The Arctic Tern has the longest animal migration on the planet, with an annual round trip of 22,000 miles you cannot be anything other than in awe of this majestic bird. I am slightly obsessed with Terns, not only because of their incredible flying power but in silhouette they are so beautiful and they find their way so elegantly into my artwork.
This piece has been created with themes around climate change in mind, the fragility of our blue planet and the forces of the moon that move our seas and tides.
It has been created by incorporating handmade elements such as watercoloured papers, hand-drawn lines and painted textures — all combined digitally to produce this greeting card design.
Size: 145x145mm
Printed in the UK, comes with recycled envelope
Your card will come completely naked ;-) so no cello bag! And sent in plastic free packaging

So if you didn’t know, a collective noun for a group of Swallows is a ‘kettle’ - I’m not quite sure how they came to be known as this. I’ve heard Swallows twittering and I’m not sure they sound like a whistling kettle. What do you think?
Bringing together digitally, handmade elements, an old map of the Atlantic ocean and precisely cut silhouettes of swallows & circles.
This greeting card design would be good for different occasions and with its cool colours maybe it would be suitable for those more sombre occasions too. And I’m all for sending a card out of the blue, no occasion required.
Available in three different colourways, please see the other listings.
Colourway: Blue

JOURNAL
Now and then I write a bit about my experiences out and about in nature, musings on the world, conservation stories and interviews with some interesting people.
On an extremely cold January afternoon as we watched Jackdaws and Rooks head south to their nightly roost, this Kestrel quietly observed us from its perch.
January - it must be the month which holds the record for the most conflicting feelings about it. I get the impression most people dislike this long, dark & cold month. And… I get it, it’s certainly a comedown from the frantic activities that come with December and the festive season.
I am not a morning person, especially on my hols but something woke me early before anyone else and I escaped through the front door binoculars in hand.
I watched the jackdaws paired up facing their feathers away from the strong westerly wind, monochrome silhouettes against the greying sky.
I’d like to imagine that it feels like you really are in the wilderness and you might just step over a ridge and come eye to eye with a wolf…
I am a gardener, I grow, I notice every little change in my garden, I smile a different kind of smile when I see the first shoots emerging in January and February. Yet today…. a beautiful sunny day two thirds of the way through the month of March I was surprised to see rows of Daffodils with their yellow heads still firmly enclosed in their green coats.
I have spent the last few days feeling a sort of paralysis in response to world events. With a tight knot in my stomach I’ve struggled to do any activity without a ‘what’s the point’ voice in my head. I’m guessing a lot of you are feeling similar.
Hello, if you’re reading this then I am really really happy to have you here. I intend to write in a fairly loose uninhibited way about the things that interest me, drive me creatively and also just musings on life, adventures, lovely things I’ve seen and I’d also like to share some of my work with you.
“Beautiful designs, unique and fantastic quality. Friendly fast service too!”
