Back in the Great Lockdown of 2020, I painted along with Ed Sumner’s Cheese and Wine Painting Club over on Facebook every week, copying works by great artists. I’ve always loved this portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer and gave it a go. It took AGES Here’s a very short film of just a tiny bit ofContinue reading “Painting Klimt – A Short Video”

Sticking Stuff
I’m working on a couple of collages as part of a recent commission – all a bit secret at the moment, but here are some sections. The brief is to work with a group of people to develop text-based collages using recycled printed paper. It’s great, they’re all so different. All will be revealed inContinue reading “Sticking Stuff”
#StandingStoneSunday 4
It’s #StandingStoneSunday on social media again. Here’s Maen Llia, a large Bronze Age standing stone near Ystradfellte in the Brecon Beacons National Park. I painted / drew this en plein air while I was journeying across South Wales with pre-historian Dewi Bowen and filmmaker Melvyn Williams, a few years back. It was FREEZING! Dewi’s working on his newContinue reading “#StandingStoneSunday 4”
#Caturday Archives 4
It’s Saturday / #Caturday and here’s another from my kitty archives. This is Little Ming, our floofy tortoiseshell rescue cat, now sadly no longer with us. But she was 18 when she died which was really good considering the awful life she started out with, poor little mite. Here she is lying on top ofContinue reading “#Caturday Archives 4”
Digital Tryout.
Husb has been searching around for a free digital drawing programme for me, to replace the “Markers” I used on my old Samsung Galaxy 8 tablet. He found “Concepts” so I’m giving it a tryout. I did this very quick scribble in a darkened room while Husb watched the TV. It’s got potential, not badContinue reading “Digital Tryout.”
Scribbling In The Elysium Gallery Bar.
Here’s the last of the sketches I did in Elysium Bar the other evening. Gigs are good for scribbling because people are generally focused on the performers and keep reasonably still. Tom Emlyn and Sarah Passmore were playing – check them out, they’re fab. Raising Funds. My family is raising money for Phil, a youngerContinue reading “Scribbling In The Elysium Gallery Bar.”
Talking Heads
Here’s another of my sketchbook drawings from the Elysium Bar the other evening, two friends engrossed in talking. Lovely. Raising Funds. My family is raising money for Phil, a younger relative of mine, to have life-changing surgery in Spain. Phil is disabled by Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and the operation he needs isn’t currently available in the UK.Continue reading “Talking Heads”
An Interesting Head.
Another little scribble from Friday night at the Elysium Gallery bar. Husb and I went to see some live music – Tom Emlyn and Sarah Passmore – it was good. I spotted this very interesting head in the audience. So I had to draw them didn’t I? Raising Funds. My family is raising money forContinue reading “An Interesting Head.”
Standing Stone Sunday 3.
It’s #StandingStoneSunday on social media again and here’s a drawing/painting I did en plein air of the Bronze Age Bryn-y-Rhyd standing stone in Carmarthenshire near Llanedi. It was early on in my journeys across South Wales with pre-historian Dewi Bowen and filmmaker Melvyn Williams, about 5 or 6 years ago now. I was only supposedContinue reading “Standing Stone Sunday 3.”
Scribbling In The Bar.
Husb and I went to see some musicians last night, Tom Emlyn and Sarah Passmore, in the Elysium Gallery Bar. Of course, I had to have a scribble. I used a ballpoint pen into an A5 leather-bound sketchbook. Raising Funds. My family is raising money for Phil, a younger relative of mine, to have life-changingContinue reading “Scribbling In The Bar.”
