Here’s another sketch I did yesterday when Husb and our little relative were throwing axes at Lumberjack. It was good practice for me to sketch the odd positions that I wouldn’t normally see. There’s some wicked foreshortening going on with that axe arm, took me ages but I got it in the end. It’s definitelyContinue reading “Wicked Foreshortening.”

The Littlest Axe Chucker.
Husb and I took a young relative to our local axe-chucking centre earlier this evening, they chucked axes and I had a scribble. Here he is, he’s at that stage of shooting up and being very skinny. He did pretty well with the axes.

I posted these sketches on my blog through April 2012. It’s nice looking back at these memories; our niece now all grown up, a visit to see the giraffes in Folly Farm, a windy walk on the beach…
After A Chippy Tea.
I went out this evening after an early chippy tea, to a meeting of an arts group I’m a member of. Of course, I had to have a scribble… There was cheese there. I ate some cheese. In fact, I ate a lot of cheese. Not a good idea after a chippy tea. Now I’mContinue reading “After A Chippy Tea.”
#Caturday Saturday.
And for this week’s #Caturday, here’s Sparta Puss in Violet and Orange. She’s been very naughty today, leaned across my lap and licked my ice cream, tried to murder me on the stairs (lurking), pooped on the throw that covers her cushion. So today has been a Naughty Tortie Caturday.
Lovely Jubbly (Fun With Teaching).
I love adult education. So much fun. I was working with a small group this afternoon in a community garden. I demonstrated the effects you can get with some pieces of plants, acrylic paint and Gelli-Plates. By doing a demo, I get to play with the materials too. Lovely Jubbly.
A Pakistan Journey In Print:1
Way back in 2007 I was lucky to travel to Pakistan for a two-week visit with friends from Wales, Denmark and Pakistan. It was a fantastic journey, the country is so geographically and culturally varied, the people kind and friendly. I sketched as I normally do and when I came back to Wales I workedContinue reading “A Pakistan Journey In Print:1”

Here’s a selection of sketches I first posted in March 2012, although they weren’t all drawn then. I began blogging in July 2011 to post my sketchbook drawings, so I was picking out examples going back years. These are drawings en plein air. I seemed to do a lot more back then. I think IContinue reading “Sketchbook Archives: 7”
#Caturday Saturday: The Visitor.
It’s #Caturday and this is a local handsome boi who pops around for a visit every few weeks. He stops by for a chat (he’s very vocal) and receives some snacks before going on his way again. He seems very well cared for, I think he’s just a bit of a wanderer who likes toContinue reading “#Caturday Saturday: The Visitor.”
