Sketchbook Archives: 54

Going back to February 2015 for these people pictures, mostly drawn in my sketchbooks, although the bottom left is on a piece of vintage paper that I marbled before drawing with charcoal. The sketches on the top left were done in minutes, those at centre left, done in seconds – really speedy. I love lookingContinue reading “Sketchbook Archives: 54”

#Caturday

It’s #Caturday Saturday and here’s a new quick sketch of Sparta Puss, just a couple of minutes so no details of her lovely Tortoiseshell markings. I struggled with her tail, I kept checking but that’s the way it was positioned, looks weird to me on the drawing.

Scribbleheads

Chilling out the other evening, I started scribbling some little imaginary heads into my A6 Indigo-bound sketchbook. I rarely draw from my imagination, but it’s something I want to do more of as it stops me being too precious with what I draw.

Scribbling At Home

Just chilling out yesterday evening and I grabbed my little A6 Indigo-bound sketchbook and did some quick scribbling. Nice. Relaxing. Enjoyed. Sometimes art is very hard for me, most of the time in fact, but now and again it’s a gentle and quiet thing to do.

The Piano Players

Husb and I went to a neighbour’s party a couple of days into the New Year, it was lovely. There was lots of live music and our hostess played the piano with her granddaughter and provided song-sheets for guests to sing along. Great fun. Lots of traditional carols and some rousing classics sung with gustoContinue reading “The Piano Players”

The First Of The New Year

Husb and I popped along to a neighbour’s party a couple of days into the New Year and the Ffynone Mari Lwyd arrived! So I had to have a scribble, didn’t I? She’s a particularly mischievous Mari Lwyd.

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”
