When I'm not working on artwork for people I love to get my pens out and just play around in inks. The
Raven was quite a detailed illustration and was a challenge given that i had to create the birds shape/contours using only the light reflecting off the all black plumage. The
Arctic Warbler was just me messing about and a half hearted attempt just to regain my pen techniques after not using them for a while (I just love ink work)

Hi Jack, found your blog through the horror of facebook. Many thanks for helping us have a fantastic week on Fair Isle. I thought I'd let you know I have passed the link to your blog onto Holly so that you can inspire the next generation, she has been drawing like mad ever since she has come back home, all of it of seabirds. Thanks again and please pass them onto the rest of the team.
