Travelling is half the fun

The picture below was taken at Cologne Station en route to Berlin. It’s Cologne Cathedral taken through the station roof. The German trains are lovely and the train food is fantastic. I’m in Germany on an artist residency with three other Welsh women artists, Chris Bird-Jones, Sarah Hopkins and Rhiannon Rees with support from WalesContinue reading “Travelling is half the fun”

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.
