Another head of a performer from the Riverside Folk Club a couple of weeks ago. It’s an eclectic mix of music, folk and country, blues and bluegrass, the occasional small choir and even a bit of comedic verse. I drew this with a 2B graphite block into a Khadi sketchbook.

Deep In Focus.
I was at the Riverside folk club the other evening and scribbled away in my sketch book. This performer was deeply focused, very wrapped up in performing. I used a 2B Koh-i-Noor graphite block into a square Khadi handmade paper sketchbook.
Feisty Folkie With Risqué Rhymes.
This guy was a hoot at the Riverside Folk Club the other evening. No refined refrains for him, straight into some robust renditions of saucy songs.
The Joy Of Drawing!
Sometimes I just want to draw for the sheer joy of it. Some people love to sing, or to run as fast as they can. I love to draw. I was at the Riverside folk club the other evening and scribbled away in my sketch book. I often draw musicians and audiences at music events,Continue reading “The Joy Of Drawing!”
Scribbling And Song In The Old Quarry
Lockdown is easing and things are starting to happen. Husb and I went to Rosehill Quarry at tea time to listen to Swansea folk musician, Angharad Jenkins, perform her recent song about the Quarry. It was a lovely sunny and warm Spring afternoon and Angharad sang to a group of local people of all agesContinue reading “Scribbling And Song In The Old Quarry”

Gigs are a good opportunity for drawing as people are usually engrossed in what’s going on and keep reasonably still. Unless it’s a heavy metal gig. I’m usuallyContinue reading “The Last Heads”
A Nice Bit Of Perspective
Scribbling away at Loughor folk club the other evening, I saw this interesting arrangement of a hand in the foreground and a head in the back ground. Nice bit of perspective, I thought. So I scribbled it…..
Faces At The Folk Club
Some more scribbles from the Loughor Folk Club the other evening. Loughor is an interesting little fishing village on the estuary of the River Loughor / Afan Llwchwr.
At The Folk Club
Husb sings in a small community choir and they did a few songs at Loughor Folk Club, so I went along. Of course, I had to have a scribble. It’s held at the local yacht club which is why there are boaty things on the wall.
A Bit Stiff
Husb and I paid a rare visit to a pub yesterday evening to see a live band, Carreg Llafar, who play contemporary folk in the Welsh language. Being a rock chick, I’m not a big fan of folk music but I make an exception for Carreg Llafar who bring authenticity and atmosphere to traditional music.Continue reading “A Bit Stiff”
