Husb and I went to a friend’s birthday recently and there were lots of kids running around having a great time with balloons. No fancy gadgets or electronics or expensive toys, just ordinary balloons. This little one has such skinny legs, like a bambi.

#StandingStoneSunday 11.
It’s #StandingStoneSunday again on social media and here’s one in Swansea, in a suburb called Bonymaen. You can read more about it here. I drew it on my adventures with pre-historian Dewi Bowen and filmmaker Melvyn Williams a few years back, in the days before the Covid lockdown. All the megaliths on our travels are connectedContinue reading “#StandingStoneSunday 11.”
#Caturday Archives 11.
It’s Saturday #Caturday again and here are some kitty drawings from my sketchbook archives. Sparta Puss was dozing on top of the boiler in the kitchen in front of the window. It’s Spring and the amelanchier tree in the background is blooming and the washing is being dried with solar power.

It’s #StandingStoneSunday once again and here’s another fine monument I drew on my adventures with pre-historian Dewi Bowen and filmmaker Melvyn Williams. It’s called Ty’n Y Selar and it’s near the M4 motorway. There are a few different ways of spelling it in Cymru, it’s Samson’s Stone in English, here’s a link about it.

It’s Saturday #Caturday again and here are some kitty drawings from my sketchbook archives. Sparta Puss was sleeping on my lap so I did a few quick sketches of her, all on the same page, trying to capture the essence of her cattitude rather than doing a detailed drawing. I like the way the scribblesContinue reading “#Caturday Archives 10”
Balloons!
Went to a birthday party over the weekend and scribbled some kids playing with balloons. No X Boxes, no smart phones, no expensive toys. Just some balloons. What joy. They move fast, kids do, so it was good practice to sketch them.
Hanging In The Hangar.
I drew these characters the other night, when Husb and I went to Hangar 18 at the weekend to see an alien band called Henge. I like sketching in public, drawing people in their wild state 😀
The Cosmic Alien.
Husb and I went to Hangar 18 at the weekend to see an alien band called Henge. They were brilliant – sort of cosmic psychedelic high energy rave-rock with a big dollop of humour. I did a scribble of the lead singer. I’m loving getting back to going to gigs, I realise how much IContinue reading “The Cosmic Alien.”

It’s #StandingStoneSunday again and here’s another of the glorious monuments I drew while I was out and about with pre-historian Dewi Bowen and film maker Melvyn Williams, hunting Welsh megaliths. This day, we stayed close to home and started out by visiting the local Dylan Thomas comprehensive school, where there is a fine Bronze Age standingContinue reading “#StandingStoneSunday 9”
#Caturday Archives 9
It’s Saturday / Caturday again and here’s one from my kitty archives. One day Sparta Puss stayed still long enough for me to do quite a detailed drawing of her, perched on top of our vintage glass display cabinet that we found in the street one day. Not sure if it’s a 1930s one orContinue reading “#Caturday Archives 9”
