Here’s a short video of my drawing of Sparta Puss, step by step. It’s a digital drawing done on a Samsung Galaxy Note 8 with a free Markers app. I saved the drawing frequently and then Husb edited it together on Adobe Premiere Pro with a free soundtrack from Purple Planet. She was in aContinue reading “Cat Face – my drawing on video”

Day Trip To Sweden
Husb and I went on a bus from Denmark to Sweden today, across THE BRIDGE which featured in the television series of the same name. We spent a few hours exploring Malmo, which has an ‘English Shop’ that sells Marmite for British expats to smuggle across THE BRIDGE because it’s illegal in Denmark. We foundContinue reading “Day Trip To Sweden”
Ratstein!
Sparta Puss here. I managed to get my paws on the pooter box again. My trained monkeys are still busy faffing around after the rat I brought in to entertain myself. Turns out the wily rodent is some kind of genius; the stupid simians have nicknamed it Ratstein after some supposedly clever hoomin scientist. AsContinue reading “Ratstein!”
The Dog House
Greetings hairless apes. Sparta Puss here. It’s been a long time. My trained monkeys have been keeping me away from the pooter box but I managed to distract them for a while. It’s Spring and every year I bring them some rats to play with. Such fun. The she-ape jumps on chairs and squeals andContinue reading “The Dog House”
Bye Bye Birdy
Richard the Bird, our little visitor, returned home to his humans today. They’re back from their travels and picked him up this evening so I had a final few scribbles. He’s been with us for a month and we’re missing the little tyke already. He’d gotten used to us and treated Husb like some sortContinue reading “Bye Bye Birdy”
Fatty Bum Bum
Sparta Puss has put on a shedload of weight over the Winter! She resists all attempts to put her on a diet so I’m naming and shaming her! I can’t cut down her rations too much because we’re looking after a Senegal parrot for a few weeks while his humans are on holidays and wheneverContinue reading “Fatty Bum Bum”
Richard The Bird’s Holiday
Richard, our family parrot, has come to stay for a couple of weeks while his trained monkeys are on holiday. He’s fair game for a scribble, but he’s such a fidget and won’t keep still. I tried him with a Koh I Noor graphite pencil in 8B first, then went back to my comfort zone,Continue reading “Richard The Bird’s Holiday”
Slobbing Out
Here’s a sleepy cat from a sleepy me. Another one of those evenings when I am slobbing out on my comfy chair with Sparta Puss on the stool. So that’s my daily drawing done. I drew this on my Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8 using the free Markers app.
Mindless Telly
What a day. Terrific opening of the new printmaking show at Galerie Simpson earlier. Now I’m shattered and slumped in front of the telly. There isn’t a cat available for sketching, they’re refusing to hang out with the trained monkeys because they’re on the roof bothering magpies, so it’s Husb again. And now, The Voice.Continue reading “Mindless Telly”
End Of The Day
Another long day with little time to draw but the cat, Ming the Merciless is dozing at my feet so it’s another quick cat sketch from me. It’s good practice to draw another species, getting to grips with different anatomy. This is a digital sketch on my Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8 using the freeContinue reading “End Of The Day”
