A fellow blogger calls me the ‘Martini artist’ because I draw anytime, anyplace, anywhere. That dates the both of us as it’s the slogan from Martini adverts from way back when dinosaurs roamed the planet :). I never pass up the chance to have a quick scribble. This was in a cafe in Mumbles aContinue reading “Ice Cream And Martini”

Captain Cat And The Rubber Slug
I did about a dozen drawings on the street during the ‘Disruptions II’ event in Swansea on Saturday afternoon – this is the last one I’m going to blog but the set is going up on the Elysium Artspace website some time soon. Here’s Wanda Zyborska performing to unsuspecting citizens as a large rubber slug-likeContinue reading “Captain Cat And The Rubber Slug”

Freaky Slug People
Yesterday I was a recorder in the ‘Disruption’ happening which was happening in Swansea City Centre. I was one of the artists recording the performances through the medium of drawing. There were some really freaky things going on, which certainly disrupted the city centre. Two blood-stained body bags were carried up the street toContinue reading “Freaky Slug People”

Weirdness Across The City
The city centre embraced post apocalyptic weirdness this afternoon with the Disruption II art event drawing crowds of disbelieving onlookers out and about in the uncharacteristic sunshine. Some artists were performers, some recorders. I was recording through drawing, wandering along the street in a rubber army gas mask and tarpaulin [in the blazing sunshine] clutchingContinue reading “Weirdness Across The City”
New sketchbook, new sketching
My pal gave me a brand new sketchbook for a present the other day. It’s very tiny and has very rough hand-made paper which isn’t suitable for the usual fineline pens I use so I had to thnk how to use it. i decided to spend 10 minutes each day sitting in the window onContinue reading “New sketchbook, new sketching”
New Male Nude [parental guidance]
This continues my small-scale life drawings using Renaissance techniques and materials. Our model sat up high on top of a plans chest and I scrunched my chair quite close, underneath. This gave me a fairly extreme perspective and foreshortening. I deliberately look out for awkward poses because – I’m a masochist? 🙂 I used someContinue reading “New Male Nude [parental guidance]”
Riot Police the untold story

Tidy Scran
Was a bit busy this morning doing some last minute stuff for this evening’s exhibition [below] so Husb and I went to the Continental Caff for our lunch. It’s what we round here call ‘tidy scran’ which means good, filling, unpretentious home cooking. It’s always full of people having a cooked dinner – traditional BritishContinue reading “Tidy Scran”
