Hello :) I'm Tara, I'm a freelance artist, and I love dark, surreal, dreamy art. 👩‍🎨 #portfolioday You can get in touch here: ✉️ tara.bush@googlemail.com linktr.ee/tarabushart

Low saturation drawing of a barn owl. The owl is looking to the right, and has a petals from a decaying sunflower around the back of it's head. The background of the image is dark.

Graphite pencil study of the character 'Sister Ruth' from the 1947 film Black Narcissus. A woman in a nun's outfit looks beyond the viewer with a haunted look in her eyes, she has a very slight smile on her face.

A watercolour painting I did of a path winding off into the distance. The light is that of a hazy winter afternoon. Either sides of the path on the horizon are what looks like hills that form a valley, the sky colour on the right is a warm yellow sky as the sun dips behind the hill. The light is hazy, and suggests the time of day is in the afternoon, the sky colour on the left still has hints of blue. This is watercolour, then touched up with acrylic.

Graphite pencil drawing on moleskine paper of a Little Owl. The owl is perched on a surface and is full of attitude, looking intently to the viewers left. Background plain grey.

Crepes #cromerpier

Photo I took of a seaside 'Crepe' van on a promenade, with the sign 'Crepes' above it. The angle is looking slightly up, the sun is burning through the clouds, while there is some bright blue sky to the left. A seagull is gliding by approaching the clouds.
