#Caturday Archives: 29

Here’s another digital drawing from October 2014, with our darling Little Ming, a tiny but feisty and fluffy Naughty Tortie. This drawing also features my outrageously coloured slippers, socks and dressing gown. I still have the dressing gown, it’s lasted well, just the ticket for wrapping up warm on cold, dark nights. I used aContinue reading “#Caturday Archives: 29”

#Caturday Archives: 28

Back to October 2014 for this #Caturday Archive. I was still having fun with digital drawing, using a free Markers app on my Samsung Tablet Note 8. SpartaPuss the Naughty Tortie was about 5 years old here. She had her back to me but was interested in what I was doing, you can tell byContinue reading “#Caturday Archives: 28”

#Caturday Archives: 27

Here’s a digital drawing of the Late, Great Little Ming, a tiny, fluffy, pretty one-eyed Naughty Tortie, who was also the scourge of our local vet’s surgery! We could pick her up, cwtch her, snuggle her, but when she was put into a cat basket and taken to the vet, she turned into a demon!Continue reading “#Caturday Archives: 27”

Sketchbook Archives: 39

February 2014 was a month of mostly digital drawing, and I continued January’s animal theme with these little studies of foxes. Eleven years ago I had rarely seen a fox in the city, now I see loads, along with bats, squirrels, seagulls and birds of prey – kestrels, red kites and occasionally peregrine falcons. We’reContinue reading “Sketchbook Archives: 39”

Scruffy, Bitey, Digital Cat

Just doodling this evening with my Samsung Galaxy Note 8, a free app called “Markers” and Sparta Puss. She’s looking a bit scruffy because it’s Springtime and she’s moulting. She needs brushing but every time I get near her with a brush, she bites me. Hey ho.

The Digital Cat

I’ve been using a free Markers app on my Galaxy Samsung tablet (note 8) for a few years now but there was one drawing tool I had not used so I’ve been having a go with it this evening, using Sparta Puss as a model. She looks impressed, not!

Paisley Daps

This coronavirus situation is weird for me, creatively. I seem to be unable to do anything meaningful, I have no ideas about how to do some art that is relevant. It will come with time, I suppose – I hope. In the meanwhile, I need to just knuckle down and practice. So I drew myContinue reading “Paisley Daps”

Chonk!

I can’t keep the creative juices flowing constantly. I think most artists are the same. It isn’t a 9 to 5 job. Some days I don’t make art, but I still like to draw, even for a few minutes, to keep my hand in. That’s where the cat comes in handy, she’s always around forContinue reading “Chonk!”

Little Lulu

Here’s another family kitty… shhhh …. don’t tell Sparta Puss! She’s a very slimline tortoiseshell cat called Lulu. I drew her on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 with a free app called Markers.

Drawing Obsessively

I’m getting a bit obsessed with drawing Mari Lwyds; I’m thinking of doing some larger artworks incorporating them so I’m drawing them from lots of different angles as preparation studies. I’m choosing random photos from the Internet at the moment, but I’ll be going out to do some en plein air drawings on the 13thContinue reading “Drawing Obsessively”
