Building on top of what I did yesterday, I scribbled randomly with a white Daler Rowney soft pastel, instinctively concentrating the marks towards the centre. Then I added small amounts of colour – yellow, rose and blue. I don’t know how I’ll use this yet, I might rip it up for collage or I mightContinue reading “Scribbles On Scribbles”

Scribbles, Screens And Sketches
A while back, some years in fact, I made some photoscreens using little annotated drawings from one of my sketchbooks and I printed them up onto really nice Zerkall paper. Unfortunately, I didn’t like them. They didn’t seem, to me, to make the transition from sketch to screenprint. So I stuffed them in a drawContinue reading “Scribbles, Screens And Sketches”
A Gallery Visit
Husb and I paid a visit to the lovely Workers Gallery in Ynyshir in the Rhondda Valley today. I am one of the gallery artists and I wanted to change the work I’m displaying there. Each gallery artist has a bit of wall to display their work. The Workers also has a Main Gallery forContinue reading “A Gallery Visit”
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 …….
Sshhh!!!!
I’ve been working flat out on something secret. That’s all I can say but I’ll let you see a tiny snippet of one of my working drawings. This work won’t come to fruition for another year or so and I’m so excited about it. Watch this space……. But in the meanwhile, coming up veryContinue reading “Sshhh!!!!”
Two Birds With One Stone
I managed to kill two birds with one stone this evening, simultaneously doing a sketch for tonight’s blog and reaching Number 94 out of my target of drawing 100 Baby Boomers. Husb and I went to Swansea Storytelling Club and I scribbled while listening to artist and performer David Pitt. David and I haveContinue reading “Two Birds With One Stone”
A Taste Of Things To Come
An arty day, printing up a small vinyl block I cut some weeks ago. I’m working with prehistorian Dewi Bowen to produce a limited edition booklet for our event on July 31st at Swansea’s Cinema & Co. This is stage one……. We’ve been travelling across the wilder spaces of South Wales for about 18 monthsContinue reading “A Taste Of Things To Come”
When The Postman Knocked
For a few years now, I’ve entered the Leftovers international miniature print exchange, organised by the lovely printmakers at Wingtip Press, Boise, Idaho, USA. Printmakers from all over the world send an edition of 14 tiny original prints, done on pieces of leftover paper, and in return twelve are selected at random and sent back,Continue reading “When The Postman Knocked”
Stamping!
I’m going to be running some creative training sessions soon and one of them is going to be about stamping. That’s not moving your feet up and down with force, but the practice of creating new artworks from rubber – or lino or wood – stamps. I’ve been doing some work in this technique, inspiredContinue reading “Stamping!”
