My plan today was to give the potters' pink a good workout and, in particular, to use some of the more interesting mixes it makes with some of the ...

Planet Of The Apes (TV Series) Series
These three look pretty good together. We have: Galen, in Artgraf Urko in crystalline watercolour Doctor Zaius in watercolour All...
Doctor Zaius
It was always going to happen. Today's subject is Doctor Zaius from the Planet Of The Apes TV series, played by Booth Colman. After painting Galen...
Urko
A late start today, not been for my walk yet, thinking ahead to the England game and a bit obsessive about not wanting a day away from reading...
Galen
Time for an Artgraf painting today. There's a portrait that I did of Duane Allman two years go today where I wondered whether I should have stopped...
The Cage
Not a long afternoon for me today, so I went for a quick portrait with the crystalline watercolours. The subject today is Susan Oliver playing...
This Is Not My Sandwich
I've not done enough portraits lately and thought I'd work my way back in gently with the crystalline watercolours. This is Catherine Tate as the...
Yes, And They Say We’re Gonna Have To Pay What’s Owed
So here's azo orange's debut painting. I went for a triple painting as I wanted to see how the orange would work with the cerulean blue and a...
Paint The Whole World With A Rainbow
It was only a matter of time before I did a posterised painting of the Rainbow crew using the trippy colour scheme. And yesterday Steve on...
Sir Roger Moore
I thought I'd have another go at Sir Roger Moore today. He's one of a number of people that I feel I owe a portrait after having had a go once and...
Spectre Of The Gun

Eric Morecambe
It's a portrait of Eric Morecambe today in crystalline watercolours. I put down a pencil drawing last night, dividing Eric up into highlights, mid...
The Enterprise Crew
And here's the complete collection. Lined up in Sudoku formation with one red, one blue and one green/yellow shirt in each column and in each...
Chekov
And finally, completing the set we have Mr Chekov, played by Walter Koenig. I can tell it¡s him; there's a chubby, baby-faced quality to him. But...
Uhura
Next up in the Enterprise crew is Uhura, played by Nichelle Nichols. Only two more to go now. The likeness still isn't perfect. I'm starting...
Scott
Back to the enterprise crew again and, with two blues, two yellow/greens and one red shirt to date, it's time for another red shirt. This is Mr...
Stephen Mangan
Yesterday's watercolour painting was a huge success and I've learned through experience that the best way to follow up a win like that is not to...
McCoy
Only time for one portrait today after that book review and it's my first ever go at Doctor McCoy, played by DeForest Kelley. It's him but it's...
Kirk
Number 4 in the collection is Captain Kirk, played by William Shatner. Bill joins Gregg Allman, Warren Haynes, Big Sam Allardyce and me in the...
Rand
I realised last night that the nine in this collection will comprise three each of red shirts, blue shirts and green shirts. So that makes my...
