Dan Ashton-Booth's Blog (Mod-Dan-Art)

I thought I would upload some art by my dad to mark the opening of his new blog.

http://danashton-boothart.blogspot.com/

He is a very different artist to me but does take a lot of inspiration from other organisms around him, which may help explain where I get my passion for illustrating birds and wildlife

He has never formally taught me but played a large part in my artistic development as a child by encouraging me to draw....I just wish he had got me using watercolours and acrylics at a very young age so I could paint as well as he can

Thank you Dad

In keeping with the bird them rather than the bovine theme (his personal favourite)I thought I would upload three of his paintings containing birds in some shape or form that may not be anatomically accurate as such (sorry dad) but lend themselves very well to his style
