Crocus in the Meadows - so sad they have gone already!

I was determined to capture the crocus at the Meadows on film this year, for inspiration for some mixed media drawings. They are such an uplifting sight for the soul somehow.  Cherry blossom coming soon...







Latest Drawings - Blackford Nature Reserve

Here are a few of my latest mixed media drawings inspired by the Blackford Hill & Pond Nature Reserve in South Edinburgh. Click on each drawing to see a close-up view! These drawings attempt to capture the 360 degree experience of walking through this area. What do you think?!



 
 
The next one is more of an experiment, using a mylar top layer over the paper, with a section cut out of the mylar to partially expose the drawing underneath.
