Self portrait
Distracted from reruns of ‘portrait artist of the year‘ by looking grumpily into the mirror. Get your inspiration where you can.
A bit of perspective
If sketching were a holiday, Urban Sketching would be like like wild camping.
Today, thanks to lockdown I’ve ‘upgraded’ to the 5 star luxury of painting at home. No moving targets, no changing light, warm, comfortable… yet uncomfortably decadent.
Waves & white cliffs
A day at the races
Q: How long does it take an octogenarian to get the vaccine?
A: As long as it takes to do 2 sketches!
Vaccination day at Brighton Racecourse.
Desperate times
Walking while sketching is hard enough when surrounded by sea walls.
But you know you’re addicted if you do it on a cliff edge.
Do not try this! Stay safe. Keep moving. Find sanity where you can.
Rock hard
The women of Brighton and Hove head to the water, whilst the men and seagulls shiver on the shore. Not a wetsuit in sight!
Winter sun
Mizzle to drizzle to rain
Damp and dripped on in Clarence Gardens, Brighton.
Locked in The Lanes
Alice and I have both eaten too much cake and now we can’t escape Tier 4!
Merry Christmas
We’re walking in the air…did somebody spike the turkey?
