The last few months I’ve been working on a selection of linocuts based on birds in their natural habitat. Throughout the year, birds and other wildlife gather on our apple trees; in late summer they are a particular favourite for the blackbirds, who feast on the apples for weeks. Occasionally a charm of goldfinches will arrive in the garden, making the most of the ripe hawkweed among other seedheads. These are just a few of the inspirations for my work.
