A photo showing, in the foreground, a goose standing on a dead tree log on the surface of a lake. It is flapping its wings and they are extended backwards. In the background dead trees and branches, with warm glowing light coming from the top right corner. The overall color palette is mostly warm browns and ochres.

a close-up photo of dried up lime tree seeds dangling from a thin branch. The seeds at the tip of the branch are lit by warm sunlight. The background is out of focus. The overall color palette is browns and ochres.

a close up photo of catkins with water droplets hanging from their tips. The color palette is browns and ochres.

A photo of a group of cackling geese resting amidst twisted branches and twigs on the surface of a lake. The branches are covered in a thin layer of snow. In the foreground on the right side of the photo, an out of focus goose. The mirror like surface of the water reflects warm golden light. The overall color palette is browns and warm ochres, with some muted grays where the snow is.

digital painting of a grey squirrel

the terrible beast - portrait of a grey squirrel

When I find a photo with weird lighting in my camera roll I am cursed with the compulsion to make a study of it. Fur is kind of fun to paint tho.

photo of a print of a digital painting of a magpie.

photo of a print of a digital painting of a magpie. What is lost with each reproduction?

Cursing myself for choosing colours that mean I have to learn how to adjust the white balance on my phone's camera

(also astonished by the repro capabilities of the print shop! this purple! ridiculous!!)
