Bat Friday

Good morning.

I’m still slowly working on the art but the way I work can’t be done fast, and that’s ok, it will be ready soon. I’m also pretty much in hibernation mode now and making plans for next year 🍃 In the meantime you can find my shop here haeslwrid.co.uk

Loving this #fox

A few of the new pieces in the shop. I’m trying to be as ethical and sustainable as I can with the products I make available while still offering a choice. haeslwrid.co.uk Full details are on each of the product pages but there are organic, biodegradable, and part-recycled items available 🍂

For those who missed it earlier in the week.

Many lines… #art #illustration #fungi

& you take overwhelm downhill & leave it there inhale cool air & listen to the fields pop in drainage & watch the grey burn surge & hillside lights flicker through rusted trees the sky drains light from the land to glow & darken

A small part of a larger artwork I’m currently working on… #art #illustration #nature

Afternoon sightseeing.

I’ve redrawn this one ready to go into the shop. I’m looking forward to being able to send art prints out internationally again and to having everything available in one place. Everything should be fully back up and running soon! #art #illustration #nature

A marvellous moment of light on a bend in the lane, in Shropshire, in November.

More laser etching nonsense, this time tested on a old mirror.

A few days ago I had two separate opinions given to me about this one which is waiting for some colour. 1) “Ooh it looks like finely woven thread” 2) “It looks all scratchy like it’s from some horror film but in a nice way” I can live with both of those!

Good morning.

A colourful friday morning all and weekend to come🌳🍂

Lichen observations yesterday - so much colour on a grey day

I’m currently working on the website and shop plus making a couple of new versions of some old artworks that I wanted to update. So it’s a touch busy here but I’m hoping to be back up and running in a week or so. Also by then I will be able to ship internationally again including art prints!

Trying to run two accounts on here is too much and so, inevitably, I hardly post at all 🙄 So I’m moving my art stuff back here and will be posting a lot more. You have been warned 😅

Hi All I'm taking part in Walk 60 Miles in November to raise funds for Prostate Cancer Research UK. If your able to donate, no matter how much, I'd be eternally grateful. www.justgiving.com/page/dan-her...

Spotted movement on a distant ridge today. The Cairngorm reindeer herd on the move. Photo taken with the long end of my 18-135 zoom lens. Here's the original and a heavy crop. I could barely see what they were with the naked eye. #Cairngorms #reindeer

Astonishing, I can only imagine the emotional whirlwind when seeing this in person. The Ferryman's End at Victor's Way, located near Roundwood, County Wicklow, Ireland, is a privately owned meditation garden. Found via Sleepy Hollow Country, Julia McCue #beautifulbizarre #sculpture #art

I thought I’d venture back on this account to see what’s going on. I can see a couple of people have left, and some more haven’t posted in months. So, who is still here? 😅

& last of April - Beltane eve - rowan flower opening & the light through new leaves is soft & fresh, the sun fiery & benign - amongst insects a chaffinchthroat pulses in song, you inhale pollen & dust & air is humid, it is another world from the beginning of the month

I just like the shapes.

This is April’s link dump containing a mix of links to interesting blog posts I’ve read from the past month covering arts & culture, myth, folklore, landscape punk, hauntology, anarchism, utopianism, the gothic, neo-fabulism, and the Weird: www.lazaruscorporation.co.uk/blogs/artist...
