Logical Right Eye
And so straight on to the right eye. The same techniques as I used for the left eye. Whereas with watercolours and to a lesser extent inktense...
Artistic Left Eye
It seems the best way to learn how to use oil pastels is to watch videos on YouTube. Today I watched Scrooge The Profit describing the rule of...
A Desert Episode
In that last painting, Six Ways To Look At The Moon, I was so pleased with how the bottom left subpainting turned out that I thought I'd have a go...
Six Ways To Look At The Moon
I'm a bit short of ideas for watercolours at the moment. Maybe I need to wander around the village again but only if I'm prepared to put in some...
JenB, Sitting
It's absolutely roasting outside. I promise never again to claim it's too cold outside to paint. But this weather! Too hot, too sweaty and too...
Gregg Allman
There was no way I was going to stop at Cher, so I moved on to Gregg. I wanted something that would contrast Cher's chiaroscuro against a coloured...
Cher
Before I head back to watercolours tomorrow, I thought I really should give the marker pens a quick go. So I googled for black and white celebrity...
Gabrielle
More inktense figure drawing as promised. This is a new model for me: Gabrielle. For colours today, I used bark, baked earth, leaf green,...
Kristina Marie
It's been raining for a few days and there's a lot of wind predicted for tomorrow morning, so the gazebo's down and I'm not painting in the garden....

Recognition!
Wow! Casey Affleck just shared one of my works on Instagram and he already has over 1500 likes. If you're here after seeing me on Casey's...
Sam Allardyce
I'm still in too much of a rush today. After that Gareth Southgate disaster, I thought I'd move on to Big Sam. At least I know from drawing him...
Gareth Southgate
So the Euros have started and I'll be watching all three games today. That's two good reasons for doing this inknse portrait of Gareth Southgate -...
Pale Horse Rider
OK, so I was in an Allman Betts Band mood today. After painting Devon Allman, I thought I should really also paint Duane Betts. But the best...
Long Gone
I was flicking through one of my Jean Haines books last night for inspiration and decided to do something in her style today. the subject matter...
The Sea Fit
Two paintings in one day and the second is even better than the first. After doing that first painting, it felt too early to be stopping but I...
Jazmine
I've not done my artwork lately. Too busy with a correspondence chess tournament - these things tend to take over your life. But with one game...
Margaret
Inktense pencils are just too much fun to draw with, so here's another. It's a debut for Margaret. I've cropped her so I get no hands or feet. ...
