23.01.2022 Finch 5, Diamond Firetail Very happy with how it turns out! I have used all my arches cold pressed paper so this one is on the arches rough. Love both of them, I might even favor the rough a tiny bit more This one will be added to the small birds collection, available online and at markets in a week or so ... . . . . . . . #choosearts #finch #diamondfiretail #finches #finchesofinstagram #birdart #birdartwork #birdlovers #birdlover #wildlifeart #australianwildlife #australianbirds #australianbird #australiananimals #australiananimal #animalart #animalpainting #watercolourpainting #watercolorpainting #aquarelle #watercolorartist #watercolorart #watercolorbird #watercolorbirds See more

20.01.2022 Crested pigeon 1 Defy Crested pigeon is a very common bird where I live. They are usually quite shy. I find this pose enormously adorable.... . . . . . #choosearts #crestedpigeon #pigeon #pigeonpose #dove #australianbirds #australianbird #australiananimals #australiananimal #animalart #animalpainting #artforsalebyartist #artforsaleonline #watercolourpainting #watercolorpainting #aquarelle See more
20.01.2022 Finch 6, Gouldian Finch I have been wanting to paint Gouldian for quite a while. Recently I realised that I actually paint slowly, even though I draw fast. For every bird I paint, I do 5-10 studies before painting and the first painting(s) usually ends up as a study too(this one is not the first Gouldian )... For every minute I paint, it takes maybe 10 minutes or more to observe and decide what to do. So, I’m actually a slow painter . . . . . . . #choosearts #finch #gouldian #gouldianfinch #gouldianfinches #finches #finchesofinstagram #birdart #birdartwork #birdlovers #birdlover #wildlifeart #australianwildlife #australianbirds #australianbird #australiananimals #australiananimal #animalart #animalpainting #watercolourpainting #watercolorpainting #aquarelle #watercolorartist #watercolorart #watercolorbird #watercolorbirds See more
18.01.2022 Another exciting design(at least to me) now complete! Well, Ive been working on the wine design for a while. Not happy with the first few ideas, so I didnt use any of those. A couple of days ago I finally had 2 ideas that Im happy with. Spoke with my wine lover friend @cysipswinedotcom and this one was selected thanks C!... 4 blocks, 2 colours are used to create this piece. I dont think I want to carve another calligraphy font text again Two sizes available. I sew every single one of them after hand printing. The fabric is washed after printing and when inks fully cured(It takes a few steps including heat set)to make sure that it doesnt fade. For printing on fabric I use fabric ink. I also make a removable nose wire for each mask. Gift wrapped in specially printed tissue paper.

17.01.2022 Finch 7, Gouldian Finches duo A carefully designed composition I hope it works and that you’ll like it! I don’t stretch my paper to prevent it from getting buckled from painting. Instead I flatten it afterwards, and it’s very easy to do. Google has all the information.... It does take a couple of days though, so I won’t bring this one to tomorrow’s market at st kilda esplanade, but expect to see the zebra finch, diamond Firetail, and the previous Gouldian if you visit me tomorrow! . . . . . . . #choosearts #finch #gouldian #gouldianfinch #gouldianfinches #finches #finchesofinstagram #birdart #birdartwork #birdlovers #birdlover #wildlifeart #australianwildlife #australianbirds #australianbird #australiananimals #australiananimal #animalart #animalpainting #watercolourpainting #watercolorpainting #aquarelle #watercolorartist #watercolorart #watercolorbird #watercolorbirds See more

12.01.2022 Whale Watching, handmade linocut print, limited edition of 10. I changed my mind, its going to be edition of 10, not 20 If I have to name one thing positive out of the lockdown(s), its how it enabled me to reconnect with my love for printmaking. ...

08.01.2022 Whale watching, limited edition print of 20. The print will be available on my website soon, this post is just to share with you how I make the prints The best equipment for this kind of printmaking is an etching press, however I dont own an expensive press, also traditionally in the east the prints are made by hand, so I use the Japanese printmaking paper which is design for hand printing. Different to block printing on fabric which I show in a previous timelapse, when pri...nt on paper I lay the Lino block face up, and paper on top of it. Youll see that I use a registration sheet, its to ensure that I always know exactly how to position the block and the paper. The most common tool for burnishing is a bamboo baren, otherwise a wooden spoon is surprisingly excellent, and thats what I use here. Printmaking is like science in art to me. A lot of it is about precision and the right amount(of ink, for example). I hope you enjoyed this short video and thanks for reading

05.01.2022 Finch 8, European goldfinches I didn’t think I was going to paint the European goldfinch.

04.01.2022 Magpie 6 I did this little one last night as a quick exercise because its a very small piece of paper (13 x 15cm). There is not much detail in it like the other ones.
