Collage of a few photos, two of a watercolour painting of an African grey parrot, and two photos of the parrot itself. In one photo the parrot is missing a lot of his chest feathers, and the other his chest feathers are all growing back in. The painting shows the parrot front-on, looking at the viewer with his regrowing feathers visible.

This is Ollie!
I met him several years ago, he was rescued by a colleague of mine who was working on his feather plucking problems, and was making such good progress!

Photo of an A4 watercolour painting of a pair of clownfish/anemonefish. It is in vibrant shades of red, orange and gold, with drips and splatters of paint around it, whilst white and black ink are used to define details and lines. In the background is wood grain and artificial plants.

I've been busy at work lately with an aquatics conference, and being tasked with planning how we stock ~800L of fresh + marine tanks in the near future!

(Yes, we will be getting more clownfish)

A photo of four wooden discs with holes in them. Each disc has a gouache painting of each of the following animals: One of a very small chameleon. "Theresa" Another of a young black and white sheep looking at the viewer. "Hamish" Another of three small brown and white striped mice sat in a row looking at the photographer. "Snap", "Crackle" and "Pop" The last a pair of mandarin ducks with the male in full breeding colours; lots of red, orange, white and green. "Tango" and “Clementine”

Gouache is more relaxing than watercolours, but then I tend to get a bit more hung up on making things look perfect.

Last year I wanted to experiment by painting some of the animals at work on some wood discs!

Photo of a watercolour painting of a shoebill stork, in green and blue with splatters and drips of paint around it.

You know what, this deserves a post all on it's own.
This is possibly one of my favourite of my splatter watercolours! ❤️ Do you agree? Or do you have a different favourite?
This gorgeous bird is a shoebill, and they are super cool!

When I first started these line drawings, it actually was a bit of an experiment as I hadn't tried illustrations in this style before, but I love how they turned out.

So first I present, a lil red panda! <3

Photo of an A5 watercolour painting of a linoleated/barred parakeet in shades of yellow, hanging upside down comically.

A unique trait of linnies is their tendency to just hang upside down or sideways.
