Here’s a couple of ‘blind contour’ sketches I did recently on a field trip to Craig-y-Nos with colleagues from the FIRE Lab. I did the sketches without looking at the paper and without taking my conté crayon off the paper. Forces me to focus on what’s absolutely essential and gives the linework a lot of life and dynamism.

I am currently artist in residence with The Fire Laboratory at Swansea University and have been going on field trips with scientific colleagues along the course of The River Tawe.
