Small biro sketch prints

18/12/2015

6 Comments

 
Finished framing a few small biro sketch prints, ready for my last day in the 59 Lime Street Studio Gallery, before I finish for Christmas. I just need to hang them now. Pop in if you want to buy one, £30 each.  I'm expecting them all to go over the weekend, but I'll be getting some more made up in January.
There's also a gallery full of paintings and limited edition prints, and beer by Newcastle Brewing Ltd. plenty on offer.
Saturday 19th December, 11am - 4.30pm

Final Saturday before Christmas

As this Saturday 19th December will be the last day my Studio Gallery will be open, this year, I thought I'd make an event of it. I'll be selling my latest paintings and prints, as well as a limited number of small biro sketch prints. And I'll also be joined by Newcastle Brewing Ltd. who'll be selling their beer alongside my artwork. Which is apt, as they use my images on their beer labels. The local brewery is run by Mike and Leo Bell, who just so happen to be my father...-in-law and brother-in-law. They'll have some brand new beers for Christmas, including: Satsuma IPA, Vanilla Rum Porter, and Saison Barillas - a collaboration with Ouseburn Coffee Company.

30 Days of November

1/12/2015

2 Comments

 
As November comes to an end, I've finally finished a personal sketchbook project I began at the start of the month. 30 Days of November, to produce a biro drawing for a every day of the month. And treat it as a departure from my cityscape / landscape work, and instead get lost in abstract forms.
​Drawing is such an integral part of my working practice, helping to refine an idea, from the initial thumbnail sketch to the realised painting. Aside from my biro drawing of cityscapes and landscapes, the majority of my sketchbooks are full of thumbnail sketches of abstract forms.
For this project I wanted to take these crude abstract doodles a stage further, refining them in a larger format, giving more attention to structure and tonal contrast.  Here are the 30 sketches
