Drawing In Darkness
I went to an illustrated talk by Andrew Renton at the Glynn Vivian Art Gallery yesterday, part of the excellent Tigers and Dragons exhibition.

Saw these two chatting in the Glynn Vivian Art Gallery the other day so I scribbled them! I used a continuous line technique which I find easier for working out perspective and scale. I used a black ballpoint pen into my A5 cloth-bound sketchbook.

Just a few more days left of my residency in the Waun Wen area of the city and Dan McCabe from Swansea’s Glynn Vivian Art Gallery came up and did a fab session about indigo dyeing with some local residents.
