A Simple Still-Life: A “How To” Film.
Here’s a short (2 minute) “How To” film from a recent session I ran at GS Artists in Swansea, as part of their 9to90 Community Arts programme. It was a simple still-life in acrylic paints. The film shows how I started with a couple of basic drawing techniques and then took a look at some examples of still-life paintings ofContinue reading “A Simple Still-Life: A “How To” Film.”
Charcoal Drawing: A “How To” Film.
Here’s a short “How To” film from a recent drawing session I ran at GS Artists in Swansea, as part of their 9to90 Community Arts programme.

It isn’t pretentious and bourgeois, it’s down to earth, relatable and often fun. The poems were performed by aContinue reading “Poetry, Fundraising and Swansea Market.”
Pictures For An Exhibition.
I did a whole load of drawings at Crowleys Rock Bar in the Swansea Fringe back before Christmas and they’re going to be in an exhibition at another rock music venue, The Bunkhouse, in Swansea! Cool! The drawings are in my sketchbook which I don’t want to dismember, so I scanned and printed a selectionContinue reading “Pictures For An Exhibition.”

Husb has made a – very – short video of a mixed media piece I did a while back, combining transfer print and drawing. In it I talk about the method I used. And all in one minute! The drawing is based on one I did in my sketchbook – I’m always scribbling people –Continue reading “Cool Dude And New Video.”
