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.”

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.

Here’s a short film that Husb made of one of my adult teaching sessions at GS Artists in Swansea, part of the 9to90 Community Arts programme, originated and organised by the artist Jane Simpson. It’s a 2 hour session edited down to under 2 minutes.

If you want to come along, it’s free but you’ll need to reserve a place on Eventbrite because spaces are limited – here’s the link. There are lots ofContinue reading “Learning About Cyanotypes…”
Stroll And Scribble: 1
Husb and I went out for a stroll this evening. We used to do it a lot before Covid19 and even during the lockdowns, we took our allocated one hour a day. But after I caught the dreaded lurgi, about 2 years ago, I lost so much stamina and I’m only recently regaining it. IContinue reading “Stroll And Scribble: 1”
Musicians And Europe….
This is the series of musical heads I drew recently at a gig that was held to draw attention to the problems that musicians are now facing because of the UK’s withdrawal from the European Union. This isn’t a comment of the pros and cons of withdrawal, but about how musicians are being affected. WhenContinue reading “Musicians And Europe….”
