View of Seaton Carew Beach and Hartlepool from North Gare Beach. Sand dunes at North Gare Beach. Last Sunday I had made very sensible, serious adult plans that involved going to the ‘toon to go to the bank, and while I was there seeing an art exhibition. This coincided with the fake spring we had. […]

Blackhall rocks again
Guess where I’ve been on a Sunday? It was two weeks ago but I’ve been revising for an exam so painting sadly had to take a back seat. We perched on the cliff tops as we were both tired and couldn’t face the thought of hauling all our stuff up the cliff path. We pitched […]

Mask. Reference from Letzteschatten-stock. Well I think the month has helped me get better at drawing, and noses, but I still need to work on drawing smoke. This photos a bit lighter than the original as it was to dark, but I didn’t really notice until now as I was galloping out the door to […]

Found. A tenuous link to the theme but I fell in love with this stock image by Chirinstock, that turned up when I searched for ‘found’ because she found the leaves to put in her hair. I went to dark to fast on the background, and I was aiming for more expressive hatching, but overall […]

United Overall happy with this one. Was heavy handed with the shading on the cheeks, so they look like hairy tears, I think a more expressive line might work better for when I don’t have a chance to hatch the whole piece out. Reference from Senshistock. I used my kuru toga mechanical pencil, sailor fude […]

Climb To get to the top you’ve got to climb. Very quickly done with my sailor 40 degree fude pen and carbon ink. Reference is from: Anettfrozen Squeak If you’ve read the Discworld novels, you’ll know. This is the death of rats, and even if the rat catcher doesn’t believe in reincarnation, reincarnation believes in […]

Ship. I used to read epic fantasy when I was a kid, I had read all the kids books in the library and then over on to epic fantasy (and the discworld) I read a series called Live Ships, where the figure heads could talk, navigate and fight back against invaders. Half way through sticking […]
Sketching
In an effort to improve my people drawing I did some sketching when attending an Art Fund lecture on country houses. I can’t remember the name of the lecturer, but he was very good. It was about how country houses and castles are functionally different, but they did overlap. In exploring this it highlighted how […]
Sketching on the go!
I’ve just been away to London for three days and I took some sketching implements with me. As a follower of Liz Steel, Teoh Yi Chie and Path Southern Pierce (warning, you’ll walk away with a new foundation pen and a portable palette) I gathered up my materials and decided i would make use of the train ride down to […]
