Hens Tongue is the artwork of Ross Fleming, based in Glasgow, Scotland.

My work mostly centres around the use of ink, wash and watercolour using various tools and techniques. Folklore and the surrounding natural environment form some of the main influences in my drawing alongside calligraphy and geometric design.
