It’s #Caturday Saturday again and here’s another cat sketch from my sketchbook archives, January 2016. This is a very quick sketch as she didn’t stay still for long when she was awake back in those days. She was a mere 7 years old then, this Autumn she’ll be 17. And still as feisty as sheContinue reading “#Caturday Archives: 46”

It’s #Caturday Saturday again and here’s another cat sketch from my sketchbook archives, January 2016. Sparta Puss looks like butter wouldn’t melt in her mouth! Don’t be fooled. This is a quick sketch with Faber Castell Pitt drawing pens. I have three linocut prints in the Miniprint Cymru Wales exhibition in Mostyn in Llandudno, North Wales, openContinue reading “#Caturday Archive: 45”

It’s #Caturday Saturday again and here’s another cat sketch from my sketchbook archives, December 2015. It’s “Puss’n’Boot“, or Sparta Puss and my walking boot, with my foot in it. I was chilling with my feet up and Sparta Puss snuck in and made herself comfy so I scribbled her. I have three linocut prints inContinue reading “#Caturday Archive: 44”
Drawing With Colour: 2
Following on from yesterday’s post, here’s another recent life drawing in colour, instead of my normal black and white. I’m going to try and do at least one colour drawing each session. I’m using Derwent Inktense blocks here onto a heavyweight white paper partly overlaid with a brown speckled Mulberry paper.
Drawing With Colour: 1
Mostly I draw in black on white, but now and again I mix it up a bit and get out some pastels or watercolour drawing blocks (like Derwent Inktense) and use a combination of fine line sketching (Faber Castell Pitt drawing pens) and watercolour drawn on and then wetted using a water reservoir brush.

It’s #Caturday Saturday once again. This is from my old sketchbooks, back in December 2015. Just a couple of very quick scribbles at feeding time.

It’s #Caturday Saturday once again. Looking through my old sketchbooks, I did quite a few scribbles of Sparta Puss back in November 2015. I used to have a very comfy IKEA Poang chair, but it was Sparta’s favourite chair as well. Here she is, keeping me off it!

It’s #Caturday Saturday again and here’s a sketch of Sparta Puss asleep back in November 2015. I did it with Faber Castell Pitt drawing pens into an A6 size leather-bound sketchbook.
Once Upon A Time…
Way back in 2007, Husb and I went on a two week trip to Pakistan, travelling across the country with a group of Welsh, Danish and Pakistani companions in a large minibus. It was truly magical. Here are a few of the sketchbook drawings I did when we were up in the mountains in theContinue reading “Once Upon A Time…”
Playing With Pattern
This is the final sketch I did at the last life drawing session of 2025 at Swansea Print Workshop. Although she has short hair, it is styled and I used my pen to create patterns. It’s given me ideas for how I might develop it.
