Quality Counts

I spent a couple of hours at Swansea Print Workshop yesterday and carried on with the series of small monotypes based on impressionistic drawings of the Punjabi landscape I travelled through earlier this year. The originals were drawn with Daler Rowney artist quality soft oil pastels into a Khadi handmade paper sketchbook. It’s important toContinue reading “Quality Counts”

The Nightmare Foot

Here’s another digital life drawing I did at Swansea Print Workshop this week. I love doing life drawing; I love anatomy and I like to challenge myself with a bit of foreshortening. It’s hard to draw though. That left foot was a nightmare. I used my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 tablet with a free MarkersContinue reading “The Nightmare Foot”

Sleepy Head

Just back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop and here’s a head. The weather has been much colder and stormy the past few days. It was the first time the central heating has been on there since the Spring and our model dozed off. I drew this on my Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8,Continue reading “Sleepy Head”

Thunder And Rodents

Just back from an evening Open Access session at Swansea Print Workshop where I did the third in a series of impressionistic monotype landscapes based on the residency I did in Pakistan earlier this year. This is one of a sequence I drew in a thunderstorm. Had a tough day. Sparta Puss the evil-kitty-from-hell, terrorisedContinue reading “Thunder And Rodents”

What Am I Up To?

Here’s what I’ll be getting up to in October. As well as blogging, of course 😀 What Am I Up To?.

A Body In Space

Here’s another digital study of a female nude I did at this week’s life drawing group at Swansea Print Workshop. It is a quick sketch, about 10 minutes, where I concentrated on siting the body within the space. I used a Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8 with a free Markers app.

A Late Head

Here’s another digital study of a head that I drew at life drawing last night at Swansea Print Workshop. I used my Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8 with a free Markers app. I wanted to blog it yesterday but the Internet has been terrible for the last 24 hours and has just come back.

Stacking

Spent a happy few hours at Swansea Print Workshop this evening, making another small monotype based on one of my pastel landscape drawings from the residency I did in Pakistan earlier this year. I did a series of 49 small drawings very quickly, so they are very impressionistic. This is based on one of theContinue reading “Stacking”

An Older Woman

Here’s another of the digital drawings I did during life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop a couple of evenings ago. I like working with this older woman model. Her face and body have lived life and are so very interesting to study. I prefer to work with older models and male models, to break awayContinue reading “An Older Woman”

Exciting Times

Just back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop with a new digital life drawing done on my Samsung Galaxy with a free Markers app. This is one of our older models whose face and body are full of character built up over a lifetime of experience. It’s quite late and theContinue reading “Exciting Times”
