Here’s the final pair of drawings I made during Fringe Arts Bath last Saturday. Working with an ad hoc group of artists, The Plebeian Scribblers, we did some sessions of performance drawing in the street during A FAB Intervention, curated by Melanie Ezra and Tim Kelly. The drawing on the left features the hat ofContinue reading “The Hat And The Fox”

Middle Aged Legs
Out with The Plebeian Scribblers at Fringe Arts Bath on Saturday, the four of use did a choreographed drawing performance. Well, simply choreographed. We turned and faced a different direction every 7.5 minutes, turning 90 degrees each time and drawing what was in front of us. After the complete 360 degrees we went back toContinue reading “Middle Aged Legs”

IContinue reading “Fox In The Street.”

That made the drawing more interesting for me toContinue reading “Telling A Story”

We each did 10 drawings of ten minutes each. That’s aContinue reading “FAB Day Drawing”
Valadon Screen – Next Step
I left the Speedball Diazo drawing fluid to dry overnight after I had done my drawing of the artist Suzanne Valadon onto my screen. The next step is to mask it with the Speedball Filler. I drizzled a line of it, after a vigorous shake, at the top edge of the drawing (the screens wereContinue reading “Valadon Screen – Next Step”
