A watercolour landscape, for a change. I'm not certain what the original is, as there are many similar ones around.

Recently finished watercolour of an elephant's eye. Painted on Baohung 300gsm rough paper.

Put with the Tusks and trunk of an earlier piece, am I gradually building a complete elephant bit by bit?

As it's Save the Elephant Day #SavetheElephantDay, I thought I'd post this watercolour that I finished today. It's based on a photograph by Andrew White. 🐘

Another watercolour bird, this time an oystercatcher. From a photo which I got from somewhere but can't remember where. Sorry to the owner.

Watercolour painting of European Robin - nothing to do with the time of year. Painted while on an Anna Mason course.

After the recent postings of the lynx watercolour painting, here's a lion that I did some time ago. The photo is before I removed the masking tape.

Background added and the masking removed. Some further painting done to accentuate the whiskers. I might use a white gel pen to add a few longer whiskers.

The rain is lashing down here in North Lincolnshire currently, perhaps this will remind us of warmer times to come.

White blossom with green leaves. I remember it being apple blossom but it's 10 years since I painted it and a lot has happened.

Lynx portrait in watercolour. I can't find the name of the originator of the reference.

Still a bit more work to do.
