View From Hawkshead

A quick drawing of the view across the mountains.

Had a few days away in the Lake District and scribbled away in my brown paper sketchbook with conte crayons in black, sanguine and white. Here’s the view from the top of the cemetery in the lovely town of Hawkshead. It was beautiful weather too. I did the sketch very quickly, focusing on getting the bare bones of the composition.

A Chance To Own One Of My Artworks

I have some small screenprints for sale, inspired by my drawings of the antique taxidermy collection at Swansea Museum. I have given these vintage 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.

To buy my work on the Swansea Print Workshop site please click the image to the left.

20 percent of the cost of each screenprint sold goes to support Swansea Print Workshop, which receives no public funding.

I'm an artist / printmaker / scribbler. I love drawing and all the geeky stuff associated with printmaking, working in a figurative style. I live in Wales with husband and demented cats. And my real name is Rose Davies :D
