Mostly I blog at night and this is my 1001st blog post so I thought it was a neat title. I have just come back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop. I concentrated on portraiture this week. It’s nice to have a very hairy person to draw and I got very Renaissance in myContinue reading “1001 Nights”

A Thousand and a Quickie On The Beach
Apart from a quick sprint to the post office and local Co-op, I spent most of today slaving over a hot computer; Premiere Pro, Photoshop and Comic Life. So I was stir crazy by this evening. I grabbed Husb after dinner and we went for a trot down the beach, Swansea Bay is only aContinue reading “A Thousand and a Quickie On The Beach”
Rain, Rest And A Little Darling
Last night was the opening of the Commensalis group show at The Octagon in Fringe Arts Bath. Husb and I went up for the opening night and took in some of the other venues as well – more than 40 shows in 15 venues until June the 8th and all for free! The traffic backContinue reading “Rain, Rest And A Little Darling”
Fiendish Foreshortening (Female Nude)
Just back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop and here’s a drawing in progress. The pose was about 45 minutes. I used my Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8 using the free Markers app,saving regularly to keep a record of the development of the drawing. I like to go to life drawing regularly as theContinue reading “Fiendish Foreshortening (Female Nude)”
Foxy Again
End of a long day and I haven’t done a drawing so I found one of my favourite Facebook groups, The Fox Project and did a digital sketch using one of the fox pictures as a reference. I drew into my Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8, using the Marker free app.
Head And Shoulders
Just back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop and I have been focusing on drawing a head and shoulders pose. Our model was sitting above my eyeline with her head tilted back which I find very hard to draw, so it was good practice. I used my Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8 using theContinue reading “Head And Shoulders”
Practice Makes Perfect (Maybe)
I’m having a quick scribble with Husb sat opposite on the settee. I’m using my Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note with the free Markers app. One advantage of doing a digital drawing is that I can save the stages to show how the drawing develops. It’s not a good likeness but daily drawing is about practice,Continue reading “Practice Makes Perfect (Maybe)”
Back To Normal
Just got back from the life drawing session at Swansea Print Workshop. I’ve been home from Pakistan for 5 days and need to re establish my regular routine. I have worked with this model for some years now; tonight I decided to focus on doing a portrait. I saved it frequently to show the developmentContinue reading “Back To Normal”
Last Night In Islamabad
We went to a literary festival in Islamabad on our last evening and as usual, I had a scribble. I used my Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8 and saved the drawing regularly to show the different stages, using a free Markers app. This lady was sitting in front of us. My residency in the ZairaContinue reading “Last Night In Islamabad”
Messi Moggy
My first blog post in Pakistan just had to be a kitteh. This is Messi who is named after Lionel Messi, the Argentinian footballer who plays for Barcelona. Messi lives in the house where I’m staying. There is also a printmaking studio with accommodation attached for the artists in residence. Yesterday was spent recovering fromContinue reading “Messi Moggy”
