Spring!

Took a quick shot of a daffodil as I’m just waiting for some paint to dry on my mothers day gift on a perfect early spring day.

IF. Legendary

A legendary appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show in ’56, seen by nearly 60 million people and a legend was born…even if it was only from the waist up!


I’m not a fan but found myself drawn to the image of Elvis, as contemporary legendary figures go he’s pretty hard to ignore.

IF. Intricate

This is an pen sketch I did just after I’d left work. I was feeling the need to draw something as I hadn’t sat and drawn anything like this since collage in the early 80’s.

IF. Intricate

…more by default than by design?

Whilst away on her trip to Canada, Linsey and her colleagues went ice skating. She tells me she was a natural, performing intricate, pre-determined moves with consummate ease…I have my doubts.

IF. Intricate

Got the word for the week. The tub cocktail sticks I’d used to do the dots on ‘Breezy 2’ were sitting in front of me so I snapped some quick shots. I thought from above they looked fairly intricate.

IF. Breezy 2

BRIGHT AND BREEZY
This was another image I had in mind for breezy and with a little time on my hands I thought I’d dig out the acrylics (which I don’t do as often as I should) and get it down.



Style wise it’s an homage to James Caraway who’s illustrations are always an inspiration.
