Watch as the Easter Bilby appears on the screen!
Here is John Dyer’s iPad drawing of an Australian Easter Bilby that recently went out as a live webinar for schools.

Here you can see how he builds up the different layers until the Bilby appears in its habitat.

‘When it hits you that this is what ‘work’ looks like!

Walking, filming, photographing, sketching and enjoying some quality time together is what we did today, all of which is actually part of our work as Cornish artists.

The day inspired this new original al painting by John Dyer: https://t.co/QMotmfxBkR

Whenever we go out on a walk we are always looking for new things to draw and paint. Even if we have already been to the same place many times, it is always changing and gives us different things to watch and look at.

The colours are different, the plants are different, the sea and the sky are different every time. So even if you only have the same place to visit, take note of how it changes every time you go. Drawing and painting are one of the best ways to capture this.

We love our work and are lucky to live in such a special place, but it is easy to forget how lovely it is to be outside. With the help of @iwalkcornwall we always find somewhere fantastic to go!

And where better to finish a walk than @hellsmouthcafe for a scrummy oat milk hot chocolate!

The @nbcsnl Saturday Night Live sketch about Tourette’s Syndrome (TS) is absolutely vile. It is incomprehensible that so many people had an opportunity to say no to this horrible inhumane concept, but producers, actors, writers, directors and broadcasters all seem to think it’s fine to launch a devastating attack on 1% of the global population who suffer with TS disability. It’s a revoltingly low and awful point for the media. Everyone involved should be held accountable and publicly apologies. @Google @YouTube need to take it down now. They should all meet people like my amazing daughter https://t.co/2RnmYgoYlB and then take a long hard look at their sad and pathetic behaviour which sets back all the hard work being done to make people with TS feel less persecuted. @tourettesaction @NJCTS @BBCWorld @GMB @jk_rowling @edballs @BBCNewsround

A sustainable life in this village in India.

A joyful afternoon spent with a remarkable group of young people in a Tribal Gond Village on the edge of the Pench Tiger reserve.
