It's been fascinating to work on this series of Collage Hares, giving me so much freedom to choose the colours and make the printed paper to use for the cutouts. It's very painstaking work carefully retaining the anatomical structure while going all out with exuberant colours. Hare 6 Collage on paper 46x61cm Framed
Highland Cow Pastel on paper 86x66 framed One of my favourites, she still grazes in the fields around me on Dartmoor and produces beautiful calves every year.
Collage Handcut paper 87x66cms, framed I often come across hooded crows on my travels in Scotland. Such sturdy and soundly built creatures as they stomp across the land, an air of mischief and curiosity about them.

Collage on paper 90x70cms, paper size Another member of the beguiling Corvid family, and, like the crows and ravens, also known for its intelligence and problem-solving abilities. Collage seems to give them the extra heft they deserve: this one is made from hand cut paper pieces in all the blues and blacks and greys that make up the feather colours.
Rook Collage Collage on paper 90x70cms (paper size) Framed This Rook collage is made from a variety of coloured paper pieces - blues, greys, blacks, built up over several layers to create the feather patterns and the bone structure underneath. I start with a drawing and this one comes from a week I spent on the island of Colonsay in the Inner Hebrides of Scotland.
Sanderling Pastel on paper Sanderlings are found at the very water's edge on the sea shore. They hang about in groups and every time I move in close to them they rise up and then land again a few tantalising feet away. When they are standing at rest, they often look as if they are crossing their legs. They are very funny. Pastel 86x66cms framed UK shipping is £70.00. Please contact me for international rates.
