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”

They Moved

I’m scribbling in a sandwich shop in Kuwait Airport on my way to Pakistan. I homed in on these two chaps having a snack nearby using a free Markers app on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8. It’s always a risk when you sketch in public that your subject might move. This place does a crackingContinue reading “They Moved”

The Hard Hand

Just back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop. I chose to punish myself this evening with a foreshortened hand. It was hard. After the tea break (with a Victoria Sandwich) we had a one-hour pose and I spent the whole time working on this hand and knee.

Saucer Eyes

Another day stuck behind a computer, phoning, going to meetings …… it’s a good job that I’ve committed to producing an artblog each day otherwise I’d never get any artwork done! I popped over to The Fox Project again for a look at their photos and came across a little cub with huge saucer eyes.Continue reading “Saucer Eyes”

Fox And Frustration

It’s been a frustrating day. I’ve been searching for airfares online since lunchtime and I’m sick of the sight of the computer! I haven’t done anything creative so I searched the photos of one of my favourite Facebook sites, The Fox Project. I had a quick scribble. Here it is. And now to bed. Goodnight.Continue reading “Fox And Frustration”

Scribbly Male Nude

Another of the life drawings I did last week. I got really free with the scribbling on this one and had a bit of a play. That’s one good thing about going digital, you don’t get precious about wasting paper and drawing materials because you can just wipe the screen and start again with noContinue reading “Scribbly Male Nude”
