Husb and I visited some friends in Pembrokeshire today and went walking in the beautiful Presceli countryside. It was chilly but the sunshine was glorious. We passed some fat fluffy horses and I was worried that one of them had caught its tail in a fence. But my country friends explained that it was justContinue reading “Saint Elvis And The Scratch”

Beery, Beardy And Flatulent
Husb and I spent New Year’s Eve dancing the night away at a local nightclub to a groovy Funk disco and a fab Funk band called Disco Panther. Great time but I’m aching all over now. I don’t normally drink alcohol but tried a small bottle of a pale foreign beer with aContinue reading “Beery, Beardy And Flatulent”
The Poppies At The Tower
Back in November, Husb and I went up to London to meet up with friends and do a few exhibitions – the Egon Schiele at the Courtauld and the Grayson Perry at National Portrait Gallery – fabulous. We also trekked across the city to go and see the extraordinary installation Blood Swept Land And Seas OfContinue reading “The Poppies At The Tower”
A Cartoon Nude
So I was only out for about 40 minutes first thing and I didn’t have time to scribble anything and I’ve been working on the computer all day because it isn’t all about creating arty stuff, I wish it was and I’m fed up scribbling my feet, Husb and the cats so here’s oneContinue reading “A Cartoon Nude”
A Slow Dance
Swansea Beach was pretty busy today with loads of walkers and dogs. The weather was fantastic, very bright and sunny with a crisp chill. There was a small group of people who seemed to be having a slow dance. It wasn’t slow enough to scribble so I took a photo and did a sketch fromContinue reading “A Slow Dance”
Bone Idle
A totally lazy day today. It’s Sunday, it’s Xmas time and Husb, the cats and I did absolutely nothing all day. Except a spot of cooking, watching mindless telly and Facebooking. Here’s a quickie of Husb doing nothing. Drawn with a Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8 using the free Markers app in about 10 minutes.
A Winter Visit
It’s a bit of a tradition at this time of year to visit our dead loved ones in cemeteries and memorial gardens. I went with Husb and Mam-in-Law to visit Dad-in-Law’s memorial stone in our local cemetery. It’s a lovely place, green with lots of trees and the noonday winter sun was low in theContinue reading “A Winter Visit”
Lazy Day
Apart from a visit to some delightful relatives, today’s been a lazy day. Yesterday was such lovely weather that Husb and I walked about 8 kilometres along the seafront in Swansea. Today we woke up to torrential rain and high winds so now this evening we’re cwtched at home behind tightly drawn curtains watching television.Continue reading “Lazy Day”

Catacombs & Xmas
Following on from yesterday’s post, here are a couple more sepia drawings I did based on sketches from the St. Paul’s Catacombs in Rabat in Malta. The originals are very slight, quick scribbles. I wanted to try working with the walnut husk ink I made a few weeks ago. I don’t normally work with wetContinue reading “Catacombs & Xmas”
