They were exhibited in the Fringe Arts Bath festival later that year.Continue reading “Sketchbook Archives: 40”

Here’s a digital drawing of Sparta Puss from May 2014, when she was coming up to 5 years old. The nice thing about sketching on my Galaxy Tablet Note 8 is that I could hit the “save” button regularly and make a record of the stages of the drawing. I used a Markers free appContinue reading “#Caturday Archives: 25”

It’s such a long time ago now, that I did a month-long artist residency in Pakistan, it was wonderful. And I met a Pakistani cat called Messi. So I drew him. I was going through a digital drawing phase at the time, using a free Markers app on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8.

Back about a decade ago I went through a phase of drawing on a Galaxy Tablet using a free “Markers” app. This is a digital sketch of a young Sparta, she was about 4 and a half years old here. She’s 16 this Autumn.
