Here's a fairly large and riotous flower oil painting on board that found a buyer. I think I only posted a photo of this in progress a month or so ago but not the finished painting. I won't attempt to name all the flowers but they're from my garden. #oilpainting #flowers #botanical

One of my larger flower watercolours, done without body colour and featuring my most painted green glass jug (which is very old and leaking slightly from the handle. I'll get it to make a guest appearance in a new painting this year. #watercolour #flowers #botanical

Watercolour from a few decades ago, with a mixture of garden flowers plus some decorative gourds. I don't remember who bought this one but it was quite large, probably on an imperial sheet of watercolour paper.

Perhaps I'll have a look for some flower studies on this gloomy day so starting with a pastel sketch of alstroemeria. #pastel #flowers #botanical #art

This oil on canvas was exhibited at the Autumn Cambridge Drawing Society exhibition last year and found a buyer. It had been a good year for painting outdoors in my garden unlike this year (too hot!). There is a figure seated to the left, hard to see at first. #art #garden #botanical

Oil on canvas. This garden painting has a metal obelisk with morning glory climbing up plus other flowers including sunflowers and pelargoniums.

I have always enjoyed flower painting and here's a couple of older ones from the '80s, sold a long time ago. These images were scanned from film photos taken by me before they were sold. These would all have been picked from my garden. #art #botanical #stilllife #flowers

A photo of this watercolour in situ with the vase of flowers (which was rotated so doesn't show the side viewed in the painting). I'll have a look for a clear photo of just the painting on other hard drives because I can't find one at the moment. Sold to a friend. #watercolour #botanical

Watercolour drawing of mixed flowers in a yellow-tinted vase plus some apples from the garden on a patterned kitchen tablecloth.

Beautifully Twisted. #twistedtree #naturelovers #moodyedits #gardenpath #gnarlybranches #treeappreciation #natureart #botanical #woodlandwalk #darknature #texture #smartphonephotography #photography

A dramatic, vertical shot of a highly contorted tree with dark, serpentine branches twisting in complex patterns. The tree possesses muted reddish-brown foliage, suggesting an autumnal or dormant state. In the background, a light grey gravel path curves gently through a quiet, wooded garden with soft green vegetation, all framed by a dark vignette that draws focus to the intricate texture of the tree.

A couple of mixed flower watercolours from five years ago. I rather like them because they haven't been over-finished: just studies without any thought of exhibiting them. There's a lot of these in sketch pads and folders from over the years. #art #watercolour #botanical

'Shroomies. #mycology #mushrooms #fungi #woodland #naturelovers #forestfloor #autumnal #wildlifephotography #naturedetails #outdoorlife #enchantedforest #botanical #smartphonephotography #photography

A close-up photograph capturing a dense cluster of small, glossy brown mushrooms growing at the base of a textured tree trunk. The mushrooms have smooth, rounded caps and pale, cream-coloured stems, some overlapping in a crowded formation. The tree bark behind them is deeply grooved with shades of dark brown and grey, punctuated by patches of vibrant green moss. The lighting is soft and natural, highlighting the moist sheen on the mushroom caps and the rugged details of the forest floor.
