I'll be on duty from 1 -4 on Thursday 1st October if you'd like to come and say Hello! 😊

Quaintly British, in the centre of Ellesmere, is now stocking these fridge magnets with my iconic urban sketch images of Ellesmere! Postcards soon to follow too! Ideal as small gifts for friends and family.

Apparently, they are selling well with tourists visiting Ellesmere who would like a small keepsake of where they have been. It's rather nice to think that my artwork will somehow be travelling across the country, and maybe even further! Who knows! 🤔😊

One week to go until the Shropshire Art Society autumn exhibition at the Bear Steps gallery in the middle of Shrewsbury! I'll be exhibiting three urban sketches of Shrewsbury there, in watercolour and pen.

Sketching at Shrewsbury Folk Festival, trying to capture the atmosphere of the different venues whilst listening to good music! My black stabilo pen ran out after the sketch of the outdoor Severn stage so I completed the last one of the Pengwern stage with a grey pen, which wasn't capable of creating the stark contrast I was looking for. But considering the pen work was done more-or-less in the dark it's not too bad!!

A lovely day out sketching at Dudmaston Hall near Bridgnorth with the Shropshire Art Society sketch club. First a pen and water sketch of a side aspect of the hall and then I dodged the raindrops, sitting under an enormous yew tree, practicing my greens and trees for part of the gardens with my watercolours. All in all a happy day! 😊
