more birds to play with… but that’s ok because as you might have noticed I quite like drawing birds 😂😍🤣

Birds & Animals

Yesterday I heard the Cuckoo for the first time this year today he is in fine song, has virtually not stopped singing all morning …

Through towns and villages across a noise landscape … hinking about migration and starlings

This Badger collage is one of the many cards I took into the gallery at Trelissick today, 😊

A little trip to @nttrelissick gardens to drop some new work off at the gallery for the summer show… I can’t wait to see it all transformed, it is always a great exhibition in a gorgeous location!

Beautiful starlings always lift my spirits… I have stood beneath more than 200000 passing over on their way to roost at the @rspb_love_nature nature reserve at Marazion and felt like I was physically levitating in their wake …

Oystercatchers… printmaking and painting collage …loving the process of discovery and exploration…

Another digital collage, of abstract landscape and linocut birds, quite busy but that is kind of the point of it… Lapwings and landscape…

More collaging with some abstract painted backgrounds and printmaking, enjoying the process of descovery…moving the birds around to create stronger compostions which articulate my ideas of wildlife navigating our 21st century world and the wonder they inspire in me…. does it do what I want it to?

A bit of fun with printing pattern over some less than perfect linocut in the studio this afternoon …

Purely printmaking for this one as a completely handcrafted contrast to my digitally created collage yesterday….linocut with monoprint of lovely lapwings always a joy to watch, I see them mostly around the Hayle estuary in cornwall .

So much fun to be had with a computer and a few images… this is a digital collage created from a few monoprinted bird images and an ambstract landscape painting, it really helps me to think about compositions… love it

Collaging,,print making and abstracted landscape painting with a lapwing… thoroughly enjoying this process at the moment.

Owls and woolands on my mind this one was painted sometime ago …

Some shapes and colours I was holding in my mind whilst painting this morning …

Patterned bird and abstract landscape collage play

One of my little lambs was a little unwell last night, he had abit of stomach ache bless him…so I was up checking on him at 2.30 am but he seems ok again this morning … another little ink sketch of him… ❤
