#WorldSparrowDay. Eurasian tree sparrow (_Passer montanus_). Watercolour on paper-backed silk, 106 × 116 mm. This piece from 2023 was the first time I finally tried painting on silk. I'll repost an old XTwitter thread on the process later. The bird's proportions bother me slightly now, but hey ho.

THESE LIFELESS THINGS is my Sleeper Banger and I think I've mentioned this before but like, this contains some of my VERY FAVOURITE writing (and ideas, and imagery) and my last royalty statement for it indicated zero (0) sales over the previous six months. I DON'T CAAAAAAARE I STILL LOVE IT

After two pub quizzes, a Christmas Doctor Who episode, two Call the Midwife Christmas episodes, a Wallace & Gromit film and one confusing Gavin & Stacey finale (never watched any of the rest), I feel somewhat replenished and can return to France now.

Kulindadromeus is friend-shaped. Reworking an old drawing to offer up for sale next week.

If anyone has tips on how to make art when everything else is broken, that would be nice

A part of me is grateful for the sudden influx of followers but it feels so meaningless right now. My personal life is breaking apart, my relationship, my entire adult life, is collapsing under me. I haven't been able to finish a drawing in so long I feel like a fraud. I feel so broken-hearted
