Cochyn / Redhead.

Husb and I went to a Seed Talk called “The Science of Psychedelics” by Dr. David Luke at Swansea University yesterday evening. There was a woman in the row in front of me with the most amazing red hair, Cochyn in Welsh, so of course I had to have a scribble. I used my (relatively)Continue reading “Cochyn / Redhead.”

Today I Made A Cake….

A classic jam and buttercream sponge. With homemade bramble jelly (foraged locally) and real buttercream. The sponge has a hint of vanilla because I embed vanilla pods into my caster sugar jar. It will be going to Husb’s Life Drawing group tomorrow.

One From The Archives: Bannau Brycheiniog.

Here’s a scribble from an old sketchbook, a walk on Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) on a sunny but misty afternoon about 8 years ago. I used a range of grey pastels mostly on their side into a black ringbound sketchbook.

Here’s the second piece I made on my training course with the most excellent glass artist Lisa Burkl the other day. Step 1: Paint a design onto the outside of a clean glass bowl with acrylic pens and paints. Leave it to dry. Step 2: Cover the painted area thinly with glue (it’s a specialContinue reading “Gilding Again.”

#Caturday – Quickly Drawn Cats

Inspiration, Inspiration, Inspiration…

I learnt a new technique today, from inspirational glass artist, Lisa Burkl. It’s gilding onto glass and then drawing into it. I’d never realised this method would suit drawing so much. I’ve been doing a lot of artwork recently about the inspirational South Wales Miner’s Wives of 1984-1985, so I continued that topic here. IContinue reading “Inspiration, Inspiration, Inspiration…”

Looking Again…

I did these lino prints a few years back. I was playing with some vinyl, a cheap alternative to lino, cutting random shapes and then printing and overprinting in Process Yellow, Magenta and Cyan to see what happened. I didn’t much like them at the time but now I’ve been looking through my archives, IContinue reading “Looking Again…”

Springtime In The Garden…

We’ve had a couple of fine Spring days so I jumped at the chance to get into the garden and do some tidying up. It’s joyous being there. It’s only a little city-centre patch but Husb and I have crammed as much as we can into it. My seasonal favourites are the Hellebores, Primulas andContinue reading “Springtime In The Garden…”
