I painted this snowy cycling scene last winter but didn’t get around to finishing it. I’ve added a few touches and am about to frame it now to include in an exhibition. It’s late in the day on a snowy ride on Long Mynd, Shropshire. 70x50cm, soft pastel. #cycling #snow #landscape #originalart

The full edition of my barn owl reduction linocut has sold out — but I have three unique test prints that came out of the colour-testing process.
Each one is hand printed, one-of-a-kind, and will never be recreated.
Sold mounted and ready to frame

The detail and texture on this Hahnemühle William Turner paper are incredible.
