I did some sketching at the Saint George in Swansea last Friday eve, where Husb and I had a great time listening to local band “Wild Eyed, Wicked and Oblivious“. Apart from being superb musicians, they have a snazzy way with hats.

The Accordion Player.
Here’s another quick little scribble from last weekend’s gig with local band “Wild Eyed, Wicked and Oblivious“. When I was little I remember my Nana played an accordion but after she died, back in the 1960s, I never saw one played again for many years, but recently I’ve seen a few coming back into play.
That Darn Guitar!
Husb and I went to a local pub a few days ago to see local band “Wild Eyed, Wicked and Oblivious“. Great gig, thoroughly enjoyed. Of course, I had to have a scribble. I find it very hard to draw guitars, especially when they’re being played and I have to cope with movement and foreshortening. AhContinue reading “That Darn Guitar!”
Snazzy, Stylish and Steampunky.
I did some sketching at the Saint George in Swansea last Friday eve, where Husb and I had a fantastic time listening to local band “Wild Eyed, Wicked and Oblivious“. Apart from being superb musicians, they are also very snazzy dressers, a little bit Steampunky with a lot of style. I wish I’d had my coloursContinue reading “Snazzy, Stylish and Steampunky.”
#Caturday Silhouette 21: The Hockney Cat.
#Caturday Saturday seems to come around so quickly! This week I put the negative silhouette on top of a copy I made of a David Hockney painting during lockdown. The painter Ed Sumner ran a free Friday afternoon art class, The Cheese and Wine Painting Club, throughout Covid, teaching by copying the great artists. ThisContinue reading “#Caturday Silhouette 21: The Hockney Cat.”
The Tea Chest Bassist.
Just back from the Saint George in Swansea, where Husb and I had a fantastic time listening to local band “Wild Eyed, Wicked and Oblivious“. I’m tired now, so I’ll just post the bass player, he has a proper old-fashioned tea-chest bass. Fabulous.
Taking The Line Forward: 1
Here’s what I decided to do with my Birkrigg Common sketch that I posted yesterday (with the Hoad Lighthouse above Ulverston in the background). I did a few of these linear sketches on my recent holiday and I’m working into this one with some watercolour washes. I like blending watercolours directly onto the paper (Khadi). Plenty more toContinue reading “Taking The Line Forward: 1”
Sketchbook Archives: 33
I went through a digital phase starting about 12 years ago, drawing with my Samsung Galaxy Note 8, using a free Markers app. It lasted a while, it was very convenient to carry around and I didn’t get my hands and sketchbook dirty with charcoal and graphite. I remember those leggings well, I wore themContinue reading “Sketchbook Archives: 33”
Starting With Line: 6
Decisions! Decisions! Here’s the other half of my Birkrigg Common sketch that I posted yesterday. This clearly shows the Hoad Lighthouse, that towers above Ulverston, whose name invokes a “wolf warrior”. I did a few of these linear sketches on my recent holiday and now I have to decide what to do with them. ContinueContinue reading “Starting With Line: 6”
Starting With Line: 5
It was a lovely warm and sunny day on Birkrigg Common in the Lake District earlier this month and I sat and I scribbled for a while. I used a Faber Castell Pitt pen into my Khadi Landscape sketchbook. On the upper right of the drawing is the Hoad Lighthouse, a famous landmark around theseContinue reading “Starting With Line: 5”
