Swansea Fringe 2023: Lurcher 2

A couple more sketches from Lurcher‘s performance last weekend at Hangar 18 at this year’s Swansea Fringe. I drew this into my Khadi sketchbook, which is really rough paper, not suitable for pen work but great for my Derwent Inktense blocks.

I scribbled the lines of the body and guitar straight onto the page with the point of a black Inktense block, then went over the lines with a reservoir brush so the water turned the lines to ink. Then I daubed water around the figure and rubbed the wet areas with pink and dark olive green Intense blocks used on the flat side, to give a blocky effect.

I went back to my smooth sketchbook for this drawing. I started with a Faber Castell Pitt drawing pen, but it wasn’t working for me, so I switched to a stick of Nitram charcoal and scribbled a very quick one.

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
