I guess that July 2014 was a hot summer month going by all the sketches I did of people on the beach. The slightest bit of sunshine and we’re off down to Swansea Bay in our swimming cozzies. There were a fair few beer bellies and unfortunately a few “Budgie Smugglers” (Speedo men’s swimming trunks)Continue reading “Sketchbook Archives: 46 – beer bellies and budgie smugglers…”

Sketchbook Archives: 45
Here are some people drawings from way back in June 2014, mostly in pen into a sketchbook but the last one is a digital scribble on my old Samsung Note 8 tablet, using a free Markers app. I did a bit of travelling that month, to London and Vienna. I used to travel a lotContinue reading “Sketchbook Archives: 45”
A Walk In The Woods
It’s been a gorgeous day, sunny and warm but not too warm, Autumnal. Husb and I hopped in the car around 4.30 and headed off out of the busy centre to Penllegare Woods, a truly magical place on the outskirts of the city. We spent an hour or so walking through the beautiful woodland, pastContinue reading “A Walk In The Woods”
Sketchbook Archives: 44
Some very quick sketches here, from June 2014. One of the good things of having little relatives is that they get very busy when you take them to the beach, a great chance to do some speed sketching.

It was enchanting. I’ve never heard anything like it. Husb and I loved it.Continue reading “Y Delynor: The Harpist”
Humungous Boots!
Just look at these big bad boys! Boots are getting bigger and bigger at gigs, but the legs don’t seem to be growing to fit.
Back At The Bunkhouse: 3
A couple of backs at the Bunkhouse in this little scribble. Husb and I were there over the weekend, it’s a good venue. The man had HUGE trainers.
Back At The Bunkhouse: 2
I saw another back at the Bunkhouse and a side-view too, so I had to have a scribble. Husb and I were there on Saturday night, enjoying some funky vibes.
Back At The Bunkhouse:1
Husb and I went to a gig at The Bunkhouse on Saturday and I had to have a scribble. I saw this guy’s back and wanted to draw him from behind. So I did.
