Sketchbook Archives: 56

Here are some old sketchbook scribbles, from March 2015 and it seems that I was out on the beach a lot, again. It must have been quite dry. I don’t mind going out and drawing when it’s cold, but I don’t want to be soaked.

A Slow Road To High Mountains

Way back in 2007 I was lucky to travel to Pakistan for a two-week visit with friends from Wales, Denmark and Pakistan. We travelled the country in a large minibus, taking in it’s extraordinary and varied geography. We spent a couple of days travelling to the Hunza region in the Karakoram Mountain range in theContinue reading “A Slow Road To High Mountains”

Just A Quickie Or Two

I didn’t have my mojo with me this evening, or my spectacles, so I found the life drawing session quite difficult. For the last half hour I just made quick sketches of the other people there into my little A6 Indigo covered sketchbook with graphite.

#Caturday Archives: 40

It’s #Caturday Saturday again and back in November 2015 I printed up some plywood that I had carved with some stylised images of my cat, Sparta Puss, climbing a net curtain. She threw some great shapes. I based the woodcut on sketches I had made.

Last Week To See…

It’s the last week to see the Queen Street Gallery Open Art show 2026. There’s so much excellent artwork there, as well as a gallery shop and lovely café right next to the gallery (Number 46). The gallery is just a few minutes walk from Neath railway station, which is on the mainline from LondonContinue reading “Last Week To See…”

Sketchbook Archives: 55

Looking back at sketchbooks from February 2015 and I took a walk on the beach, visited a hospital and a couple of cafés, and hung out at an art gallery opening. I’ll be running a weekend linocut course based on Dewi Bowen and Olwyn Pritchard’s book, “Hunting The Wild Megalith” on February 28th and MarchContinue reading “Sketchbook Archives: 55”
