Here are some of the fish and sea food I am currently painting which I hope will make a interesting group by the Spring. All these fish come from our village fish shop The Norfolk Larder. I have been going there at opening time and buying their freshest, most glistening of fish. Now I'm waiting for the crabs to come back in - they said the seas were too rough the last few weeks.
My first idea was to make a cook book. I have always wanted to illustrate a cook book. So this autumn I finally got round to making a beginning and thought what better place to start than with fish.
Next perhaps I'll get some unplucked pheasant and partridge at our nearby game butcher, while next summer I can start recording all the vegetables and herbs from our garden. Click here to see first herbs and vegetables (weeds included I am afraid)
Then all I am left to do is to find the recipes. Maybe someone will come along and help me... meanwhile I thought you might enjoy to see the progress of the illustrations.
