So my first blog entry in over a week. I have been working mainly in various sketchbooks ambling around different ideas. I have not completed any “finished” as it were due to responsibilies outside of my practice – which in […]
Three artists address the crumbling or peeling back of the picture plane through drawing and painting.
I have started a new drawing unit where i will be experimenting with different techniques. so i thought the best way to start the project was to do a drawing in the style i work in and then refer back […]
So, whilst not having an awful lot of time to create drawings I have never taken seriously the importance of taking decent pictures of my work – and how it can change its imapct. Whilst a necessity for having good […]
Whilst working on a drawing today some rather obvious but important points sprung to mind, I realised that it is only through continuous practice that I as an artist can really understand 1. What I love and 2. What I […]
My large cross-stitch pattern is now finished, and I’m looking forward to starting to stitch it. You may remember that it’s inspired by Byzantine Church domes, and so the layout of the design corresponds with a traditional dome, but with […]
Some drawings of skyscrapers i have done following on from some of my photographs. I love using pen and ink in my works especially mixing different techniques together

So the drawing is pushing on, albeit at a painstakingly slow pace, I often wonder now whilst I work why I put myself up for this kind of self inflicted torture whilst peering through a magnifying glass? However, the answer […]
The following post was written on the 15th November but due to an unforeseen event that involved my laptop’s hard drive dying, I wasn’t able to post it on here until now. The reason for the delay also strangely ties […]

Working progress of a practicing artist with an interest in texture, surface and atmosphere.
I’ve been having a bit of a rant (I know! SO unlike me!) And my friend Nicki, mentioned in a previous post said I should blog it. I am no fool. I know she said this just to shut me […]
