For my November display in the Visitor centre at YWT Potteric Carr nature reserve I plan to show small paintings of some of the interesting birds I have seen on the reserve, most of which I have found absolutely fascinating. The title of the display is.......
Birds of Potteric Carr
.....and I will post photos of the work as I complete them. Here are the first three.....
'Goldfinches on Teasels'
Goldfinches can be seen in various places on the reserve, I saw these close by the Visitor Centre where there are lots of teasels and many other wild flowers.
'Oystercatchers from West Scrape Hide'
West Scrape Hide is at the far end of the reserve on Huxter Well Marsh where many different birds can be seen.
'Tufted Ducks' ...
I observed this small family 'having fun ducking and diving' from St Catherines Hide at the far end of Hawthorn Bank.
That's all for now. My plan is to paint a total of twenty four mix media works ....so fingers crossed....
