 On Saturday I got to be part of a lovely event in Covent Garden, which was brought about by Moleskine  in collaboration with  Urban Sket...

So, it's nearly time to say goodbye to August, and summer, and Hello September. I like September. It feels like a month when changes c...

I made this drawing on the plane home from France a couple of months back. This girl, who I was sitting next to, slept for most of the jou...

I think this was my favourite sketch from last Friday night's Dr. Sketchy. The scaling is all wrong; the hands, for one, are way too s...

Saturday the 14th of July was International Sketchcrawl day and whilst most of the world's sketching population were in Santa Domingo ...

For one reason or another I have found myself spending quite some time in various cafes and tea rooms over the last couple of weeks. It, o...

This is a pretty rotten drawing. I wasn't feeling it from the moment I started it. I just saw this bike, at the Crich 1950s day, and t...

Over the years I've heard many people say that they find starting a new sketchbook the hardest part. They become frozen with the fear...

This has been in one of my sketchbooks for a while. I had no intention of posting it, but with The Stone Roses being all over the news th...

 These are the final couple of drawings from the rock n roll day last weekend. Actually, there's also a motorbike but that might take ...

A couple more from this week's Dr. Sketchy event. In fact, I think I might just dedicate this whole week to lovely ladies and Dr. Sket...

I love Dr. Sketchy . I really do. Last night was another great session at The Greystones in Sheffield. We got to draw some stunning mod...

Here's another from a recent sketchcrawl in Chesterfield. It did not take place at night. It was just that the sketch was looking a bi...

Above is a drawing that I made at an exhibition at Buxton Museum recently. Well, I made part of it there and part at home. Below is a dr...

My poor little blog has been rather neglected of late. I do have a good excuse though; I have been very busy. Last weekend I was exhibitin...

 I'm playing catch up at the moment. Not on the drawing front (I have NOT stopped drawing recently) but on all the other things that g...

Yesterday we were in Buxton for a little sketching and a lot of sitting in a cafe (it seemed). It was a lovely day, despite it being freee...
