I love the light in these Tim

Love the Ringed Plover there - sums up how tricky they can be on rocky shores.

Glad to be here!!
I've been thinking a lot about line v colour since reading this post last night. I love the spontaneity + informality of the sharpie pieces. I enjoy the dark flowing line. I've dabbled in block printing so they feel 'homely' too me.
What I really wanted to say was I reckoned there was a picture I'd seen in this thread that did the line colour thing really brilliantly for me. So I looked back + there it was on the first post - 'Redshank Alarm'. Great lines created by colour - brilliant!!
Love the latest plovers + the way they are almost lost in the pebbles.

So, do you ever make a bad painting... or sketch... or doodle?

Nice! I like this 'hidden bird' series. Instead of just showing off the bird, it captures something of actually going birding - havng to look for the thing!

This new work is astonishing Tim, please pursue it all the way. The Lapwing is gobsmackingly good. I really don't have the words to describe how good the wrens ar though, can only add to the sentiments already expressed. One of the finest bird watercolours I have ever laid eyes on, without a doubt. Exciting times...

Many thanks.
But just to show that as soon as things seem to be plodding forwards, two steps back are in order . . . . ah well - I'll keep on keeping on. (just noticed - there's a shaft or 'real' light on the eiders - unfortunately not clever arty stuff by me . ..)

not sure that's plodding
the technique seems to really very suit head of Lapwing, with its mix of pattern and contour
is your "two steps back" comment aimed at the eider? I was wondering whether the contrast between the two females is so great (1 big upright pale standing 2 small-looking rich-coloured sitting) it confuses the eye a bit: even if it shows them exactly as they was
