Hunting the Wild Megalith, a new book about Neolithic monuments in Wales by Dewi Bowen and Olwyn Pritchard with art by Rosie Scribblah

Modernists At The Gallery.

I scribbled this little one hard at work creating a collage at GS Artists last Friday. The group was inspired by an exhibition supporting a new book by Catrin Saran James, “Modernist Swansea”. In the background is a quilt based on some iconic tile designs around the city centre, sadly disappearing, by local artist LauraContinue reading “Modernists At The Gallery.”

Hunting The Wild Megalith, a new book by Dewi Bowen, which features my artwork from the field.

Scribbling, Visiting And Bara Brith.

I dropped by GS Artists on High Street this afternoon. It’s a fab gallery and community artspace and every Friday afternoon there’s the 9 to 90 Creative Community art club, with different art activities each week. Of course I had to have a scribble! Then I went home and made some Bara Brith after tea.Continue reading “Scribbling, Visiting And Bara Brith.”

The Fiddler.

Another sketchbook drawing from the lovely gig at Elysium on Saint David’s Day. Singer, composer, musician Angharad Jenkins thrilled us with her wonderful set. I had to have a scribble, of course, but haven’t done her justice. It’s not easy drawing people moving around a lot, but it’s really good practice.

Dydd Gwŷl Dewi Sant Hapus.

Happy Saint David’s Day. Husb and I went to a celebration of Welsh culture at Elysium this evening, with poetry and music and song, Welsh Cakes and Cawl Cennen a Thatws (Leek and Potato Soup). Of course I had to have a scribble, of talented young pianist Eddie Gripper.

#StandingStoneSunday 23

It’s yet another #StandingStoneSunday and here’s a drawing I made of the fabulous King’s Quoit monument in Manorbier, Pembrokeshire. It’s been overlooking the sea here for about 5,000 years. It’s a spectacular location for a truly magnificent dolmen and also a lovely place for a drive and a day out.

More Sketchbook Figures

Just a couple of people standing around at the gallery the other evening. I scribbled them with a ballpoint pen into my A5 leather-bound sketchbook.
