I'm just ordering a large batch of framed prints in preparation for a summer of events. It has become very challenging trying to decide what to take to an event. There is such a huge back catalogue. I tend to mix in some new images with some of my longstanding best sellers. Displaying framed prints alongside original paintings offers something for different customer budgets and decoration situations.

"Velvet Morning" Red Deer
I like compositions with the animals leading you into the scene. I was very pleased with how this one came together. It depicts a view looking inland amongst the hills above Arisaig.

It's that time of year when a walk in the woods often results with the discovery of a great spotted woodpecker nest. They really do have very noisy chicks that guide you to the location with their chipping calls. Here are a couple of paintings from my archive.

Here are a couple of badger paintings from my archive. I've just had an early meal so I can head off badger watching. I'm visiting a remote undisturbed location where the badgers emerge well before dusk. They are coming out even earlier at the moment as the unseasonably dry weather is making it hard for them to find food.

I'm just designing a partner painting to work alongside this painting from a couple of years back. I'm thinking of a different species of owl and a perched bird, but with a background that will compliment the existing painting.

I've just confirmed the sale of these two wildfowl paintings. I used to paint plenty of ducks when I lived near the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust, Slimbridge. It's nice to revisit a subject I've always enjoyed. These artworks are going on a bit of a trip. They'll be shipped to Jaipur, India

Finished.
These two duck paintings were designed to work as a pair.
"Pintail Reflections" and "Looking for a Landing", Wigeon
Both are oil on canvas 20 x 24 inches. I'll frame them tomorrow and add them to the following page in due course.
