Looking through my old sketchbooks, here are some random people scribbles from January 2015. I love to sit still and quietly sketch people going about their business, unaware that they’re being drawn.

Sit, Sip, Sketch.
Another little scribble capturing someone reading while they’re having a cuppa at the Waterstones Bookshop café in Swansea. It used to be the old Carlton cinema and it’s a great place to sit, sip and sketch.
Another Random Head In The Bookshop Café
It’s a great place to stop, sip and sketch, the Waterstones Bookshop café in Swansea. It used to be the old Carlton cinema and the café is on the first floor, where the circle was when it was a movie theatre. It’s rather grand, dating from 1914 with huge bowed windows, a glass dome andContinue reading “Another Random Head In The Bookshop Café”
A Random Head In The Bookshop Café

I went up to Elysium for New Year’s Eve with Husb and SIL and had a fab time. I did a bit of scribbling, of course, in pencil into my size A6 Indigo-bound sketchbook, the last of 2025.

The advantage of drawing family is they’re FREE hahaha 😀 These are from December 2014 and January 2015, using a variety of materials, including Faber Castell Pitt drawing pens, graphite, compressed charcoal, and aContinue reading “Family Heads”

Looking back through my sketchbooks to February 2015, I spotted Little Ming aka Ming The Merciless. She was a tiny, fluffy Tortoiseshell with one eye and a giant personality! She was a sweet, delightful, cuddly little cat UNTIL we took her to the vets. She had a red marker on her notes at the vetsContinue reading “#Caturday Archives: 35”

This #Caturday Saturday I’ve gone back almost 11 years to January 2015 and some pen and pencil sketches I made of the late, great Bobbit, a rather curmudgeonly calico cat.
