The other week, I went and had a scribble at the Gwent Boxing Club in Townhill in Swansea. The lads are really, really fast so there was no time to do any detailed drawing, I could only do speed sketching. It was good practice to capture movement as quickly as I could. I could see movements and body shapesContinue reading “Live At The Boxing Club: 3”

Live At The Boxing Club: 2
Just a quick blog post this evening, just got back from a gig at the Patti Pavilion, Warmduscher was headlining. Great vibe, jumped about a bit too much and I’m aching. A nice cup of tea and a couple of paracetamol is what I need now 😀 The speed sketch was done recently at GwentContinue reading “Live At The Boxing Club: 2”
Skipping.
I drew some of the guys at the boxing club as they skipped the other evening. They are SO fast. The skipping ropes were a blur!
From The Ceiling And The Floor.
My first sketch from the boxing club last week, a warm up to get some proportions using continuous line, looking at the punch bags connecting to the ceiling and the floor, before the boxers arrived.
Through A Looking Glass…
I visited a boxing club to draw the other evening. Before the boxers arrived I turned to a large mirror and drew what I could see. I found it easier drawing the image in the mirror than drawing the real world. I used the continuous line technique as the scene is very complicated.

Here’s a snapshot of September 2012, when we spent a lot of time in hospital, visiting elderly relatives. The three at the top were patients in the ward with our relative, and the bottom two show one of our younger family members on a visit.
Live At The Boxing Club: 1
This evening I went and had a scribble at the Gwent Boxing Club in Townhill in Swansea. The lads are lovely and gave me a warm welcome…and a bit of joshing 😀 They’re really, really fast so there was no time to do any detailed drawing, it was speed sketches all the way.
Short Pants, Long Pants.
Husb and I went to a gig at Elysium on Samhain a few days ago, a mixture of performers, folk and metal, with a pagan theme. When I go to gigs, I often draw legs in the audience and I did at this one. Then it occurred to me that everyone was wearing long trousers.Continue reading “Short Pants, Long Pants.”
The Samhain Mask.
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.”
Warming Up At The Gig.
Husb and I were at a gig at Elysium last night, an evening of pagan folk, rock and metal. Lovely. I had a scribble of course. I usually start by doing some quick sketches of the audience to warm up.
