Practising building up transparent layers and keeping things light - there's also a bit of metallic watercolour in the sky of this one which doesn't show up that well on the video, but gives it a lovely magical shimmer โœจ๏ธ . . . #abstractpainting #watercolourartwork #paintwithme Red Kite Bird of prey Nature painting Watercolour illustration Wildlife art Landscape painting Magical landscape Folklore

Spending time in my sketchbooks has been a priorit Spending time in my sketchbooks has been a priority of mine for the last few weeks and is definitely something I'm carrying on into the new year - I always find that my best art is made when I'm not creating it for a particular outcome or reason, just purely because it's something I want to do! These are a few wintery scenes I'm working on at the moment, I'll be adding in some more details and an animal or two later on ๐ŸฆŒ๐ŸฆŠ . . . #winterpainting #watercolourart #abstractillustration

Happy solstice! The shortest day and longest night Happy solstice! The shortest day and longest night of the year ๐ŸŒ™โœจ๏ธ I've been trying to embrace these darker nights a bit more this year, and go into hibernation mode rather than ploughing through it - and it's definitely been more enjoyable! I haven't been doing so much painting over the last week, we've had a little break away in London and I've been getting all my Christmas prep done, but I'm looking forward a slow and cosy week between Christmas and New year Hope you all manage to find some moments of peace between now and the big day! โœจ๏ธ . . . #reindeer #winterillustration #watercoloursketchbook

There were a few votes for Arctic fox so here he is! Some of the other suggestions were a hare, owl or reindeer - It's been a long time since I painted a reindeer (last winter) and I'm quite fancying having a go at that one too ๐Ÿ’™ This snowy scene is in acrylic gouache which I haven't used in forever, really enjoyed having an experiment with different media . . . #gouacheartwork #winterillustration #tinyart #arcticfox
