Your collages are very skilled and so is this picture.

Love this one Christine - he has a cheeky expression - a bit like the one who waits for me most mornings. When I go out to feed the birds, it is sitting close by the seed bin waiting patiently and then demands, quite loudly, waitress service of its own special meal!

Thank you so much Ros, Debs, Dawn and Julie. I love the 3D effect of collage and find doing them small scale in a sketchbook a good way of experimenting with mixed media.

What I like about your work is that you not stuck in a mould - this is both different and appealing.

Another collage from my sketchbook. The background is paper I purchased from the flagship Paperchase store in Charing Cross Road, London, they have a wonderful selection of handmade papers in their art materials department on the top floor, the blackbird is painted on Khadi paper.
