Chilling out the other evening, I started scribbling some little imaginary heads into my A6 Indigo-bound sketchbook. I rarely draw from my imagination, but it’s something I want to do more of as it stops me being too precious with what I draw.

Scribbling At Home
Just chilling out yesterday evening and I grabbed my little A6 Indigo-bound sketchbook and did some quick scribbling. Nice. Relaxing. Enjoyed. Sometimes art is very hard for me, most of the time in fact, but now and again it’s a gentle and quiet thing to do.
The Piano Players
Husb and I went to a neighbour’s party a couple of days into the New Year, it was lovely. There was lots of live music and our hostess played the piano with her granddaughter and provided song-sheets for guests to sing along. Great fun. Lots of traditional carols and some rousing classics sung with gustoContinue reading “The Piano Players”
The First Of The New Year
Husb and I popped along to a neighbour’s party a couple of days into the New Year and the Ffynone Mari Lwyd arrived! So I had to have a scribble, didn’t I? She’s a particularly mischievous Mari Lwyd.
Sketchbook Archives: 53
Looking through my old sketchbooks, here are some random people scribbles from January 2015. I love to sit still and quietly sketch people going about their business, unaware that they’re being drawn.
Sit, Sip, Sketch.
Another little scribble capturing someone reading while they’re having a cuppa at the Waterstones Bookshop café in Swansea. It used to be the old Carlton cinema and it’s a great place to sit, sip and sketch.
Another Random Head In The Bookshop Café
It’s a great place to stop, sip and sketch, the Waterstones Bookshop café in Swansea. It used to be the old Carlton cinema and the café is on the first floor, where the circle was when it was a movie theatre. It’s rather grand, dating from 1914 with huge bowed windows, a glass dome andContinue reading “Another Random Head In The Bookshop Café”
A Random Head In The Bookshop Café
I like to sit and sketch in Waterstone’s café, it’s a lovely atmosphere, it’s a bookshop as well. People are often reading while they’re having a cuppa, so it’s much easier to sketch them than people at a gig.
The Last Of The Old Year
I went up to Elysium for New Year’s Eve with Husb and SIL and had a fab time. I did a bit of scribbling, of course, in pencil into my size A6 Indigo-bound sketchbook, the last of 2025.
Playing With Pattern
This is the final sketch I did at the last life drawing session of 2025 at Swansea Print Workshop. Although she has short hair, it is styled and I used my pen to create patterns. It’s given me ideas for how I might develop it.
