Thought I would paint the wild or dog roses today, there's lots around our village meadow, with rose hips in autumn.

And today it’s common vetch for my #drawingaugust art. Growing in our village meadow along with bush and tufted vetch.

Today’s #drawingaugust, is the bird’s foot trefoil. A great plant for pollinators in the Vyner park meadow.

It’s a small white butterfly on clover for today’s #drawingaugust. There’s both red and white clover in the Vyner Park Meadow and lots of different butterflies.

The same tree as yesterday, but from a different angle. Ham woods, Plymouth.

I really enjoy working in the ridges in the bark.

The fabulous sneezewort is today's #drawingaugust #watercolour.

You can make sneezing powder from the dried leaves. 🤧

It's #DrawingAugust time again so here's a quick sketch of a slumbering Tess the cocker spaniel. A rare quiet moment.

Here's the last of this year's garden snowdrops, growing in our rockery. There's lots of bees buzzing round them.

High sea off the coast of Iona, painted quickly from memory after a kayak crossing from the Isle of Mull. A sense of being deep in the trough of a big Atlantic swell.
