This snowflake-like nature print was created using natural materials. Leaves and petals were used with soft pastels to create the print in purple and turquoise on a green background.

This is 'Woody' the budgerigar, one of my pet portraits

A crisp winter's day. The snow crunching under your feet and the low winter sun casting cool shadows across the snow. A great subject to paint.

I used watercolours for this delicate water lily, using wet in wet effects for the background, tipping the paper and allowing the paint to run.

Waxwings tend to only be in our area when it is a cold winter, so it is quite special to see them. On this occasion they were near a local nature reserve eating berries and close enough to photograph, which gave me the reference material for this watercolour painting.

I managed to get a quick snapshot of this little rabbit whilst we were walking on a local nature trail. I used a mixture of techniques for the background including wet in wet, resist techniques (masking fluid and candle wax) and salt. For the detail on the rabbit I used coloured pencils.

The scene is a local walking and cycling trail in Ilkeston, Derbyshire that we often visit through the seasons. Enjoy the tree lined path, the sound of the birds and being out in the fresh air.
