  I’ve got an announcement to make… I’ve reopened my Etsy shop! I have been planning this for a couple of years, lots of ideas and researching, and some encouragement and optimism from my friends and family , now’s the time and I’m ready for it.

I have a quite few of favourites, which then gave me some ideas for the paintings. 👍😆 Here’s a gallery of my Birdtober paintings.
