8 Years Ago In Bath ….

I’ve been rummaging through some old sketchbooks and found these drawings from the Fringe Arts Bath (FAB) Festival in 2016, a few years before Covid19. It seems like another world. A small group of us stood in crowded streets in the sunshine and sketched, no knowledge of the impending pandemic that totally changed the wayContinue reading “8 Years Ago In Bath ….”

Rhubarb Rhubarb Rhubarb…

I love growing it. Not so keen on eating it, I like the taste but it really doesn’t like me. It is a laxative. I love cooking with rhubarb though and my garden plants are so prolific that I’ve tried out many recipes. Here’s a drawing I did some years ago and here’s a photoContinue reading “Rhubarb Rhubarb Rhubarb…”

An Eclectic Mix.

Another head of a performer from the Riverside Folk Club a couple of weeks ago. It’s an eclectic mix of music, folk and country, blues and bluegrass, the occasional small choir and even a bit of comedic verse. I drew this with a 2B graphite block into a Khadi sketchbook.

#Caturday Saturday …

Double Trouble for #Caturday. A collage I did of our new-ish rescue kitty, William Chatnoir (Bill for short). Now she’s settled in, got her paws under the table, she’s a little troublemaker. Like the rest of them! Wouldn’t be without her though xxx

FINISHED!

Pulled a couple of long sessions down at Swansea Print Workshop yesterday and this evening to finish these two before the deadline tomorrow – linocut on the left and screenprint on the right. Was supposed to do them last week but had an accident and got concussion! Never mind, all done. Now I need aContinue reading “FINISHED!”

Checking ….

I’m cutting a lot of text, back to front, into traditional grey lino for my latest print. It’s not easy so I regularly use tracing paper to check that I’m doing it right. I put the tracing paper onto the area I want to check and rub it with a block of 2B Graphite soContinue reading “Checking ….”

Deep In Focus.

I was at the Riverside folk club the other evening and scribbled away in my sketch book. This performer was deeply focused, very wrapped up in performing. I used a 2B Koh-i-Noor graphite block into a square Khadi handmade paper sketchbook.

Feisty Folkie With Risqué Rhymes.

This guy was a hoot at the Riverside Folk Club the other evening. No refined refrains for him, straight into some robust renditions of saucy songs.

The Joy Of Drawing!

Sometimes I just want to draw for the sheer joy of it. Some people love to sing, or to run as fast as they can. I love to draw. I was at the Riverside folk club the other evening and scribbled away in my sketch book. I often draw musicians and audiences at music events,Continue reading “The Joy Of Drawing!”
