Hellooo, it’s been a hot minute since I last posted. Here’s something I’m working on when I’ve got free time. I love the look of oil paintings however I hate how messy it is.. so I’ve tried my best to replicate it on Procreate. 🙂

My Story

Here's my story; the stag cries, Winter snarls as summer dies.

The wind bullies the low sun, In poor light; the seas moan.

Shapeless bracken is turning red, The wildgoose raises its desperate head.

Birds' wings freeze where fields are hoary. The world is ice. That's my story.
I’ve always loved interpreting poems into art. When commissions are low I love to do more personal pieces. Maybe some day I’ll make these into prints.

Sleepy pug 😴

Jumping jack

Something a little spooky whilst work is low 👻 I can a little more than animals sometimes.

Badass Rhodesian Ridgeback 💪🏻

Clumber spaniel-
Developed in the UK the Clumber Spaniel is the largest in the spaniel breed. For those who can handle the drooling and shredding, the Clumber can make an amusing best friend.

Something a bit different for me. This is my first attempt at drawing a horse.

Can anyone guess the next a dog breed..? Work in progress

Rottweiler/ “Rottweiler Metzgerhund” which is German for Rottweil Butchers dog. Their main jobs include herding livestock and pulling carts laden with butchered meat to market, this continued until the mid 19th century when railways replaced them. Now they’re commonly used for Search And Rescue, Guard Dogs and Police dogs.

Those eyes are mesmerising. I believe this cat is a cross between Ragdoll and Siberian, I just loved that face 🐈

A funky greyhound. A bit different to what I normally do.

The Chow Chow
Originally from Northern China. They were wrote about as “large war dogs that resemble black-tongue lions”. Bred to pull dog sleds through swampy terrain this beastly dog is speculated to date back almost 3000 years ago.

Bernese Mountain Dog
The hardy dog that thrives in cold weather were bred in Switzerland to herd cattle, while they look imposing at 50-60kg they not threatening at all, and maintain an aloof personality around strangers.

Irish Wolfhound
Cù Faoil
Irish breed of sighthound is among the largest of all dog breeds. These dogs inspired literature, poetry and mythology because of its substantial size. They were commonly used as guardian dogs and for hunting of wolves.

German shepherd (Alsatian)

Fancy Rat
