Artists from all over Wales are exhibiting. Please come and check it out. Neath has a really good indoor market too.

Live At The Boxing Club: 1
This evening I went and had a scribble at the Gwent Boxing Club in Townhill in Swansea. The lads are lovely and gave me a warm welcome…and a bit of joshing 😀 They’re really, really fast so there was no time to do any detailed drawing, it was speed sketches all the way.
Short Pants, Long Pants.
Husb and I went to a gig at Elysium on Samhain a few days ago, a mixture of performers, folk and metal, with a pagan theme. When I go to gigs, I often draw legs in the audience and I did at this one. Then it occurred to me that everyone was wearing long trousers.Continue reading “Short Pants, Long Pants.”
The Samhain Mask.
Husb and I went to a fab gig at Elysium last Friday. It was Samhain and we listened to a great line up of pagan-ish music. This guitarist with the most excellent band Adfeilion was wearing a terrific, and terrifying, animal skull mask. Of course I had to have a scribble. Adfeilion is a youngContinue reading “The Samhain Mask.”
Warming Up At The Gig.
Husb and I were at a gig at Elysium last night, an evening of pagan folk, rock and metal. Lovely. I had a scribble of course. I usually start by doing some quick sketches of the audience to warm up.
Sketchbook Archives: 15
August 2012 was a very good year for my sketches en plein air, it must have been good weather because I was out and about a lot. The first four drawings were at the Balloon Festival at Ashton Court in Bristol and the last one was on Swansea beach with Mumbles in the background.
Trying Too Hard…
Sometimes I just try too hard and I end up with a drawing that is over-worked and without much life. This was a very striking woman in the audience at one of the music events at the recent Swansea Fringe, but because she was quite still, I worked too slowly and lost the spontaneity ofContinue reading “Trying Too Hard…”
The Quick Scribbles: 1
When I go into a venue to draw at a gig, I usually start off by scribbling a few quick sketches. It wakes up my muscle memory and I can check if I feel comfortable drawing in that position – is there enough space or am I being jostled? Is there somewhere to rest myContinue reading “The Quick Scribbles: 1”
The Happy Imbiber.
Here’s a very happy chap at one of the Swansea Fringe gigs at Hangar 18, He was dancing very energetically but never spilled his pint! Kudos.
#Caturday (a bit late again).
It was #Caturday Saturday yesterday not today, Sunday. But what’s 24 hours between friends? I cut this silhouette of Bill (aka William Chat-Noir aka Phoebe) our little rescue cat, earlier this year. I found it while I was sorting through my plans chest today (desperately trying to declutter) and I realised I hadn’t even begunContinue reading “#Caturday (a bit late again).”
