Hare Watercolour Artwork

Hare watercolour illustration

Where I used to live in rural Kent we were lucky enough to see these beautiful creatures from time to time. Once or twice, I came across them hopping up the lane, the black of the ears, bristly coat and long legs alerting me to the fact that this wild creature before me was certainly not a rabbit. I photographed some stages of the picture’s progress along the way. You can see these in this blog post and find out more about how I use watercolour.

You will find hare artwork for sale on my website, UK and international delivery.

Welsh Pony Painting

This watercolour illustration of a Welsh pony was used by Hudson and Middleton on a fine bone china mug design. The caption on the mug was “Also Available in White.” Anyone who owns a grey pony will relate to this!

Limousin Cow

Oxted and Edenbridge Show has provided me with many opportunities to draw cattle. Here are ten important things to know about the breed from That’sFarming. https://www.thatsfarming.com/news/limousin-cattle

I painted this on some beautiful Whatman watercolour paper I managed to get my hands on (it was sadly discontinued). I have long since sold the picture and run out of this paper, but please browse my shop for the print.

Sleeping Pig

Sleeping pig watercolour painting

I saw this lazy pig at a local birds of prey centre. I have sold many prints of this image, I think it’s because he looks so care free and contented and we would all like to be like that. https://katherinetyrer.co.uk/product/pig-fine-art-print-2/

Gloucester Old Spot Pig, Watercolour Illustration

Gloucester Old Spot pig watercolour painting

Pigs make a lovely subject for a painting. I sold the original painting long ago but have prints of this particular pig and others in my shop.

The Gloucester Old Spot is a rare breed, a pedigree pig. As its name suggests, it was popular in parts of Gloucester, where it was known as the “Orchard Pig.” http://www.britishpigs.org.uk/breed_gs.htm
