Experimenting with adding some watercolour to some of the sparrow drypoint prints...

Little owl (Athene noctua) drypoint print, part of my 'Bird list' project of birds I've seen or heard from my house/garden. I occasionally see these guys flying about, but more often hear them - they can be surprisingly noisy!
Your work is fantastic, such diversity. Did you have formal training? School, college uni? Or are you self taught?
I scribble with pencils and feel like I'm in Kindergarten when I look at your work.

Wow, thanks for the lovely comment Andy! I'm pretty much self-taught, though I do go along to the occasional workshop, always good for picking up useful tips! I've been to workshops in printmaking and drawing and have enjoyed all. Other than that I muddle along on my own...
Enjoy your scribbling, that's the most important thing!

It's been a while since I was in here, but I thought I'd share my latest linocut - a three-colour reduction. If anyone has a better title than 'Lapwings', please let me know!

Thank kankushok 
Here's a drypoint, based on a drawing I did a while back.
