We’re at that time of year when the old Welsh tradition of The Mari Lwyd / Y Fari Lwyd, is awakening from her slumbers ready for her night, Hen Galan, on January 13th – the New Year in the old Gregorian Calendar. This monotype with chine collé is based on a sketch I did when the Ystrad MariContinue reading “A Month Of Maris #10”

A Month Of Maris #7.
And another little Mari Lwyd, this time a linocut which became little Xmas cards two years ago.
Playing with The Mari #1.
I’ve been playing with my latest Mari Lwyd drawing in Adobe Photoshop, using the Gradient Map function. It’s fun and chilled, there’s no pressure.
And The Mari Came Too.
There were lots of performers at the Riverside Folk Club last week, mostly human. But suddenly The Mari Lwyd arrived, wreaking havoc and mischief across the room. Of course, I had to scribble her.
Another Quickie From The Folk Club.
Another little sketch from the Riverside Folk Club last week. I used ink drawing pens and I made a mistake drawing his hand so I filled in his jumper with Nitram charcoal to cover it up. Cheating or creative license? 😀
More From The Folk Club.
Husb sings in a local community choir, Aderyn Du Brynmill Blackbirds, and they gave a short performance of Medieval Christmas Carols at the Riverside Folk Club in Loughor earlier this week. I tagged along and of course, I had to have a scribble. Here are two of the performers that I caught with my drawing pens.

The GVAG’s Friends.
Husb and I went to the Annual General Meeting of the Friends of the Glynn Vivian Art Gallery a few days ago. Of course, I had to have a scribble…..
Stripy Shiny Skull
Here’s my Mari Lwyd linocut for this year. I cut the block a couple of weeks ago and did some proof prints at the 9-to-90 Creative Community to demonstrate the chine collé technique. But I wanted something different, rather than the usual tissue papers, for this year’s annual print. I went to the latest exhibitionContinue reading “Stripy Shiny Skull”
Having A Bit Of Fun.
Art is often seen as highbrow and serious but art is also fun and Husb and I had a great time this evening at GS Artist’s opening event for this year’s 9to90 Creative Community Annual Show – and collage session. Swansea artist Rachael Barry provided the inspiration to chill out and have a good timeContinue reading “Having A Bit Of Fun.”
