RA Calendar 2025
The legacy from last year's RA Summer Exhibition high lives on.

The calendar is available for preorder from WHSmith and in due course from Waterstones and other good retailers.
“Our Pots & Plates paintings still fill us with joy!
Your colours turn out to be very addictive. I’ve been thinking it over and over again, and decided I would very much like to purchase your Sun Danse tulip painting too!"

While my usual holiday sketches depict botanical illustrations or lovely landscapes, this Portuguese trip ignited a new passion for bird drawings: capturing the playful spirit of these cheeky creatures.
