The needle is down and I can finally reveal my latest embroidery. I can’t quite capture all the different colours in the water but I’m too impatient.πŸ˜‰ *All completely freehand stitched without patterns or paint, just lots of time and plenty of threads!πŸͺ‘🌿🌸πŸͺ· #stitchedart #embroidery #thesewingsongbird

Completed embroidery kit featuring a moth, two crescent moons and a bed of flowers

I’ve been so busy knitting blanket squares recently, I’ve been neglecting the embroidery kits that my mum got me for Christmas - finally finished the first one. French knots are a bit variable, the next one will be better! #embroidery

A blue and gold feathered dragon is flying high over a sunset shoreline, there's fish that are jumping in the water right below her. There's a visible coastline in the background, and the sun is low on the horizon, turning the water and sky to oranges and pinks.

A photo of an open, black paper sketchbook, placed on a wooden desk and surrounded by paint brushes, a paint tube, coloured pencils, a snippet of another painting, hag stones, branches, crystals, and leaves. The sketchbook page features two small, sketchy paintings. The top one shows a horizontal branch with gnarled bark in warm yellow, purple, and blue colours. Some yellow grass and small reddish mushrooms grow on top, while web-like glowing blue organisms hang off the underside. The bottom painting shows a broken tree stump in similar colours as the other painting. Little softly glowing cream-coloured flowers grow on its edges.

I’m loving making these circles - ink, paint or natural materials on 8” x8” canvas board.

I love them individually, but I’m also considering framing some in sets of four. They have a different sort of power.

What d’ya reckon?

A kitten scales the front of a closed refrigerator, midway in his progress of climbing on a few magnets stuck to the surface. There are a variety of magnets, such as a guitar, several fruit, a baseball, and stonehenge and a double decker bus. On top of the fridge is a black kitten, peering over the edge, and a jar marked "plastic"

A photo of my right hand holding up a small square painting in front of a concrete tunnel underneath tramway tracks. Greenery surrounds everything. The painting transposes the tunnel and the wall around it into a darker, more overgrown environment, with two round, glowing eyes in the shadows of the tunnel.

Day 5 of #pleinairpril πŸŒ³πŸ–ŒοΈ

A couple days ago I went past this concrete tunnel and instantly knew I had to paint it and add some eerie glowing eyes. 🀭

I fumbled a bit with the colours and lighting but think I managed something decent in the end.^^

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Feathers.

So many feathers of different colours on this recent visitor to the Wandle delta, a male mandarin duck. A bright spring is forecast!

Two page spread of a sketchbook with 13 brown pen drawings of wombats. At the top left page, there is the text 5/23/25 WOMBATS written at the top. Below on the left is the text SOO much struggle with these. There is also a heart drawing. There are 4 wombats on the left page in different poses. On the right page at the top is the text Let's try again! There are 8 drawings of wombats with less shading. There is a mother and baby on the top left, and various other poses. At the bottom right is a drawing of a mother wombat from the back with the text Baby in the Back! written on her butt, and a baby peeking out between her legs. There is also cube shaped poop labeled and drawn here and there.
