February 2014 was a month of mostly digital drawing, and I continued January’s animal theme with these little studies of foxes. Eleven years ago I had rarely seen a fox in the city, now I see loads, along with bats, squirrels, seagulls and birds of prey – kestrels, red kites and occasionally peregrine falcons. We’reContinue reading “Sketchbook Archives: 39”

Sketchbook Archives: 38
Back to January 2014 for my archives this week, and I did a lot of animal drawings. That’s unusual for me, unless it’s cats and the occasional bird. I don’t normally draw other critters. This was a public drawing event, I like to stick newspapers to walls and draw on them with charcoal. My hairContinue reading “Sketchbook Archives: 38”
Bling, Seagull And Iconic Chair
Day 2 at The Bagpuss Window, the newest arty shenanigans in Swansea’s High Street. Fellow artist Melanie Ezra and I have opened a temporary pop-up artspace in an old shop due for demolition (thanks Coastal Housing group for the loan). The idea of The Bagpuss Window is that we, along with any other artists who dropContinue reading “Bling, Seagull And Iconic Chair”
Popping Up

My latest body of work, a collection of almost 30 pieces called ‘Er Gof’, is being exhibited in Oriel Ceri Richards Gallery and we (the art collective 15 Hundred Lives) have set up a temporary studio upstairs in the cinema foyer/bar.Continue reading “Popping Up”

We hold a monthly 2-day public access art event where we use the space to do our own work and invite one or two guest artists to join us as well. We open our doors toContinue reading “Scribbling In Public”

Cardboard City art trail – it’s my turn!

Window Dressing
I’ve spent a couple of days working with the 15 Hundred Lives art group on a big draw at the Creative Bubble artspace in Swansea’s City Centre. We were joined by a number of artists, art students and members of the public as we drew over cardboard-covered walls. It was a challenge to draw onContinue reading “Window Dressing”
