While I am happy to follow my muse wherever she goes in terms of subject matter and medium. Looking back at my recent posts there is not a lot of wildlife content among them. So having got these drawings out to mount up and frame, I thought I would post them to go some way to restoring the wildlife balance.

The drawings were originally done for a variety of projects; the Dipper is the oldest having been done around ten years ago as my entry to a British Birds Bird Illustrator of the Year competition, the others are all more recent. The Peregrine and Stoat I did for a proposed book of my own on wildlife in the Yorkshire Dales which never got any further than the planning stage in my head.

These are very beautiful drawings. It's a great pity you could not take forward your book project.
I was in Hexham last week and there was a display in a gallery of M J Forster pictures. They reminded me of your lighthouse picture. You will probably know of the artist but if not, here is a link to his site:

These are superb drawings Stuart. I think they would look good in a book alongside your linocuts, so I hope you do get around to it one day. I think they would also be very good as sets of notelets.
Thanks for your comments. I looked at that site Emma. I liked the south downs painting a lot.
Lovely scrapes Stuart, very like Tunnicliffe....
Such a lovely good picture it is.Thanks for sharing this picture.
