Artist-in-Residence with Herefordshire Wildlife Trust
What a joy to spend time at Birches Farm, Bodenham Lake and North Wood (Queenswood) after a few months away helping with family issues. The emergence of spring is transforming the reserves by the day.

Ash
I am reading Ash by Archie Miles, a tribute to one of our iconic native trees. My wife and I saw ghostly swathes of dead ash in West Sussex last year, reinforcing the awful reality of their impending loss across the UK. The book is available from the Wildlife Trust shop at Queenswood.
Below is a recently completed watercolour of a stand of ash, oak and sweet chestnut in North Wood, you can see preparatory outdoor sketches here.
