Another Face In The Crowd….

  Here’s another face in the crowd who got scribbled. I can’t help myself. Leave a bit of paper and a pencil on the table in front of me and this is what happens….  

Marc, Frank And Victoria (Sandwich)

  I’m back in the house for about 20 minutes between hearing the marvellous artist Marc Rees give a talk at the Glynn Vivian Art Gallery about his upcoming art extravaganza “Now The Hero / Nawr Yr Arwr” and heading off to life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop with my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 tabletContinue reading “Marc, Frank And Victoria (Sandwich)”

A Face In The Crowd

I spent a couple of days in London at a conference and there were a few opportunities during breaks for a quick scribble of faces in the crowd. I did this in about 5 minutes using an HB pencil onto the conference notepaper.

Straps

  Husb and I went to some talks at our local art gallery and it was hot, been a long hot summer, and people were wearing as little as possible to cope with the stuffiness. I had a quick scribble. When I was a lass, it was absolutely taboo for our bra straps to show,Continue reading “Straps”

Between The Trees

Husb and I met up with friends and spent a great day at the “Between The Trees” festival, set in woodlands near Candlestone Castle and the Merthyr Mawr nature reserve, a huge sand dune system. We walked through the dunes in the early Autumn sunshine to the picturesque saltmarsh and back and listened to someContinue reading “Between The Trees”

Walking In Their Footsteps

  Here’s the final drawing I did last Bank Holiday Monday, when I joined a group of women from across South Wales to remember the original women’s peace march that led to Greenham Common back in 1989. We set out from Swansea really early, then had speeches, songs and a short march around Alexandra GardensContinue reading “Walking In Their Footsteps”

Banners And Badges

Commemorating The Peace March

  Yesterday I went on a journey, leaving Swansea by coach at 8.30 am, heading to Cardiff to commemorate the start of the Women’s Peace March to Greenham Common, way back in 1981. Organised by Women’s Archive Wales, there were speeches and songs in Alexandra Gardens and we took a walk around the area withContinue reading “Commemorating The Peace March”

A Long Day

  I had a long day today, it was good but tiring so I’ll tell you about it tomorrow. Here’s one of the drawings I did, this one is a digital drawing on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 using a free Markers app.    

Resting On My Knee

This is the eleventh of my “Up Yer Nose” series of digital drawings. I start by taking a digital photo of my victims …. er …. volunteers …. then I look at the photo on my phone, resting on my knee, while I draw freehand into my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 using a free MarkersContinue reading “Resting On My Knee”
