It has been such a summery week here in Melbourne and after Marc Martin‘s Guest Blog, I’m dying to get to my local park this weekend! A huge THANK YOU to Marc for such a great week and for sharing his favorite parks with his brilliant bird illustrations. Remember you still have until midnight to leave a comment for Marc’s super giveaway and be sure to check out Marc’s exhibition at Lamington Drive from the 24th of November. -Jenny x
Well it’s not exactly a park, but it is the outdoors… my backyard is the perfect place to sit and do a bit reading, drawing or just hanging with friends! Not only am I lucky enough to have a lemon tree that fruits all year round, but the garden is also frequented by a pair of Spotted Doves.
Whilst they may not be native birds, they are courteous enough to stay away from my washing, and I like them for that.
* UPDATE: Congratulations to lucky commenter #71, Catherine! You have won all 5 of Marc Martin’s illustrations from this week! Thank you to everyone who left such lovely comments and thanks again to Marc for a great week of Guest Blogging!!

Have always loved a good stipple effect
This one is definitely my fave. Love the clothes hanging out!
The doves play with my seedling though!
Your birds make me glad. Would love to see what you do with a forest dwelling chimp…
I’ve enjoyed your sweet ponderings and tidbits of information. There is a serenity in your words; it’s lovely. Thanks Marc
Such special prints! I love the birds I see around Melbourne, and your work really captures their beauty!
I like that this one reminds me of our own backyard (we just need the lovely lemon tree…)
Thank you for your artwork and words this week
