Let The Train Take The Strain.

One of my Mari Lwyd linocuts (detail below) features in the current exhibition at the Queen Street Gallery in Neath. The gallery is lovely and Neath is a great little town with a good market, an ancient standing stone, a Roman fort, a Medieval castle, and some tasty eateries. The Gallery is just a fewContinue reading “Let The Train Take The Strain.”

Sketchbook Archives: 36 – Just Sitting

Some more scribbles from my sketchbooks, this time from December 2013 when I seemed to be sitting in a lot of places with other people just sitting.

Out Gallivanting – Again

Husb and I were gallivanting again last evening. That’s a great word, my Nana and her generation would use it all the time, but it seems to have fallen out of use. I think it’s time it came back. Anyway, we were out gallivanting at a gig, so I had to have a scribble, didn’tContinue reading “Out Gallivanting – Again”

Sketchbook Archives: 35 – Ankle Biters!!!

Here are some Golden Oldies from my sketchbooks in December 2013, I seem to have drawn a lot of rug rats and ankle-biters! I must have been to some family birthday parties, there were a lot of small sprogs in the family 12 years ago!

I remember those leggings well, I wore themContinue reading “Sketchbook Archives: 33”

I had a long, shaggy, rock chick hairdo at the time. I really like my hair like that, but it’s a bit ofContinue reading “Sketchbook Archives: 32”

A few more sketches from my “brown paper phase” back in July 2013. It’s ordinary brown wrapping paper stuck into sketchbooks with Pritt stick glue. I should do it again, it’s very effective. Fortes is an ice cream parlour in Limeslade, west Swansea, one of the Welsh Italian ice-cream families.

Smiles And Scribbles.

Here’s the last of the sketches I made last weekend at the Omnichron gig, a happy audience. It’s nice drawing a group as I can get to practice scale with the different figures there.

Heads, Hand and Feet, a selection of sketchbook drawings from way back in July 2013, back before Covid19, remember those days? I went through a phase of sticking brown wrapping paper into my sketchbooks and drawing over it. I can’t remember why I stopped, I really like it. I’m not so keen on drawing ontoContinue reading “Sketchbook Archives: 30”
