Finding a Cool Spot
The weather is meant to change overnight and I can’t wait. I didn’t even bother with going in the studio today, and just grabbed a sketchbook, neocolor IIs and some fineliners and worked in the coolest room in the house. I worked in my A5 spiralbound sketchbook, which is quite random inside. I filled a…

Art Journal Progress
I have this A5 journal that I have been playing with for months. The project started with sessions of random mark-making, stencilling, stamping, scribbling, and whatever came to hand, until every page was no longer blank.

Lurcher Lodger
100 Day Project Day 20 I have a doggie pal lodging for the weekend, which is food for the soul. He’s a bit of an old man, so I will probably be lodged downstairs on the couch keeping him company. That’s what I did this afternoon, and I took a sketchbook and a limited selection…
