Acrylic painting of Henry Cavill as The Witcher.

An acrylic painting of a dead tree that was standing in a field near my house. It has since collapsed.

This started life as an underpainting for an entirely different concept but I liked how it ended up so much that I decided to run with it.

Portrait of Sylvanas Windrunner from World of Warcraft

An acrylic painting of a grown up Red and her faithful companion. Easily the biggest painting I've attempted at a metre across. I was aiming for a cool painting with a playful side (Red trying for a badass pose but her big, dumb dog has put its leg down on her fancy cloak).
She did start out naked, because "Art, dahling", but it looked kinda dumb so shiny armour it was. Also, I had such a struggle getting the wolf's legs to look right, and honestly I'm still not 100% happy with them.

Painting of a red squirrel that came a-thieving to steal seeds from the bird feeder in my back garden.

Messy self-portrait. It's a little lopsided but then so's my face so it works out.

Watercolour painting of a parrot flying over the sheep field behind my house.

I live in a small town in north west England called Kirkby Stephen. It's surrounded by sheep fields and empty moors and it tends to be grey and wet.
It's also home to a small colony of semi-feral parrots that live in a sanctuary just outside of town and can often be seen sitting on chimney stacks or flying over the grazing sheep.

Trying to be artsy whilst practising my watercolours. There's probably a lot of symbology there somewhere.
The fade out to the left was intentional, by the way. Can't quite remember what I thought it represented though. Looking towards a brighter future maybe? Sure, we'll go with that.

San from Princess Mononoke, painted in watercolours.
It's supposed to depict San as being one with the forest. Kinda looks like a terrible fungal infection
