Longer drawings are made using a variety of pencil grades and more rapid pieces are created with clutch pencils and erasers. Soft tones are continually blended and overlaid and built up in layers. Observations, notes and sketches are made whilst out walking with photography as another tool to develop ideas, working on the final piece when back in the studio.

Since 2020 I have been working on a series of bird studies, based on the 57 species I observed within a mile radius of home during the Lockdowns of 2020 and 2021. These are available to view over on my Instagram account.
