Another Quickie From The Folk Club.

Another little sketch from the Riverside Folk Club last week. I used ink drawing pens and I made a mistake drawing his hand so I filled in his jumper with Nitram charcoal to cover it up. Cheating or creative license? 😀

More From The Folk Club.

Husb sings in a local community choir, Aderyn Du Brynmill Blackbirds, and they gave a short performance of Medieval Christmas Carols at the Riverside Folk Club in Loughor earlier this week. I tagged along and of course, I had to have a scribble. Here are two of the performers that I caught with my drawing pens.

Two Techniques At The Folk Club.

The GVAG’s Friends.

Husb and I went to the Annual General Meeting of the Friends of the Glynn Vivian Art Gallery a few days ago. Of course, I had to have a scribble…..

One, Two, Three ……

The show is in Orchard Street Gallery which is part of HQ Urban Kitchen on Swansea’s Orchard Street and runs through to the end of January. The other venues showing my work are Cinema&Co.ffee and GS Artists.

Man In A Stripey Shirt.

I was at a meeting this evening, The Friends Of The Glynn Vivian Art Gallery’s Annual General Meeting, and I spotted this chap in a stripey shirt. Of course I had to have a scribble, in Faber Castell Pitt drawing pens into a smooth, cloth-bound A5 sketchbook.

Saving Cilfai.

Here’s a little scribble I did this evening at a public meeting in the Saint Thomas area of Swansea to look at objections to the proposed Skyline development on Swansea’s Eastside. If you want to take a look at the Planning Application Comments section, please click here.

Celebrity Portrait In 2 Hours.

I taught an adult education class this afternoon with the 9-to-90 Creative Community at the excellent GS Artists on Swansea’s High Street. The theme was to paint a portrait of the Divine Diva, Dame Shirley Bassey. In TWO hours! A bit challenging 😀 But we did it. The results will be in the venue’s nextContinue reading “Celebrity Portrait In 2 Hours.”

A Face In The Crowd.

Sometimes you see a face and you’ve just got to sketch it. This guy was at The Jexit gig at The White Lion in Aberdare last week, grooving to the band. A face full of character.
