Just back from the Saint George in Swansea, where Husb and I had a fantastic time listening to local band “Wild Eyed, Wicked and Oblivious“. I’m tired now, so I’ll just post the bass player, he has a proper old-fashioned tea-chest bass. Fabulous.

Smiles And Scribbles.
Here’s the last of the sketches I made last weekend at the Omnichron gig, a happy audience. It’s nice drawing a group as I can get to practice scale with the different figures there.
A Couple Of Heads.
A couple of scribbled heads from Friday evening, the gig of fabulous local band Omnichron. And I picked the first rhubarb of the season today, loads of it in the garden, it’s been unusually warm lately and I think it’s brought the rhubarb along a bit early.
Scribbling And Gigging
Husb and I went to a gig this evening, put on by Yes Cymru and featuring one of our favourite local bands, Omnichron. I guess I’d describe their music as psychedelic dance. Had a great time. Of course, I had to have a scribble or two.
The Last Hat.
The last sketch and last hat from the Imbolc gig. There seems to be a trend for hatted performers at the moment for some reason. This is a fine bit of headgear and thankfully this musician isn’t bearded or bespectacled so he was a bit easier to draw.
Just A Bandana.
I was scribbling at a gig recently and most of the performers had some sort of combination of hats, beards and spectacles, which I find quite hard to draw. But here’s a performer without any of them. But he had a bandana. First time I think I’ve drawn a bandana. But it was ok.
More Hats, Specs And Beards.
Some more little scribbles from the gig the other weekend at Imbolc. The three things I find hardest to draw in people…hats, specs and beards…all in one subject. Tough going especially as drawing live is quite difficult anyway, but really good practice.
Another Head, Another Hat.
More scribbling from me, done last Saturday, which was the ancient festival of Imbolc. A friend had his birthday party at the yacht club and there were loads of musicians. This young man in the snazzy hat played drums. I think that hats are hard to draw, but at least he didn’t have a beard orContinue reading “Another Head, Another Hat.”
Musical Pirates.
It was Imbolc last Saturday and Husb and I went to a gig celebrating not just Imbolc but also a friend’s birthday. He’s in a band of musical pirates called Band Bandanaars – see what they did there? Aaarrr. I scribbled the drummer because normally drummers are at the back and I can’t get aContinue reading “Musical Pirates.”
Scribbling At Imbolc.
Husb and I went to a gig last Saturday, February 1st, which is the ancient festival of Imbolc. Of course, I had to have a scribble. This singer-songwriter presented me with my triple challenge – a beard, a hat and a pair of spectacles. But it’s good practice.
