I’m not a fan of summer, it’s hot and there are flies and that’s enough for me to wish for eternal winters, but for those who long for the summer, here’s a reminder to not wish the year away just yet …
Flies are actually quite beautiful up close and I’ve always wanted to paint them. I chose hot pressed watercolour paper this time, I thought the shiny bodies lent itself to a less textural paper, with some crêpe paper for the wings.
