"The artist is also a born adventurer. His explorations, unlike those of the tourist, are rewarded by the discovery of beauty spots unmentioned in the guide books, and with tireless curiosity and an exceptional proneness to wonderment, he will come upon objects of remarkable interest overlooked or even shunned by more disciplined observers."

Augustus John, R.A.

Last Prints of the Year

 A couple of Linocuts finished a couple of days before Christmas. Now for a bit of break before starting new  work. Both these are taken from sketches made some time ago. The Golden Oriole is from sketches drawn on 17th May 1998 at Lakenheath Fen in Suffolk. The Chough is a little more recent, drawn on 5th August 2014 on the Ceredigion coast between Llangrannog and Ynys Lochtyn.
