Another one from my sketchbook
A small, fast sketch of a person reading from a desk.
A Figure At Rest
Just a quick scribble in my sketchbook of someone sitting quietly – and still – having a rest.
A Feisty Niece, a Furry Cat and a Film.
A short film of artist Rosie Scribblah doing a painting of her feisty niece with an appearance of Sparta Puss the cat.

Just that. Faces in a theatre. I scribbled them.
Modernists At The Gallery.
I scribbled this little one hard at work creating a collage at GS Artists last Friday. The group was inspired by an exhibition supporting a new book by Catrin Saran James, “Modernist Swansea”.

I had to have a scribble, of course, but haven’t done her justice. It’s not easy drawing people moving around a lot, but it’s really good practice.
