It’s #Caturday Saturday again and this week I stuck the positive silhouette of our little rescue cat, Bill AKA William ChatNoir, onto a window with a blob of BluTack and took a photo of her framed by our garden. Spring has properly sprung and the plants are growing faster than I can keep them underContinue reading “#Caturday Silhouette 20: Spring Has Sprung”

Seaside Scribbles and Rock Chick hair. Back to my sketchbooks of August 2013 and I seem to have spent a lot of time on Swansea beach, must have been a good summer. I had a long, shaggy, rock chick hairdo at the time. I really like my hair like that, but it’s a bit ofContinue reading “Sketchbook Archives: 32”

This is the “other” side of the drawing I posted yesterday, from my Landscape Khadi sketchbook. I like drawing right across the double page to get a panoramic view. I’ll be using watercolours on this – when I find the time! This is somewhere in the Lake District, up a mountain, I can’t be moreContinue reading “Starting With Line: 4”
Starting With Line: 3
Here’s another line drawing I did en plein air in the Lake District recently. Husb and I went up for a few days to see family and get out and do some walking and sketching. This is somewhere on the top of the Lake District, I’ve no idea where! Just liked the look of itContinue reading “Starting With Line: 3”

A few more sketches from my “brown paper phase” back in July 2013. It’s ordinary brown wrapping paper stuck into sketchbooks with Pritt stick glue. I should do it again, it’s very effective. Fortes is an ice cream parlour in Limeslade, west Swansea, one of the Welsh Italian ice-cream families.

Here’s the second part of my line drawing of the Giant’s Grave standing stones at Kirkstanton in Cumbria, done in the field en plein air into my Khadi landscape sketchbook. I like to sketch across the double page as it gives me a panoramic view, which is interesting to draw. When I’ve got a bit of time,Continue reading “Starting With Line: 2”
Starting With Line: 1
I did a series of pen line sketches while Husb and I were away in Yorkshire and Cumbria recently. They were fairly quick to do and I intend on working into them with ink or watercolour washes over the next week. Here’s one at the beginning of it’s artistic journey. It’s the Giant’s Grave standingContinue reading “Starting With Line: 1”
From The Hide…
Husb and I had a few days away in the north of England, splitting out visit between West Yorkshire and Cumbria. I managed to so some sketching as well as some fairly strenuous walking, historic sight-seeing and visits to friends and relatives. This is a sketch I made in pen (Faber Castell Pitt) and InktenseContinue reading “From The Hide…”
On Ilkley Moor…
Here’s a quick sketch I made on Ilkley Moor when Husb and I had a few days away in Yorkshire recently. We walked to see The Badger Stone and I sat and sketched with my Derwent Inktense blocks and some water reservoir pens.
