Very pleased I finally have a scanner, trying to get to grips with it. Thought I'd do my first test run on something I am currently working on.

Some english longhorns up to english longhorn business. The little calves were soooo adorable. Though they were obivously little sketchy because of the young ones so we didn't hang around for their comfort.

Walked up to Christ Hospital (horsham countryside, not the school) this morning and walked through a wonderful see of wild garlic. I love the smell and very yummy stuff. It carpeted the whole woodland area #spring #springflowers #forage #wildfoods #woodland

Started my ancient woodland indicators collection. Each indicator I do will get at least two designs. One in more greyscale and one in colour. Hopefully. Will also post information about each indicator when completed. #nature #woodland #plants #art #artist
An unfinished drawing of a plant called Dog's Mercury. The background is a toned earthy colour, the unfinished drawing is done with fineliner outlines and some graphite shading has started to be added.

Sadly I probably won't be having a stall anymore. Lost my ride there. But if you're in the area, please do go and support the stall holders who will attending. Or just go and see some nice plants. Have a tea or coffee

little bee. i'm assuming one of the solitary bees but there is a style of bee that i struggle to tell whose who.
A photograph of a small bee resting on a window pane. A close of the same bee resting of the window pane, but the fuzzy hairs around its body parts are most visible seeming to be an light pale orangey colour with what looks like even lighter patches.

Had a successful day at yesterday's market, I went thinking I wouldn't sell much to selling everything I had taken with me. Sooooo now I have insanely busy week drawing more designs onto notebooks in both A5 and mini sizes for another market this Saturday

Another bookmark design but this one is of no specific plant. #art #artist #plant #drawing #leaves
two kraft bookmarks with hand drawn designs of no specific kind done in black ink. The top is more a rounded triangle shape with a line through the middle with lines coming from that line, with some areas coloured in black, some areas left blank, and some areas filled with dots. The bottom one is slender and long in shape designed the same way as the top one

was struggling to sketch today so went for a walk to shake it off and get air and picked myself up some nice oak #leaves to sketch. there's something about oak #trees that I love, I don't know what it is. (even if yesterday I took a falling acorn to the face lol) #oak #fall

we desperately need more rain though. the local river is really struggling, in some places there's only a few tiny streams of water. people may love the sunshine but rain is necessary in so many ways. #climatechange #rivers

The highlight of my trip. this little grebe. I'd watched it try and get to eat its own fish, while being pursued by the baby it had been encouraging to feed itself. This is after much pestering and noise and the parent i think is trying to get some peace lol badly taken picture

a not great picture of a cormorant. Instead of the usual wings out still, it was a very flappy character. one of the swans.

Today's Thursday trip was to warnham nature reserve. Bird hides are good rain shelters, not so much the wind though. lol A view of the Millpond
