#islamicartweek2025 Fascinating lesson yesterday with wonderful artist Aziza Iqbal drafting a geometric motif from Masjid-I-Sayyad Mosque, Isfahan. Plenty of mistakes, but I’ve found that I enjoy the process and geometry more than the result, which surprised me. Can’t wait for more #islamicgeometry

Today, it’s a cute little #acrylic #gouache study of a #mossy #ash #tree trunk outside my cottage. I love the pattern and colours that the #lichens and #mosses bring to it.

A quick watercolour study of a little sprig of Common Ivy (hedera helix) that attached itself to my boots earlier today. Getting back into wet painting after working digitally for the last few years. #watercolour #ivy #hedera #illustration #botanicalart #botanicalillustration

I’m living the dream, folks. Studying C3rd BCE Roman terracotta temple decorations, in bed, with three whippets.
Technically, I’m wearing one whippet. It’s really hard to type like this, but I thought you folks might appreciate my dedication ;)

Well, it’s raining and windy here in U.K. as Storm Agnes touches down. So naturally my #sketchbook page today has me yearning for sunnier days and epic sunsets.
