Iam always mesmerised by the print of the great wave by Hokusai, it is stunning, I just had to recreate it, it is so much more detailed and time consuming than it first seems, but loved having a go at. I know there are no boats, I didn’t want them, just sky sea and land!
Trying a mixture of pencils and gel pens. Just highlighting a couple of things. Showing a mixture of not knowing what is actually there in the eye of the beholder.
Four quick self-portraits, also show-casing my quarantine haircut. I did them yesterday as a part of Leith of School of Art’s Wake up and Draw challenge. The instructions were to do Van Gogh style drawings using the short very lively lines he is renowned for. The main image was 15 minutes on A3, the other three 5 mins each on A4. The images are in ascending order, so the first one should be at the bottom and the last one as the featured image.
Men fall victim to domestic violence as well. ManKind organised a fundraiser last night for victims of domestic violence in Scotland with over 30 models striking short poses. This includes the ones towards the end. Brush pen on A3.
7/10 U2, Achtung Baby.
I was challenged to choose 10 music albums that defined my musical buds and I decided to draw them, in no particular order.
This one is my sister's fault.

One of my favorite Mammals, the Pangolin. Like a mix between an Armadillo and an Anteater with a prehensile tail. Yes, they do actually exist. :P (it's done in pencil, and I just added a green filter to it to liven it up)
I entered this one in the pre/post quarrantine challenge but it is part of my new journal. which will be full of flowers and flower quotations. Using Derwent inktense pencils.
Just came out of a sudden fever and i had a dream of this beauty as i healed. Hope all of us will come back strong like this beast once this pandemic is over.
4/10 AC/DC Live album
I was challenged to choose 10 music albums that defined my musical buds and I decided to draw them, in no particular order. For a moment in time I was obsessed with this album. Still one of my favourites of all time.
