Carer and beginner artist trying to find time for art.
Draw and paint mostly flora and fauna - into birds at the moment - and occasionally portraits and landscapes.

Carrion Crow
A5 pad
This was probably my most challenging bird to paint especially the eye … 😝

I’ve had many people ask the last couple days if I sell my art, and where. I do sell it, I’ve been a professional artist for the last 5+ years. I sell on Etsy, and on my own Website.

The woodpecker I posted on Friday isn’t for sale as it’s for an exhibition, but there will be prints available :)

Happy Saturday! It's the weekend! The best part of this morning's 7° sunrise was the pre-show looking to the north. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

Here’s what our sightings map looks like so far for 2026! We’d love to cover as much of Scotland as possible, so keep an eye out for both red and grey squirrels if you live in or visit one of the gaps.

Submit your squirrel sightings here: buff.ly/k6ANjgX

Today's #birbfest bird is oystercatcher with no further instructions so I picked a Magellanic Oystercatcher because it had a lot of black which I thought would be easier to draw (when will I learn that black is never really black? 😂)

#BirbFest2026
ref photo by user paulomascaretti on inaturalist
Digital painting of a magellanic oystercatcher, a medium-size shore bird, in profile facing right, standing on smooth gray rocks on a beach with a gray sea to sky indicated in the background. The bird has a long, pointed bright orange beak with yellow at the tip, a yellow eye, and light pink legs and feet. It is mostly black, shining with iridescence, except for a white belly and a small group of white feathers on its wing.

The Gryfalcon for this month's #BirdWhisperer
Mine on the left (digital charcoal) and my mom's on the right (traditional watercolor). I will talk her into making a Bsky page one of these days.

Digital charcoal. Gryfalcon seen from behind, with their head turned to our right. They are looking over their shoulder. Standing on the knobby remains of a still upright tree, branches coming off it are stumps. The background is a blurry green suggestion a forest. Watercolor.

Happy 10th Anniversary to the #BirdWhisperer art challenge. This is my late entry for January of a gyrfalcon found in the Arctic coasts, North America and Siberia. It took me forever drawing the wings - I hope I accounted for them all 🤪

A face reduced to shadow, pressure, residue.
Charcoal doesn’t describe him—it remembers him.
An inward gaze heavy enough to leave marks.

— The Asylum Art -
Art and words by Yves
#CharcoalDrawing #MaleFigure #blueskyart #ContemporaryArt #cptsd
Closed, Yet Listening is a charcoal study of interior gravity. The male figure is rendered not as portrait but as surface—skin becoming paper, breath becoming smudge. The closed eye resists spectacle, turning the image inward, while dense lashes and compressed shadows suggest weight, fatigue, and unspoken vigilance. Charcoal is allowed to remain imperfect: rubbed, scarred, and grainy. Light does not illuminate so much as hesitate. The face feels paused between thought and withdrawal, presence and erasure. Rather than capturing likeness, the work records pressure—of time, of feeling, of consciousness folding in on itself. It is a quiet image, but not a calm one.

SEEING IS BELIEVING

DHS claims the car being chased rammed the ICE vehicle. The video shows the opposite.

📌 A father and son, a US citizen, are chased. The teen is beaten and seriously injured. The father is deported.

DHS lied. The video tells the truth. Excellent reporting by Antonia Hylton.
