Recent work

Though the lock-down and Coronavirus has restricted my speaking role in schools, universities etc.  I have remained busy art-wise.  I sketch every day.  25 of my recent sketches are now published in my latest book, 'Lock-down Sketchbook', and depending on interest, I have lots of work waiting for future books and other offerings, maybe blank cards etc.

I have a love for teddy bears, in particular, 'Charlie Bears', and I sketch them from time to time. 

A look back at some of the school shoes I owned way back, when I was in my early teens, (even earlier than that).  I remember them well. 

NEW BOOK NOW AVAILABLE

Hope you are all fine in this difficult time.  I have stayed busy in lock-down, as all my usual work has ended due to the pandemic.  I have produced a short, (24 page) Lock-down Sketchbook, which is now on sale via the attached link.  It contains 25 sketches carried out over the lock-down, and I have left some blank space throughout the book for you to record your own sketches or words around this trying time.  Stay safe everyone.

Frustrated

I am still waiting to get my laptop back.  It's been away since October, with just a few weeks of having it back, then off again with another problem.  I can't wait to be back on Blogger and Facebook, sharing some of my art, and new directions I'm exploring.
I wonder if anyone will be out there and interested!  Maybe not.

sketching from old photos

I have a love of searching through old photos of places I know in times gone by.  That's what I've been doing over the past few weeks.  Here are some of them.

Beach houses Red Wharf Bay, on Anglesey around 1880

Penysarn 1800's

Colwyn Bay pier entrance. One half of the entrance.

Deganwy shore

St. Asaph, The Plough and post office.

Very early picture of St. Asaph

Charles and his mules, Meifod. (is the caption on the photo)

Crossing stones, Llansannon.

Llangar Church. Corwen North Wales

A lovely photograph of this ancient church, taken and posted by https://www.facebook.com/gillian.smith.182940?fref=hovercard, really took my eye. In this coloured sketch, I have tried to capture the spiritual atmosphere of the site.
