I love the most beautiful and strange and fantastical creatures in nature & fiction.
Here’s a Carolina parakeet. This species has been extinct since 1918 but I felt the need to paint it- a beautiful lost bird.

Occasionally we get tiny Goldcrests in the garden, hunting for insects amongst the evergreens. They’re resident in Britain, but some Goldcrests cross the North Sea to escape the harsher continental winters; people used to believe they rode on the backs of migrating Woodcocks. (watercolour)

My painting of a yellow- headed amazon. This species is endangered in the wild due to the pet trade. Let’s hope things improve for them in 2026
