Always a pleasure to see Arthur. I'm finally getting to recognize some of your British birds, at least I think I have some of the IDs right...........
 
Hmmm, very nice studies here. I particularly like the green woodpecker in a couple of different poses. No side-on drawings here (nowt wrong with them ofcourse) but birds are infinitely better - and infinitely harder - when portrayed from every angle. Blackcap is very well caught, too. These are much more engaging in the winter months, not like I'd be able to relate to their battle for survival!

Arthur, you've been quietly turning out top quality work here piece after piece.

But those waxwings have to be your finest yet. They are an absolute triumph, a harmonious vision of pastel delight that floats gently off the page to melt sweetly into the viewer's eyes and mind.

Bravo Sir!

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and may the New Year brings you all you wish for.
Off to enjoy Christmas with the grandchildren

Wonderful painting, Arthur! The poor fellow is definitely looking for some extra insulation from the polar weather you folks are having now. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
 
How I miss Pied Wagtails...
I'm impressed by the field sketches - I have to sit with a (very much still) source image for ages to get anything near that.
