A new edition - Roadkill II

A  new edition. Roadkill II (victims of the modern world).

I have been quietly painting forlorn creatures for the past few months. There are three that made it into books, a frog, a squirrel, a pigeon. Each are inkjet prints on Somerset Satin paper, bound in grey board with silver foil blocking. They will soon be living outside of my studio and residing in Paper Gallery. The Center for Fine Print Research in Bristol have given each one a home too, thank you Sarah B.

*I am in love with my new peaceful space overlooking blissful Autumnal trees which continue to turn, shed and delight each day I put brush to paper. 

Oh it's my 300th post today! so thanks for tuning in.
