So much to see - an absolute feast!! I'll say no more than the obvious - if anyone was ever in any doubt that we are graced here with an artist of the most incredible vision, then these last posts should dispel any lingering doubt. You could be the man to finally achieve the label 'Artist' without hesitation nor reference to the 'Widllife' bit . . .
The greyhead in inks and the lappy collage are paintings from the very highest echelon.
Well done - you deserve a sleep.

What more can you say? These are rich, rich, rich! And those woodpeckers are getting the paintings that they deserve.

I've seen some quite incredible work posted on this thread Nick, but this latest avalanche is of the very highest quality...
Difficult to express just how good this work is, the first piece would of been enough on it's own, what a painting that is. It goes on though, several paintings more that collectively explore, shape and express what it is for an artist to take in an experience, mould it into a visual imagery that completely conveys the colour, shape and form of the experience.
Some of the finest work I've ever seen....

Been away for a while and I come back to THIS!!!
Nick, something has become un-blocked in you. I am astounded by the power of light, colour and honest capture in these latest. And the easy abstracts you achieve.
I believe you are finding an epiphany. What went before was remarkable.
I have no words to describe what is happening now...
I am aghast! SOOO beautiful!
Sleep well!

Cant be said more clearly than that, shows the astounding range of your vision, my fav is the tree with the blue background, where only after really looking you see the bird, just the perfect experience.

stupendous effort- odious to pick favourites but currently the 2 GH-W with the blue inked sky background gets it from where I sit
that Middle-spotted is in danger of getting overlooked in the excitement when alone it is really something- I once got up early and saw one like that with sun shinging through its raised crest and am transported back very happily

C'est pas ma faute, je suis anglais.
a damp grey day, spent hunting out the less common woodpeckers with the mp3 - the only one that I managed to get was the lesser pecker - no middle spots, grey-headed or black today. Plenty of frogs, remember I have a phobia of these creatures, so it was quite stressful to sketch them, then my hope of looking for jack snipe on the deck was foiled by this hen harrier that put up three snipe (and not a lot else!) Dreading finding out what has been seen at Pagney today - that'll teach me to go to places to give atlas codes for things!
Plus some things that looked like frogs - Zippy is doing her best impression.

What a feast of colour, style and drama!
The cranes and the cormorant/med gull composition are superb and are my faves from this latest bunch. Alas, as wondrous as the others look I would no doubt appreciate them tons more if painted myself. My tastes are not the norm, though: I like corn beef as much as fillet steak, and it might be difficult to educate one with such preferences!
