It was taken in July 2019 - it was pretty blurred but I have a program to fix that..

One of the tame robins that hangs out near the hide at Oxford Island, Lough Neagh - it popped down to say hello when we visited on Thursday.
We didn't see an of the kingfishers this place is famous for - but the robin was nice though..

I took a portrait photo of this rook at Strandhill Beach a few years ago - I thought it deserved to be painted..

It didn't make it into my book 'Strictly No Crows' - but there is plenty of other crow related art in that: www.amazon.co.uk/stores/Mr-Jo...

A flatcoat called Lobster - a commission.
I'm often asked how I create my art.
Quite simple really - I trace or sketch outlines from reference photos - then paint in the colours. I finally adjust and tweak on a PC.
Contact me if you would like to commission some original art.
