Husb and I normally go to metal and rock gigs, but for a change we went along to Mission Gallery in Swansea yesterday to listen to a performance of the Welsh Triple Harp by the harpist (y delynor) Robin Huw Bowen. It was enchanting. I’ve never heard anything like it. Husb and I loved it.Continue reading “Y Delynor: The Harpist”

Humungous Boots!
Just look at these big bad boys! Boots are getting bigger and bigger at gigs, but the legs don’t seem to be growing to fit.
Sketchbook Archives: 41
It’s archive time again, from March 2014. Here are 4 sketchbook scribbles and a sketch on newspaper that I did at a “live” drawing session.
Back At The Bunkhouse: 3

It was a picnic on the beach a few weeks ago, snatched when we had no idea how long this heatwave was going to last, making the most of it, sandy sandwiches and all.
Joio! Enjoy!
Husb and I went to the Amplitude music festival in Swansea this evening, a free event put on by Swansea Council as part of it’s “Joio! Enjoy!” summer programme. The aim of the festival is to give local talent a chance to reach new audiences. It was fab and I had a scribble, of course.Continue reading “Joio! Enjoy!”
#Caturday Saturday
I acquired some second hand Derwent Aquatone watercolour sticks recently and I’m giving them a try-out. I used a stencil I made of our little rescue cat William Chatnoir aka Bill, to draw a couple of outlines onto some heavyweight Khadi paper and used an Escoda brush to start blending three different blues together.
