Here’s another little scribble I did en plein air yesterday, walking around the Waun Wen area of Swansea. I’m doing it for a reason but I can’t say just yet, soon though …. My lovely nephew (in the middle) along with these other wonderful young people have benefitted from the Children In Need charity andContinue reading “More Tiny Scribbling”

Little Scribbles At The Same Time
I went out sketching today, for one hour precisely, at the same time as last week. I’m working on a new art project but I can’t go into any details yet ….. watch this space. I’m making quick little sketches en plein air into a new pocket sketchbook. This will develop into a substantial amountContinue reading “Little Scribbles At The Same Time”
No Life Drawing Tonight
I’m usually at life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop on Thursday nights, but Husb and I are isolating at the moment, waiting for the result of a Covid19 test as we’ve been in close contact with someone who has tested positive. So here’s another couple of little en plein air sketches from my new pocketContinue reading “No Life Drawing Tonight”
More Strolling And Scribbling
Here’s another couple of pages from my recently started pocket sketchbook, strolling the streets, scribbling on Sunday. Ooooh get that alliteration! I’m just walking and looking at the moment, jotting down sketches and notes of anything that catches my interest. Let’s see where this takes me …… My lovely nephew (in the middle) along withContinue reading “More Strolling And Scribbling”
My New Sketchbook
I took my new pocket sketchbook out for it’s first outing yesterday and walked, sketching as I went. I want to get back in the habit of drawing in the street, en plein air. I used to do loads but the Covid19 lockdown put a stop to that. I want to spend some time walkingContinue reading “My New Sketchbook”
Not All Bish Bash Bosh
There are some odd ideas out there about what it is that artists do, how we make a work of art. Many seem to think that we get the materials together and Bish Bash Bosh, there it is on the canvas, or the plinth, or hot off the printing press. But the reality is lotsContinue reading “Not All Bish Bash Bosh”
Scribbling On Zoom
I was at a Zoom meeting this evening and I had a bit of a scribble, with a ballpoint pen onto my lined notepad. Just a quick one to keep my hand in. I like the proportions of the Zoom box, that elongated landscape format. A Chance To Own One Of My Artworks I haveContinue reading “Scribbling On Zoom”
Background Painting
I carried on working on the background in my family zoom quiz painting, putting in the bit of the living room I could see over the upper edge of my laptop. I like it better than my original idea of having the individual ‘boxes’ just hanging in blackness. A Chance To Own One Of MyContinue reading “Background Painting”
I Thought I’d Finished …. I Was Wrong
I decided to do some more work on the big Family Pandemic Zoom Quiz painting I (thought I’d) completed earlier in the year. The original had a plain black border, but in reality the laptop sits on my lap (the clue’s in the name) and I can see part of my living room over theContinue reading “I Thought I’d Finished …. I Was Wrong”
Little World In The Woods
I’ve been on holiday, visiting relatives in the North of England, a lovely break from the pandemic routine and the first time I’ve seen my family in about 18 months – too long but there we go. My littlest relative took me to see his special place in the local woods. He calls it GarlicvilleContinue reading “Little World In The Woods”
