It's nice that you thought of that, Xmas can be a lonely time of year for some people. I believe a present such as you describe would be like a ray of hope in a landscape of desolation. more…

Thank you, that's a lovely idea :) And logical... if I would want what ever I make... it's possible someone else will!

The book is wonderful! I've not even finished reading it and I keep dipping into bits I've already read to re-read them! It's fantastic especially for when you are feeling down as it's so possitive. more…

I like the Kettle shot. Though those kitchen tiles will have to go! I saw an SRL show in America a few years ago. Complete and utter mayhem. The Swiss (I think) artist behind the robot building seemed to have a least one limb missing and seemed likely to lose more at any time. Are you planning to put your photos / contact strips up on line? more…

good evening how's your day been?

I have one thought, (which works for me, so, apologies if it sounds crazy!), but if you are stuck for a title...I just switch-off...then go back to it, suddenly, and chose the first word or thought(s) that you get from the image...it comes up with some interesting ideas.
Anyway, just an idea!!

Well, look on the bright side, it is called ONE of those days, so in one hour it'll be out of the way.
BTW, I got a photo of the full moon here in Norwich which has a terrific halo tonight...fabulous sky.
And further to your question, I have some artwok on my blog, buried there s/w!...the last one was yesterday. I always use black ink, more…

hi, thanks for the luck :) at the moment I feel like I'll be needing it!

Your drawing sounds very interesting, I was just looking at your blog to see if there was any posted, I didn't see any drawings but I didn't look through all the pages. Do you have any posted?

It is difficult to post things like drawings as I don't ha more…

hi, good moring...firstly I wish you good luck for the A-level!
It's nice to hear about your drawing...I love drawing, and did a very great deal before, but less this year unfortunately.
I love using the thinnest ink, particularly oriental subjects. I like buildings and nature the best, and also geisha.

Maybe you can post s more…

hi lauren,
Mostly at the moment I'm taking photographs and just drawing stuff to go in my sketchbook for the A level. The kind of drawing I like to do is still life things made very large. Also graphic images made from nature scenes.

What kind of drawing /sketching do you do? more…
