Welcome Sue , superb set of paintings, well done. Merry Christmas.🎄

Great work Sue - love it!

Thank you so much for all the lovely comments - I was only allowed to upload 4 works today, I will post more soon!

Another exceptional painting Sue and another bird from my favourite group of birds.

Excellent - we have these charming, intelligent birds nesting in a disused chimney of the old pile of a house I live in: a previous tenant didn't like them: stood on her balcony and cried "go away, we don't want you here!".... silly girl; jackdaws don't care whether you want them or not. I find them entirely beguiling - love to watch them wheeling around in the sky, perching on bits of fence and chattering at me: I hope they know I DO want them here! You've caught their essence in your painting - tough, resourceful, clever even cunning, and just likeable.

Lovely painting

I am a mainly self taught artist based in Bristol, UK. I work in oils, acrylics and watercolour, and I also love printmaking! I work in very thin layers and work full-time, so it often takes me months to complete a painting!!
