Here are some sketches of the band VAILS, from last weekend at Hangar 18 at this year’s Swansea Fringe. I drew this first one into my rough Khadi sketchbook with a stick of Nitram charcoal. Then I did some very free sketches into my smooth sketchbook with a Faber Castell Pitt drawing pen. These are quick, as thereContinue reading “Swansea Fringe 2023: VAILS”

Swansea Fringe 2023: Lurcher 2
A couple more sketches from Lurcher‘s performance last weekend at Hangar 18 at this year’s Swansea Fringe. I drew this into my Khadi sketchbook, which is really rough paper, not suitable for pen work but great for my Derwent Inktense blocks. I scribbled the lines of the body and guitar straight onto the page with the point ofContinue reading “Swansea Fringe 2023: Lurcher 2”
Swansea Fringe 2023: Lurcher 1.
Another of the bands at Hangar 18 at this year’s Swansea Fringe, Lurcher‘s bassist’s great expansive movements onstage got me scribbling frantically. At one point I had 3 drawings of him on the go as he moved around so much, I was determined to capture him on paper. It’s unusual to see such a livelyContinue reading “Swansea Fringe 2023: Lurcher 1.”
Swansea Fringe 2023: Celavi 2
Celavi was the first band that Husb and I saw this Fringe season, in Hangar 18 and I drew Gwion, who has an extraordinary look, like a Neil Gaiman character interpreted by Dave McKean. The colour theme of the set is vivid pink and black so I used a Faber Castell Pitt drawing pen andContinue reading “Swansea Fringe 2023: Celavi 2”
It’s That Fringe Time Again! Celavi 1.
It was the annual Swansea Fringe again this weekend and I immersed myself in Heavy Metal, Rock and Scribbling at a couple of Swansea’s heavier venues. Here’s my first drawing of the Fringe, at Hangar 18, of the singer Sarah from the Bangor-based Nu-Metal band Celavi. She wore this amazing stage outfit of black PVCContinue reading “It’s That Fringe Time Again! Celavi 1.”
Hanging In The Hangar.
I drew these characters the other night, when Husb and I went to Hangar 18 at the weekend to see an alien band called Henge. I like sketching in public, drawing people in their wild state 😀
The Cosmic Alien.
Husb and I went to Hangar 18 at the weekend to see an alien band called Henge. They were brilliant – sort of cosmic psychedelic high energy rave-rock with a big dollop of humour. I did a scribble of the lead singer. I’m loving getting back to going to gigs, I realise how much IContinue reading “The Cosmic Alien.”
