Still tearing through the players at the 2020 FIDE Candidates tournament, starting today with Alexander "Sasha" Grischuk. He's drawn all seven of...
Portraits
Wang Hao
My last chess portrait for the day. I really should have stopped at two. This portrait is instantly recognisable as my work but not so instantly...
Ian Nepomniachtchi
Next up is joint tournament leader Ian Nepomniachtchi, generally referred to as Nepo, although I don't know whether people call him that to his...
Kirill Alekseenko
Being stuck inside all day, I don't see much hope for doing many watercolours for a while. And with me actually having a piece of work on a the...
Henry Fonda, Once Upon A Time In The West

Father And Son
That review of Drawing On The Right Side Of The Brain is coming soon, I promise!
Career Woman
