I recently posted about the Miniprint Cymru exhibition in Mostyn (gallery) in Llandudno, North Wales (see here) and here are the three linocuts I have on show there. They’re each 10 x 10 cm (about 4 x 4 inches). The top one, “Should Bill Get Some Bacon” is printed using the chine collé technique toContinue reading “These Three In North Wales”

Here are some old sketchbook scribbles, from April 2015. It must have been good weather because I’m out and about a lot.
Colour In Print: Colour In Wool
Almost 20 years ago, I paid my first visit to Pakistan and was blown away by how beautiful and friendly it is. I did loads of sketches and photos and when I came back home, I used these as inspiration for new artwork. This portrait of a man from the Hunza Valley is done usingContinue reading “Colour In Print: Colour In Wool”
Heads And Faces
Husb and I went to a gig at the Arena in Swansea a few nights ago, I scribbled some random faces and heads in the interval. It’s good practice.

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.
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.
Pakistan, Portraits And Recycling
Back in 2007, Husb and I went on a two week trip to Pakistan, travelling across the country with a motley group of companions in a large minibus. When I came back I did a lot of work based on that trip. I did this suite of 9 portraits, carved and printed from signwriter’s boardContinue reading “Pakistan, Portraits And Recycling”
A Random Head
Just a random head in graphite into my Indigo-bound A6 sketchbook. I like the way he looks, he suited my scribbly style.
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”
