It’s #Caturday Saturday and here are some very quick sketches I did a while back of a cat mostly moving, which is rare! I drew speedily to try and capture the cats in action rather than details.

Inspiration, Inspiration, Inspiration…
I learnt a new technique today, from inspirational glass artist, Lisa Burkl. It’s gilding onto glass and then drawing into it. I’d never realised this method would suit drawing so much. I’ve been doing a lot of artwork recently about the inspirational South Wales Miner’s Wives of 1984-1985, so I continued that topic here. IContinue reading “Inspiration, Inspiration, Inspiration…”
Looking Again…
I did these lino prints a few years back. I was playing with some vinyl, a cheap alternative to lino, cutting random shapes and then printing and overprinting in Process Yellow, Magenta and Cyan to see what happened. I didn’t much like them at the time but now I’ve been looking through my archives, IContinue reading “Looking Again…”
Springtime In The Garden…
We’ve had a couple of fine Spring days so I jumped at the chance to get into the garden and do some tidying up. It’s joyous being there. It’s only a little city-centre patch but Husb and I have crammed as much as we can into it. My seasonal favourites are the Hellebores, Primulas andContinue reading “Springtime In The Garden…”
The Name Of The Stone …
I’ve been looking at Google maps recently, exploring the city online and finding interesting nooks and crannies. I knew about this Bronze Age stone in Bon-y-maen, to the North East of the city, and I have even visited and drawn it, but I never really gave much thought to the area around it. The nameContinue reading “The Name Of The Stone …”

8 Years Ago In Bath ….
I’ve been rummaging through some old sketchbooks and found these drawings from the Fringe Arts Bath (FAB) Festival in 2016, a few years before Covid19. It seems like another world. A small group of us stood in crowded streets in the sunshine and sketched, no knowledge of the impending pandemic that totally changed the wayContinue reading “8 Years Ago In Bath ….”
Rhubarb Rhubarb Rhubarb…
I love growing it. Not so keen on eating it, I like the taste but it really doesn’t like me. It is a laxative. I love cooking with rhubarb though and my garden plants are so prolific that I’ve tried out many recipes. Here’s a drawing I did some years ago and here’s a photoContinue reading “Rhubarb Rhubarb Rhubarb…”
Another Quick Sketch ….
A quickly scribbled head with graphite into a Khadi sketchbook.
An Eclectic Mix.
Another head of a performer from the Riverside Folk Club a couple of weeks ago. It’s an eclectic mix of music, folk and country, blues and bluegrass, the occasional small choir and even a bit of comedic verse. I drew this with a 2B graphite block into a Khadi sketchbook.
