It’s spring and the umbrellas are out again!, pen and ink and acrylic paint maker, 16 September 2014
In the final weeks before my show I’ve been drawing, but haven’t had time to post. In the main I’ve been taking my cafe breaks (and even fitting in the gym!) so I don’t injure myself with all the repetitive stitching that goes into my exhibition work. So here they are, several more weeks of cafe drawings.

Back at Biginelli’s and drawing faster, just like Jo suggested!

A not so quick drawing, mixing blind drawing and a more ‘observational’ approach.
The Italian Bakery, pen and ink, 20 September 2014
I’m still working on drawing people. Strangely, to me at least, getting a rough idea of the hairstyle seems to help with the drawing.

Finished at last, a celebratory coffee with a passionfruit and polenta cake!

I like the animated chairs at Biginelli’s on the middle. Remind me of the short story about the furniture walking out of a house, now who wrote that?

I’ve not heard of that story, but Rosie Scribbler is currently visiting lots of Welsh standing stones, many of whom are reputed to walk around at certain times.
