    Love to see someone else is also doing bird lino cuts. Your watercolours have a feeling of life and movement about them.

    Hey everyone. I am at the moment, filling up sketchbooks with birds over the summer holidays to get a head start when I return to school. That means I am far too lazy to do "finished" work, so I only have sketches at the moment. The only finish thing I have is this pheasant lino cut made for a...
