Liverpool

Sketches from our day out in Liverpool, I didn't have time for sketching or a camera so I wanted something to remember it by. Drawn from internet photos, but views I saw! My favourite parts were the stained glass so this will appear soon with watercolour. We climbed to the top of the cathedral tower (well part of it has a lift!!) 100m high (331 feet). Well worth it for the view.

EDM #172 Something that Sparkles (and EDM #166 Fish)


Drawn a while ago, 2 of our Swordtail fish! Unfortunately the male died, but not until we had a total of 16 fish from initially only 4! They have sparkley scales.

Moving House

Inspired by various friends moving house, a doodle in ink coloured on PC.

All the tea in China

This is a slightly strange concept I know... the concept was drawn in a (very boring!) Project Management lecture where the lecturer was talking about the difference between quality and fitness for purpose. He used the example that you wouldn't put china tea cups in a vending machine. This just had to be drawn.

Journey

This was based on an idea I had a couple of years back, I wanted to try and give a sense of travelling. Straight in ink (no pencil - quite scary for me!) and mostly on a train!!

Back Again and EDM #160

I can't belive its been over 2 months since last posting. I've had so much uni work to do I haven't had the time to post, and I haven't drawn as much as I'd have liked. I have missed it loads and have made the resolution to do a quick sketch every day to help me get through the last bits of coursework then exams! So I'm posting 3 drawings now that I did over the last couple of months, then hopefully more will be posted regularly!

This is from quite a while back, the first big sailing race I did. We'd only had the boat 2 weeks and it was a bit big for me, but I enjoyed it! Every time I rounded the clubhouse buoy I got shouts of "come on you gardners!" as I had leaves everywhere from capsizing into a tree....

Welcome

This is a creative outlet for me, somewhere I can put some of my artwork for myself and others to see. Please feel free to leave comments, I love to hear them!
