Here’s some rare proof that I’m a real life human homosapien person being! At least on the outside I am, inside I’m a concoction of whimsical madness, fairy dust, bird related content and a hint of morbid curiosity 😆

I’ve also finished this little 8x10 titled ‘mournful minder’ - our watchful nature spirit guardians come in all forms, we are never alone 🖤

Hello! 👋 Here’s a little work in progress snippet of my latest painting titled ‘Thwarted’.

I know it happens every year…but I can still never get used to the absolute abundance of dark that creeps in!

I am ALL for cosy nights, candles, fairy lights, blankets and hot chocolate, but my fellow artist brethren’s in the northern hemisphere know the struggle to get things done before the daylight expires! But our creativity lights the way, always!🕯

‘Lost in Translation’ Oil on 12x20” Panel, 2

‘Lost in Translation’ Oil on 12x20” Panel, 2021 🐺

It *may* be a little bit cliché, but I don’t care, I’m going to go ahead and say it…I’ve always considered wolves as one of my ‘spirit’ animals, maybe I’m a bit of a lone wolf myself…but I think that’s because they’ve been steeped in local culture and lore from my home town of Bury St Edmunds!

A wolf was supposedly meant to have guarded the head of St Edmund when he was executed by viking raiders.

They cut off his head and threw it deep in to the forest, where his followers were lead after the wolf shouted “here, here, here!” They were able to reunite his head with his body, which miraculously became reattached!

True or not, you decide! But this painting is based on one of my experiences (not an isolated one, I must admit)…but being an avid sky watcher, I have seen some pretty inexplainable things in my time. 🛸 (and NO, they aren’t satellites, or a plane 😉)

Have you ever seen anything weird in the sky? Tell me! 👇
