I’ve been doing some little mashups with my Käthe Kollwitz stamped prints and some newspaper. They’re stuck onto the windows of Galerie Simpson where I’ve been doing an artist’s residency for the past 3 weeks. On Saturday I’m having an Open Studio from 10.00 – 16.00 with tea and home-made cakes and the art I’veContinue reading “Kollwitz Mashups”

What Am I Up To Now? [7]
Still working on a new piece of art at my residency at Galerie Simpson on Swansea’s High Street. I’m taking my printmaking out of two dimensions into three and it’s certainly been challenging. Today I’ve been sewing paper together on my lovely Edwardian Singer sewing machine and then overstitching my little stamped prints of GermanContinue reading “What Am I Up To Now? [7]”
Always Room For Improvement
And another lovely Baby Boomer – I’m on a roll! I set myself the task of drawing 100 Baby boomer, my generation, by the end of this year and here is number 86. I just love doing this, such interesting conversations and faces full of life and experience. It’s developing my drawing skills – there’sContinue reading “Always Room For Improvement”
Still Learning
This is sitter number 85 out of my target of 100 Baby Boomers sketched by the end of this year. I’ve improved so much in my ability to sketch faces quickly and with reasonable accuracy, some more and some less, while retaining my own style. It’s very different to working with professional models and I’mContinue reading “Still Learning”
Boomtime Again
I’m still working on my series of sketches of Baby Boomers, aiming to complete one hundred by the end of this year. This is my 84th sitter and it’s a relief to have done so many now. I love doing these drawings, they are so much more intimate than drawing from photos. There’s moreContinue reading “Boomtime Again”

What Am I Up To? [3]
Working on something new in a short residency at the fab Galerie Simpson. Out of my comfort zone, working out the logistics of constructing prints and drawings in three dimensions. Ooooff. I’m a very 2D person! I’m also continuing my “en plein air” journey of discovery with prehistorian Dewi Bowen and filmmaker Melvyn Williams as we travelContinue reading “What Am I Up To? [3]”
What Am I Up To Now? [2]
I’m doing a short residency at the lovely Galerie Simpson on Swansea’s High Street and I’m working on something very new and out of my comfort zone…… I’ve been incorporating text into my work on and off for some years – I’m experimenting with some new pens, Uni Pen Fine Line. Looking good. I needContinue reading “What Am I Up To Now? [2]”
