I did some sketching at the Saint George in Swansea last Friday eve, where Husb and I had a fantastic time listening to local band “Wild Eyed, Wicked and Oblivious“. Apart from being superb musicians, they are also very snazzy dressers, a little bit Steampunky with a lot of style. I wish I’d had my coloursContinue reading “Snazzy, Stylish and Steampunky.”

#Caturday Silhouette 21: The Hockney Cat.
#Caturday Saturday seems to come around so quickly! This week I put the negative silhouette on top of 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 great artists. ThisContinue reading “#Caturday Silhouette 21: The Hockney Cat.”
The Tea Chest Bassist.
Just back from the Saint George in Swansea, where Husb and I had a fantastic time listening to local band “Wild Eyed, Wicked and Oblivious“. I’m tired now, so I’ll just post the bass player, he has a proper old-fashioned tea-chest bass. Fabulous.

I went through a digital phase starting about 12 years ago, drawing with my Samsung Galaxy Note 8, using a free Markers app. It lasted a while, it was very convenient to carry around and I didn’t get my hands and sketchbook dirty with charcoal and graphite. I remember those leggings well, I wore themContinue reading “Sketchbook Archives: 33”
#Caturday Silhouette 20: Spring Has Sprung
It’s #Caturday Saturday again and this week I stuck the positive silhouette of our little rescue cat, Bill AKA William ChatNoir, onto a window with a blob of BluTack and took a photo of her framed by our garden. Spring has properly sprung and the plants are growing faster than I can keep them underContinue reading “#Caturday Silhouette 20: Spring Has Sprung”

Seaside Scribbles and Rock Chick hair. Back to my sketchbooks of August 2013 and I seem to have spent a lot of time on Swansea beach, must have been a good summer. 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”
#Caturday Silhouette 19: In The Garden
It’s #Caturday Saturday again and this week I stuck the negative silhouette of our little rescue cat, Bill AKA William ChatNoir, onto a window with a blob of BluTack and took a photo of our garden through it.

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.
Sketching In The Park.
Here’s another little sketch from my recent holiday in Yorkshire. Husb and I went for a stroll around Saltaire and stopped for a cuppa – it was unseasonably warm.
Hands And Daffodils.
I haven’t posted on this blog for a few days because Husb and I have been away on holiday, exploring the North of England. We spent a happy few hours in Salts Mill in Saltaire, absorbing the fabulous artwork of David Hockney. There’s also a stunning exhibition of photos by Ian Beesley. We had dinnerContinue reading “Hands And Daffodils.”
