Cathy Jean
Back to the inktense pencils and figure drawing. All these different artistic styles and media are like spinning plates and if I don't keep...
Led Zeppelin
And here's the complete Led Zep collection. The four drawings are all in different styles but work well as a set. Four different colour...
John Paul Jones

Roy With A Beard
It's Tuesday and Sky Portrait Artist Of The Year is on later, so I was in the mood for a bit of portraiture. Obviously using markers. I'm nowhere...
