Winter and Summer
Hi there!
Here's a little illustration to mark the first day of Winter.
And a little illustration to warm your heart with a reminder that Summer will soon be on its way.

Christmas is coming!
Wood Paintings
Here are some more new pieces I have been working on. I have been painting onto a wood surface. I think they look lovely! The wood shows the paint work beautifully.
The painting on the large piece of wood is from my painting of 'Jacqueline's Tea Party'. The small piece of wood shows a painting of 'Little Red Riding Hood'.

Christmas Decorations
Hi! I have been busy working on something new and different!
I have painted illustrations onto wooden hearts and children's vintage building blocks.
All have a 'wlidlife' theme with owls, foxes, toadstools, hedgehogs, robins and deer. They would look beautiful hanging from a Christmas tree!

Flower Drawings
I love all flowers and wanted to make some simple, detailed pencil sketches of various types.
I used a 6B and a H pencil.
