I’ve been harvesting #Thyme at the #castleclimbingcentre so it can be prepared into their wonderful herbal teas. #herbalife #herbal #tea #garden #castleclimbing #springtime
I collected these delicate springtime blossoms on my way back from Hampstead Heath today. What a beautiful season when all comes back to life. #springtime #hampsteadheath #cherryblossom #spring #park #blossom #the100dayproject
It’s cherry blossom time again! When I start a new drawing it feels like plunging into a lake - I am hesitant and need to let go into the experience without letting doubts get in the way. Once I am immersed in the act of drawing it flows naturally. But that first step always requires determination. #cherryblossom #springtime #spring #flowers #drawing
I drew a magnolia flower this morning. These flowers have thick, rubbery petals which are extremely hardy. I’ve had a busy few weeks and the stress has been building over time. I am glad I could take the time to just sit and draw today. It leaves me feeling calmer and connected to what is important to me.
This summer I will be spending some time on Källskär - a small, mythical island off the Finnish coast as part of an artist residency. I am planning to map the island with observations of local plant and wildlife, geology, history and personal experience. Källskär has already captured my imagination and I can’t wait to start exploring. #källskär #aland #island #traveldrawing #maps #finland #summertime #mapmaking
It really feels like #spring is in the air and the world is coming back to life. I was so excited to receive these colourful fern and forest creatures cards I printed with @moo. I can’t wait to send these out! #MOOcards #moo #ferns #springtime #forest #lovenature #postcards #gemstones #wildlife #wildflowers
The name for rosemary is derived from its Latin name : ros marinus - Dew of the sea. It tends to grow outside of its normal flowering season and I found it blooming on my frost covered roof terrace today. #herb #plantsofinstagram #frost #flower #winter #winterishere
Winter is a tough season to weather. But now that January is almost over I can see small signs of hope. Here is the Snowdrift plant (Clematis Armandii)- a vine that caught my eye with its beautiful white flowers when I was walking home yesterday. #winter #wintertime #flowers #snowdrift #january #wintersun
To counteract the busy period just before Christmas (so much eating and celebrating to do) I’ve been working on this detailed illustration. It’s a reminder of my 2018 motto: No time to rush. Hope you find time to slow down over the next few weeks and enjoy the small moments. #fern #winter #forest #christmas #season #salamander #snails #caterpillar #newbeginnings #wintersolstice
Happy Advent! I made a #wreath as part of a #craft club I am in. @laurengentry.draws bought and picked all the wonderful ingredients: Nobilis, #spruce, #Holly and Lodgepole #pine foliage, Austracia cones, dried orange slices, #eucalyptus and cinnamon sticks. Thanks again for hosting Lauren! #wreath #advent #christmasdecor #crafts
