Another in my series of Lilliputians is the Fair Midshipman Onunese Anphilatus ( Lilliput 1735)
I based the names on the common names of butterflies and the Latin names derive from my warped pun-driven mind... ( I did have fun deciding on the most appropriate spelling...)
The label on the back is as follows:

Small Game Hunter 1
When we were staying with our friends Alison and Mike in Cheltenham I noticed that they had a small wooden plaque amongst the other pictures on one of their walls. Upon this plaque was a small clay figure of a man in Georgian clothing.
I ,being me, remarked that it lacked a label indicating the species , location and date of collection.
This led directly to a visit to the local branch of Hobbycraft and the purchase of several wooden plaques and a quantity of Fimo.
This is the first of my Lilliputians: The Dun Apprentice Uthotadea Mostliuslus ( Lilliput 1731)
There is a further label on the back of the plaque.
I shall post further specimens anon.
Until next time

Golden Cap
I also work in watercolour and have done quite a few
landscapes.
These often appear in my other paintings as part of my
Landscape of Dreams.
This is a big watercolour, using a whole A1 sheet.
It is of Golden Cap in Dorset, which is near to Charmouth,
where I used to go on holiday when I was a lad.(Apologies for the reflection, but this one has been framed and hanging in my Dad's house for many years).
Until next time
Adieu
