A hare for the first day of March. It's always a A hare for the first day of March. It's always a special moment to see one of these beautiful animals but I've never managed to get a really good photo of one. So this painting has been achieved with the aid of a shot from the Queen of hare photography @francescrickmorephoto who is incredibly generous. Hare at Fen Farm will be at @fusionartfair from 6th to 8th March and on my website, linked in the bio. #harepainting #marchhare #britishwildlifeart #britishmammals #oilonboardpainting

I was able to take some reference photos at the Fr I was able to take some reference photos at the Fritton Owl Sanctuary. The folk there are lovely, as are the owls they have rescued. These wonderful creatures have often been kept as pets in backyard sheds, and the Sanctuary takes them in when the owners can no longer care for them. Some of them, found injured in the wild, are returned wherever possible. The captive bred ones sold as pets could never survive in the wild. Who knew you could buy a barn owl off the Internet. Barn Owl on Pumpkin is heading off to Harrogate next week for the @fusionartfair #barnowlart #owlrescue #wildlifeartwork #britishwildlifeart #britishbirdsofinstagram
