    Some new work is coming soon ... so here's a compilation of photos of where I got to yesterday in the studio.

    Being told off

    This shows a work in progress of a macaw I met recently, free roaming in Shropshire! He doesn't like attention and was heading my way, telling me just that. I'm hoping to complete the canvas (30 cm square) tomorrow.

    Cafe society

    I take a sketchbook and fineliners pretty much wherever I go. Little line drawings only take 5 to 10 minutes to complete, and are fun to do.

    Urban Sketching again

    Urban Sketching again

    Urban sketching doesn't have to be black and white, and you can take any approach you want: faithful representation, stylised or simply fun!

    Urban sketching doesn't have to be an outdoor activity. I often draw the interiors of cafes and such like. Any excuse for a cup of tea and a scone!

    Urban Sketching

    Urban Sketching

    I used to think that I just doodled and sketched when I was out and about, but I recently discovered that I am in fact an Urban Sketcher. And Urban Sketching is a thing, a big thing: there is a huge international symposium every year. This year it was in Porto and I was really sorry to have missed it, but am planning to get to next year's in Amsterdam. In the meantime, I have joined an Urban Sketching group in Manchester as well as continuing my usual doodling and sketching.

    A few of my sketchbooks

    A few of my sketchbooks

    I love sketching and doodling - but sketchbooks accumulate and mine were taking up a LOT of space. So yesterday, I decided to sort and tidy them. This is the composite "after" photo of my full, my in-use and my temptingly empty and pristine sketchbooks. Great weather today ... think I'll head out to do some sketching!

    Loving the range of effects possible with Derwent Graphik paint pens, and no better subject than Zuko, my Siberian cat. I wonder what it will look like later ....
