Birdie artwork I've been working on some artwork this afternoon for some new etching....
I have a commission for a wall plaque incorporating ivy leaves & a little wren. It got me thinking how nice it would be to include some birds on my latest leafy wall pieces. I will start with these designs & if they prove popular perhaps also do a chaffinch/sparrow/blackbird!
I have plenty of ivy in my garden for inspiration so hope to get the etching done soon.
