From Pakistan To Pentre Ifan
I’ve been posting a lot recently about my Pakistan trip in 2007, but when I came back I was inspired to go out and look at my Welsh heritage, visiting our ancient stone monuments over three years, in all weathers. Here are some of my photos from that time and if you want to seeContinue reading “From Pakistan To Pentre Ifan”
Colour In Print: Colour In Wool
Almost 20 years ago, I paid my first visit to Pakistan and was blown away by how beautiful and friendly it is. I did loads of sketches and photos and when I came back home, I used these as inspiration for new artwork. This portrait of a man from the Hunza Valley is done usingContinue reading “Colour In Print: Colour In Wool”
The Old Silk Route

I was doing a lot in the three-colour separation monotype technique at the time. I learnt the process from American artist Vinita Voogd who cameContinue reading “The Old Silk Route”

When I came back I did a lot of work based on that trip. I did this suite of 9 portraits, carved and printed from signwriter’s boardContinue reading “Pakistan, Portraits And Recycling”
#Caturday Archives: 40
It’s #Caturday Saturday again and back in November 2015 I printed up some plywood that I had carved with some stylised images of my cat, Sparta Puss, climbing a net curtain. She threw some great shapes. I based the woodcut on sketches I had made.

The gallery is just a few minutes walk from Neath railway station, which is on the mainline from LondonContinue reading “Last Week To See…”
Another Drawing To Lino Print
This is the fourth portrait drawing I’ve turned into a linocut print since since I started back at Swansea Print Workshop after a long break (see here). Below is the original sketch with the different stages of the process – carving the block and then inking up with Cranfield SafeWash Relief ink. This model has a veryContinue reading “Another Drawing To Lino Print”
