Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #singing. This is a Common Reed Warbler (Acrocephalus scirpaceus) from last July. It is probably in North Africa right now.

Its so funny catching up on Ninjago lore, cause when i left off Zane fucking died (he got better)

Jumping back into the lore is 31 flavors of WHAT'S HAPPENING

Just one more pastel flower painting for now. A carnation and freesia painting with a couple of anenomes and some ivy plus a shell that has been in several artworks. This one dates from the millenium and is on someone else's wall. See alt txt.

I never know whether to call a work in pastel a painting or a drawing. I suppose it's a painting if it has broad areas of colour and a drawing if it is mainly linear (I tend to use Conté sticks for line work). I have used pastel since I was a child so that's a long time!

Feeling safe sharing this photo with you now 😁

Pretty sure the "What is the maximum number of robin photos you can post in a year" counter, was set back to zero 2 days ago

Happy new year robin to you all 🤗

A recent oil on canvas painted in my garden size 61cmX86cm "Two women at a garden table". It was one of my entries to the Cambridge Drawing Society 2024. Needs to be a bit more subtle in its tone I think looking back on it.
#art #oiloncanvas #summergarden
Gives me a bit of a shock looking back on this one. While I'm quite pleased with it I think it lacks subtlety and goes too much for the high colour key. A little more restraint required for this year with more carefully modulated tones and lest finicky detail.

Split second sunrise. This sunrise had a life span of ten minutes. The clouds moved in quickly and blanketed the sky for the rest of the day.

The different stages of the beautiful Julia’s Rose. Later flowering than most in my garden but also highlighting the transitory nature of beauty and the difference that time of day makes to the colour.

Buds and blooms of Julia’s rose taken from the same bush in my garden. A bloom that highlights the slightly coffee coloured tinge to the gentle pink of Julia’s rose
