Ring Plover on Snail Shells -
This is my latest bird painting, I finished last week. It has been one of my most ambitious, and detailed, taking three weeks off and on and painting four other quick paintings in between. It is acrylic on paper. I am hoping to enter it in the Patchings Exhibition this year.

Like all three of these paintings but this is my favouirite. The plover is lovely, well painted,and all those shells well depicted but they would have driven me to distraction!! An excellent piece of work, good luck if you enter it in Patchings.

A lovely painting and a lot of work gone into this he's almost lost amongst the beautiful shells that is the beauty of it. Excellent.

Thanks for all your kind comments on this pic. I loved painting the snail shells, a bit fussy and time consuming but all the time exciting and intrigueing to see where they were going.

Thanks Lucy, it was good to meet you. I was wondering if you could send me your email. I was also wondering if your parents were moving into the new house, which belonged to some of our tenants who rented our house out. They were called Rori and Mairi. I would be interested to know.
