Here’s a quick warm-up sketch I did at life drawing last week at Swansea Print Workshop. After this I worked on a portrait study for an hour, but I find I need to have a quick scribble to start with, to get used to the model and pose before committing myself to a longerContinue reading “Warming Up”

Formidable
At the end of tonight’s life drawing session at Swansea Print Workshop, our model asked if she always looked ‘cross’ when she posed. I don’t think she looks cross at all, so I explained about what younger people call a “resting bitch face”. I roared with laughter when I first heard that phrase, but itContinue reading “Formidable”
My Muses In London
I’ve just emailed a digital artwork that’s going into an exhibition in London this weekend. It’s an animated sequence of some of the female models I work with and it’s called “My Muses”. It’s made up of life drawings that I’ve done on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 tablet with a free Markers app. I’veContinue reading “My Muses In London”
Life Drawing (Female Nude)
Just back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop. Our model has been working with us for seven years and she’s an absolute inspiration. Being an artist’s model isn’t just a matter of sitting still, good models bring an undefinable something to the creative process. I love going to the sessions, the group of artistsContinue reading “Life Drawing (Female Nude)”

IContinue reading “Now To Bed……”

Each gallery artist has a bit of wall to display their work. The Workers also has a Main Gallery forContinue reading “A Gallery Visit”
Just Back ….
Just back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop and I am pretty tired now. I was working with a marvellous young model this evening, using my Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8 with the free Markers app. I used my finger to draw as much as I did with the stylus and kept overlaying tonesContinue reading “Just Back ….”
Teasing
Another little snippet of the beginnings of the new work I started last weekend. And now I’m putting it all in a big draw in my plans chest until the big reveal in a year or so. Oh yes …….. Such a tease …… It’s a little bit of a ‘ghost’ monotype ……..
A Snippet
I posted a tiny bit of some work I started yesterday and today I took it a stage further. Here’s a little snippet of it but it’s secret at the moment so I can’t say anymore. Meanwhile, tomorrow …….
