Metal Legs: 1.

Husb and I went out to see a heavy metal band the other evening, locals Suns Of Thunder at Elysium. Fantastic – very loud, very dancy – I had to have a scribble! I had my tiny leather-bound sketchbook with me and it’s too small for a lot of detail so, what to draw? IContinue reading “Metal Legs: 1.”

Cafe, Coffee, Scribble…

Popped into my favourite cafe, Waterstones in Swansea, earlier for a coffee and of course, I had to have a scribble. Just a quick one.

I managed to find a bit of time for sketching though, with my Faber Castell Pitt drawing pens (Sepia) and Inktense watercolour blocks. IContinue reading “Wonderful Colourful.”

Bearded Quickies.

I did some quick sketches today, of the same man but from different angles. He has a beard, high forehead and glasses which is a difficult combination to sketch. It’s all good practice though.

Yesterday I made a couple of sheets of little circular designs, 24 in all, trying out some ideas for some Adult Education sessions I’ll be running soon. Today I chose 10 of them to make up into badges and mount onto a small canvas that I painted black. I’ve had the badge machine for aContinue reading
