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”

#Caturday Archives: 20
Here’s an oldie, a woodcut print of Sparta Puss when she was a kitten climbing my net curtain! The little minx 😀 I think this was from about 2011.
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!
Writhing Strokes…
I am lucky to do quite a bit of teaching in Community Arts and I worked with a lovely group at Swansea’s GS Artists last week, teaching how to paint an imaginary landscape inspired by Vincent van Gogh. In two hours! 😀 We used canvas boards, acrylic paints and palette knives. This is a smallContinue reading “Writhing Strokes…”
#Caturday
It’s #Caturday Saturday again and here’s my silhouette of Little Bill looking at a copy I did of van Gogh’s painting of his bedroom at Arles. Throughout the Covid lockdown, I spent my Friday lunchtimes on Facebook, joining in with the artist Ed Sumner, who ran the Cheese and Wine Paint Club. He did 72Continue reading “#Caturday”

Some of my output from November 2013, when I routinely pasted brown parcel paper into my sketchbooks, I liked the way that the random shapes interacted with the line drawings.
#Caturday Silhouette: 22
It’s #Caturday Saturday once again and this week I put the positive silhouette of little Bill, our elderly rescue cat, onto a copy I made of a David Hockney painting during lockdown. The painter Ed Sumner ran a free Friday afternoon art class, The Cheese and Wine Painting Club, throughout Covid, teaching by copying the greatContinue reading “#Caturday Silhouette: 22”
A Way With Hats.
I did some sketching at the Saint George in Swansea last Friday eve, where Husb and I had a great time listening to local band “Wild Eyed, Wicked and Oblivious“. Apart from being superb musicians, they have a snazzy way with hats.
The Accordion Player.
Here’s another quick little scribble from last weekend’s gig with local band “Wild Eyed, Wicked and Oblivious“. When I was little I remember my Nana played an accordion but after she died, back in the 1960s, I never saw one played again for many years, but recently I’ve seen a few coming back into play.
That Darn Guitar!
Husb and I went to a local pub a few days ago to see local band “Wild Eyed, Wicked and Oblivious“. Great gig, thoroughly enjoyed. Of course, I had to have a scribble. I find it very hard to draw guitars, especially when they’re being played and I have to cope with movement and foreshortening. AhContinue reading “That Darn Guitar!”
