Just back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop. I worked at an easel so I was on my feet for nearly 3 hours and I’m shattered, so I’m going off to bed. This is a detail of a 30 minute pose with one of our lovely models.

Inspired by drawings of the taxidermy collection at Swansea Museum. I have given these antique artifacts 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. I also combine some of the images with snippets of text of things my Nana used to say. She used to take me to Swansea Museum a lot when I was little and I could hear her voice in the back of my head as I was sitting and drawing the birds and bugs.

You’re a braver woman than I am.😕
LOL 😀
Oh yes, I always try and nab a stool as my knees conk out part way through a session.
I deliberately tried to stand all evening – not sure I’ll do that again though!
Love the red chalk. Might I ask what you used?
It’s a conte crayon and the colour is sanguine, also black and white conte crayons. https://www.jacksonsart.com/conte-carres-sanguine
Thanks. I might borrow this and use for trees next week. I like the way you build the shape.
Thanks, it’s a great combination especially onto black or brown paper.
