Husb and I spent a few days in The Lake District last week, in the lovely little town of Ulverston. Husb and our younger relatives went on the climbing wall, doing bouldering. Of course, I had to have a scribble. It’s great to draw people in strange poses that I normally wouldn’t see. I had to be quick too,Continue reading “Scribbling Bouldering 4.”

Scribbling Bouldering 3.
Here’s another scribble from The Wall in Ulverston, where Husb and I visited last week. He bouldered, I scribbled. Here he is with some snazzy handholds and footholds, which look a bit like pebbles and gems strewn across a beach after I’ve tweaked them in Adobe Photoshop . Sensibly, there were some very deep fallContinue reading “Scribbling Bouldering 3.”
Scribbling Bouldering 2.
I went to The Wall in Ulverston when I was there last week, not to climb, but to sketch. Climbers twisted themselves into some great shapes, but I had to draw quickly. The bouldering wall is covered in odd, bright shapes, handholds and footholds. I put photos of them through Adobe Photoshop to go withContinue reading “Scribbling Bouldering 2.”
Scribbling Bouldering 1.
Husb and I spent a few days in The Lake District last week, in the lovely little town of Ulverston. Husb joined some of our young relatives on the climbing wall. The technique is called bouldering and I’d never heard of it before. Of course, I had to have a scribble. It was a greatContinue reading “Scribbling Bouldering 1.”
#Caturday Archives 7
It’s Saturday/Caturday once again and here’s my earliest drawing of Sparta Puss, when she was a little kitten (she’s 13 now). A friend noticed the sinister arrangement of fur on her forehead, it looks a bit like a skull head. She nicknamed her “The Third Kitten of the Apocalypse”. Luckily the strange markings changed asContinue reading “#Caturday Archives 7”
Thundery Crags
This is the last of the outdoor sketches I did in my recent stay in The Lake District. We stopped a while up in the mountains while younger relatives swam in the river – it was WAY too cold for me – so I sat and sketched with Derwent Inktense blocks into a Khadi landscapeContinue reading “Thundery Crags”
More Mountains.
With Husb in The Lake District and there are so many mountains I don’t have to search for them. I’m drawing so many that I could almost do it with my eyes shut!
Wet Scribbling.
Husb and I spent a few days in The Lake District, visiting people and enjoying the beauty and quiet of the place. I took my Derwent Inktense blocks, a landscape Khadi sketchbook, a Daler Rowney reservoir brush and sat a while sketching. First off, I did a quick sketch with the Inktense blocks, using themContinue reading “Wet Scribbling.”
Another Hairy Head.
Husb and I went to The Lyric Theatre in Carmarthen last week to see “Operation Julie – A Rock Musical” – it was brilliant. It’s based on a true story that happened in Wales in the 1970s and the audience was mostly – erm – of a certain age – like me and Husb 😀Continue reading “Another Hairy Head.”
The Biggest Bust
Husb and I went along to Carmarthen last Friday evening, to the Lyric Theatre to see Theatr naNog’s new show, Operation Julie – a Rock Musical. It was FANTASTIC! Of course, I had to have a scribble of the audience – with a ballpoint pen into my leatherbound A5 sketchbook. Billed as “Breaking Bad meetsContinue reading “The Biggest Bust”
