These are the first two scribbles I did in my sketchbook on Samhain / Halloween. I should have posted them first, I guess, not last. It takes a while to warm up so I usually do a couple of very quick ones at the start of a session.

Halloween sketching
I managed to get a fair few scribbles last weekend on Samhain / Halloween at the Elysium gig, in between headbanging and interesting conversations. The line-up featured Root Zero, Grindhorse 83, Pyrogaric and headliners Adfeilion. I bought a vinyl album by Adfeilion and have been listening to it, it’s fab.
More Samhain Scribbles.
More from the gig on Samhain at Elysium. The headline band, Adfeilion played a very atmospheric set.

Then it occurred to me that everyone was wearing long trousers.Continue reading “Short Pants, Long Pants.”

Husb and I went to a fab gig at Elysium last Friday. It was Samhain and we listened to a great line up of pagan-ish music. This guitarist with the most excellent band Adfeilion was wearing a terrific, and terrifying, animal skull mask. Of course I had to have a scribble. Adfeilion is a youngContinue reading “The Samhain Mask.”
OOH! AAH! Fireworks!
Bonfire night! Husb and I went to the municipal firework display this evening. It was fantastic! Best one I’ve seen. Kudos to Swansea Council – a grand job. When it finished we crossed the road to the beach for the feral fireworks; thousands of teens and twenty-somethings packed onto the beach lighting bonfires and settingContinue reading “OOH! AAH! Fireworks!”
