In days like these I think we could all do with a bit more lavender-induced relaxation. I keep a pot of this beauty next to my bed to help me sleep - meaning it’s an easy subject to forage indoors! . Poor thing probably doesn’t enjoy the location much; I’m always ruffling him to provoke the oils. He’s probably thinking ‘sod off’. It’s very much a take-take relationship on my part 🙈 . #lavenderlove #lavendaressentialoil #botanicalillustration #botanicalart #botanicalbeauty #blackwork #blackworknow #inkillustration #aromatherapie #aromatherapyoil #natureindoors #flowerpowered #finelinerpen #inkdrawingart #natureillustration #scientificillustration #floratherapy #happyflorals #amomentofcalm #blackworkillustrations #flowertattoos #inspiredbyflowers

Still busy sorting all my old scraps into my sketchbook and stumbled (metaphorically speaking-although I am amazingly clumsy) across this old favourite of mine. Memo to self: more of these please. What do you think? More detailed vintage-style botanical illustrations? . #botanicalart #botanicalillustrations #penandinkartist #woodcutstyle #oldmeetsnew #vintagestyleart #oldbutnew #blackandwhiteillustration #scientificbotanicalillustration #oldbotanical #botanicalillustration #plantloversofinstagram #plantloversonly #plantportrait #detailedtattoo #detaileddrawing #homeopathy #floralillustration #floral_lover

#thursdaythrowback of one of my favourite pieces I made for an exhibition last year: a pen and ink Parasol with real dried moss on vintage medical records. I will be somewhat reluctantly putting him and some of his ilk up for sale soon to make room for new work and fresh fungi 🍄 . It’s always sad to let them go but exciting to think ahead of all the new ideas i can bring to life when i have the space back again - both mentally and physically. . #thursdaythrowbacks #fungiamongus #fungusamongus #mushroomart #fungilove #vintagestyleart #penandinkart #penandinkillustration #recycledmaterials #oldmeetsnew #oldsouls #botanicaldrawing #monochromemagic #mushroommagic #mushroomlove #naturedesign #naturedesigns #fungiofinstagram #fungifanatic #fungifreaks

A golden day of daisy-sprayed hedgerows, sunlit rockpools, swooping swallows and morris magic. Kernow, ow kolon (Cornwall, my heart) ♥️ #kernowlife #morrisdancing #cornishnature #cornishwalks #folklore

🏡 Throwback to a sign I made that pretty much sums up my feelings towards second homes and air bnbs. Sadly, the sentiment remains relevant for Cornwall and Wales now more than ever. #inkillustration #inkillustrations #inkillustrator #cornishcommunities #holidayhomes #blackworkillustrations #blackworkartists #linedrawings #linedrawingart #kernow #cymru #cornwallartist #wales❤️

✨Drawing away in these dreamy-hazy days. Wales was magical – although brief – and my creative mojo is back now (is that a thing? 😄) Home in the Cornish Motherland and will be diving into some folklore-inspired stuff very soon. Splann! ◾️◾️ ◾️◾️ #illustrator #illustratorofinstagram #natureartist #natureillustration #natureillustrationart #natureillustrations #naturalhistoryillustration #naturalhistoryart #folkloreart #folklore

Just a casual FYI that if you pick up a branch of adorable fuzzy catkins and put them in a vase of water you WILL end up with what looks like a hairy plague of caterpillars on your floor. And then your goblin-cats will try to eat them. 🐛🐛 Ask me how I know 🙄 #catkins #inkartwork #inkartists #springnature

🍃As much as I could draw of this leaf on my balcony before the light died. Listening to @wellesmusic made for a productive mix of rage for the shadowy bits and joy for the light ✍🏻 #natureillustration #natureillustrationart #penartist #botanicalillustrator

After days of dicking around on Threads, the question is: can I get away with being silly on Instagram too? 😄 ✨Lilli Vanilli✨ #lillies #lillyflower #flowertime #botanicaltattoo #botanicalart #botanicalartist #drawmore #finelinerart #digitalfinish
