Small drawing series This Bee drawing was made as part of a series in the summer months when bumblebees and honey bees were frequent visitors to my studio. Sometimes there were so many of them buzzing about that the noise was quite distracting. They are all small works, except I couldn't resist doing one large bee drawing too.

Pastel on paper 76x56cm Unframed This long suffering duck was being relentlessly chased around the lake by ardent drakes hoping to mate. She had a look of stoicism about her.
Charcoal on paper 76x56 cm Unframed I keep going back to drawing hares as they are far and away my favourite animal in the UK. They are graceful, mysterious creatures with huge eyes and long, long ears. Hares are not still for long as they are shy, hyper-alert animals and they are hard to spot as they are usually concealed by the crops in the fields they run in.
Cutting out pieces of paper from among other sources the dried palettes I use for my abstract paintings, I am creating a new body of highly coloured work: Hares, Birds, Cows Wolves so far. 56x76cm Unframed
