Does what it says on the tin, really. Didn’t have anything interesting to draw today as I spent most of it down at the Print Workshop, printing up a block print and a drypoint and I forgot to take photos of what I did to blog. So I grabbed these and stuck them on aContinue reading “Two Jugs And A Sugar Bowl”

Mauled By Ming The Merciless
Ming The Merciless is a small fluffy tortoiseshell [calico] cat who tolerates us and shares her home with us. Because she is so fluffy, she needs to be combed, especially at this time of year when the kitties are moulting off their winter coat. Honestly, you’d think we were murdering her. It took husbContinue reading “Mauled By Ming The Merciless”
Keep That Line Going
There’s really no excuse for not drawing, but I find it almost impossible to draw everyday, I’m just too lazy. Also there’s only so much you can draw the husband, the cats, the chair and the feet without getting totally bored. I was feeling a bit guilty today as I haven’t drawn for aContinue reading “Keep That Line Going”
It’s Saturday – Here’s A Kitteh!
It’s Saturday evening and husb and I have a dreaded lurgi. Nothing serious, just one of those nasty bugs that make you feel achey and miserable. I spent most of the day at the Print Workshop, proof printing a couple of blockprints I’m working on [I posted a bit about them a couple of daysContinue reading “It’s Saturday – Here’s A Kitteh!”
Big Bottomed Cat In A Kitty Sketchbook
I had some new sketchbooks for Xmas. I love getting sketchbooks for presents. This is a lovely little one, about size A6, sewn binding, acid-free sustainable paper and a lovely cover that flips over itself and closes magnetically, by Paperblanks. Chuffed with it. It’s fitting that the very first sketch should be of a cat.Continue reading “Big Bottomed Cat In A Kitty Sketchbook”
In the life drawing studio [4] – caution, nude figures.
It’s been a hard day, finishing painting the walls in the new studio and I haven’t had time to do any sketchbook drawing so far. Did loads of cooking when I got home and then the cats started behaving like mad things – chasing each other all over the place and ripping stuff up.Continue reading “In the life drawing studio [4] – caution, nude figures.”
Ups, Downs And A Cat In A Drain.
It been a funny old year, lots of ups and downs. So many people – relatives, friends and acquaintances – have been seriously ill or have died but this is also the year that I took the plunge to let go of a successful career and move into a studio and become a full-time artist,Continue reading “Ups, Downs And A Cat In A Drain.”
Bella The Blue Merle Collie.
We went off to West Wales to the Presceli Mountains today to visit old friends, intending to go for a bracing walk in the beautiful rugged countryside. Then the gales and rains came in torrents, so we stayed in, eating lovely home-cooked food and sharing delighful conversation. I had itchy fingers and really wantedContinue reading “Bella The Blue Merle Collie.”
Central Heating Broke! But The Cats Are Alright!
Disaster. Central heating malfunction. In the middle of winter. At the weekend. Freezing cold, pouring with rain. Had to go out to buy food, got soaked, couldn’t dry anything when we came home. We’ve battened down the hatches, drawn the heavy curtains, huddled in one room with an electric heater and filled some antique stonewareContinue reading “Central Heating Broke! But The Cats Are Alright!”
A Biro, A Boiler and Two Cats.
Every cat I’ve shared my life with has loved our large central heating boiler. It’s a massive floor-standing one with plenty of space for a cat and toaster on the top and one or two cats on chairs and stools in front of it. Here’s a drawing I did a few years ago of myContinue reading “A Biro, A Boiler and Two Cats.”
