Another vista from the old church, a spooky corridor beyond a heavy door. It was a dark and rainy day when I took the photos, no artificial light and precious little natural light which added to the atmospherics of the place. I decided not to use a flash because I wanted the deep shadows and high contrast, the effect of chiaroscuro. I used the simplest materials – a small white conte crayon into a Daler Rowney spiral bound A4 Ebony sketchbook. Nothing fancy.

Inspired by drawings of the taxidermy collection at Swansea Museum. I have given these antique artefacts a modern twist by combining them with images of rubbish – old fruit nets, bubble wrap and plastic – highlighting the problem of human pollution and how it affects wildlife.

very easy on the eyes/ quite a curiosity/ thanx
These are a wonderful group of drawings, so much suggested with just a touch of conte on paper.
Thank you Kate, I’m trying to get away from my comfort zone of tight pen drawings 🙂
It’s fantastic Rosie 😉
Thank you, Russell 😊
