Eider drakes on the high tide, North Berwick this morning. Watercolour 360 x 260mm. A wonderful morning with @pascalerentsch, spent on the coast here with a rare blast of warm hazy sun bringing to the fore delicate subtle shadow and wonderful reflections 😁👍

Mackerel Sky, Eric Ravilious, 1938. Painted at Tollesbury in #Essex. Thought lost, it is now known to be in a private collection, was exhibited for the first time in many years in 2021 and is currently on display at @TownerGallery.

In William Dudley's painting of a cottage in Polperro, Cornwall (1909), the house is painted with near-obsessive precision. Brought up in a building household, Dudley knew all about the textures of brick, wood, and rendering, and he applied that knowledge assiduously.

Male Redstart among leafing Sycamore, East Lothian, Watercolour 380 x 560mm. Been a while since I have been able to get out of late, but the first bird I lifted my binoculars to on the coast here today was this wonderful Male Redstart. #migration

The Bedstead, Eric Ravilious, 1938. It is believed the original artwork is still in the possession of the Ravilious family.

And then suddenly ... there was green. After months of grey and mud, I stood in this little wood last week and just soaked up the green, ravenously, greedily. Soon there will be bluebells and ramsons here, bursts of bright colour, but for now I am more than content with green.
