Bumpy tree, watercolour on paper, 31cm x 23cm(12"x9"). From this July. I'm training Noodle to be sketching companion but so far she only wants to sit on my lap - a bit hard to paint with her on top of me.

Summer walks, 51 x 36cm, watercolour and ink on paper. It's been an beautiful wet Summer, like the ones I remember from my childhood - although followed by the hottest September in history. It's also my first summer with our dog Noodle. She is the best behaved dog I have ever had a pleasure to spend time with - we're very lucky! This painting is inspired by our walks in August. I tend to think up stories when I walk in silence and as I am an absolute weirdo I sometimes tell them to Noodle. I haven't been around on social media for a bit - I hate the ever-present short video format(TikTok kind of videos) so I wasn't even really checking my accounts apart from sharing my puppy. Almost nobody can ever see my posts so I've decided to just post when I feel like it rather than have any schedule. Call me when the reels are dead, I'll fully come back then!

Bisham, watercolour on paper, 15 x 30cm(5.9"x11.8").

I sat in the mud 😄 First watercolour sketch of the year - It's much harder with a puppy. I'm training her to accept rest stops but we'll see how that goes. Right now she loves to sit on my lap whenever we stop - yes, she's way to big to fit.

Baby Noodle, watercolour and gouache on paper, 31cm x 23cm(12"x9").

Portrait of the main reason for my prolonged Internet sabbatical. It's been nice but now it's time to be back. And paint another portrait - her nose is much longer now.
