I created a series of drawings and paper cuts made from hand marbled paper inspired by the birds often seen on Redesmere reservoir, near Macclesfield. They were made as part of a joint show with Patty Callaghan and displayed at Teggs Nose Park gallery. The drawings drew on my own photo reference, taken at Redesmere, supplemented with stock images for further detail.
I made my own marbled paper and have talked about it on my blog.
