Shaft Of Spring Sunshine.

I started to carve into my large lino block this afternoon and a shaft of Spring sunshine glowed across the room and onto my work space. The strong shadow made the cutting difficult, but I thought it made a good photo. I’m using a Flexcut gouge and traditional grey, hessian-backed lino.

Drawing Details.

Over the past few days I’ve been carving details of my new Mari Lwyd linocut design into a small piece of lino to see how they work out, so now I’ve started drawing details onto my full size block. There’s a way to go yet though before I start carving…

#Caturday (Plus 1) Silhouette 14: Size Matters!

My laptop finally gave up the ghost a couple of days ago, I’d had it about 10 years and it was geriatric. And now it’s properly dead. So I missed blogging for a couple of days but I now have a new laptop and here’s this week’s #Caturday, a day late but better late thanContinue reading “#Caturday (Plus 1) Silhouette 14: Size Matters!”

#Caturday Silhouette 13

It’s that #Caturday time of the week again and here’s the negative silhouette of our little Bill the rescue cat, overlaid onto a quick pastel sketch I did out and about.

The Last Hat.

The last sketch and last hat from the Imbolc gig. There seems to be a trend for hatted performers at the moment for some reason. This is a fine bit of headgear and thankfully this musician isn’t bearded or bespectacled so he was a bit easier to draw.

Just A Bandana.

I was scribbling at a gig recently and most of the performers had some sort of combination of hats, beards and spectacles, which I find quite hard to draw. But here’s a performer without any of them. But he had a bandana. First time I think I’ve drawn a bandana. But it was ok.

#Caturday Silhouette 12.

This #Caturday Saturday, here the silhouette of little rescue cat Bill on top of a silkscreen print based on sketches of pigeons in Swansea. I merged the drawings with some text I had written about the experience of drawing the pigeons, watching them from the window of Waterstone’s cafe, that used to be the oldContinue reading “#Caturday Silhouette 12.”

#Caturday Silhouette 11.

This #Caturday Saturday, here is my silhouette of little rescue cat Bill on top of a silkscreen print I did a few years back, based on a series of sketches I made of pigeons in Swansea. I like pigeons. I merged the drawings with some text I had written about the experience of drawing theContinue reading “#Caturday Silhouette 11.”

Another Chorister.

Here’s another chorister from the Plygain  I went to last week. It’s a performance of traditional Welsh Christmas carols, sung by Côr Aderyn Du, the Blackbird Choir.
