Great studio session with dancer Isaac Lewis last week, working through improvisation, experiments with props, lighting, etc. Here’s a drawing. Charcoal on paper, 44cm x 32cm. #celf #drawing #dance #dawns #portread #charcoaldrawing

Surreal is the right word. Two completely indistinguishable positions on small boats from a Tory & a Labour MP on Newsnight yesterday. Neither one of them capable of making a case that stands up to the slightest logical pushback. Pathetic.

Fun Sunday Life Drawing yesterday. Not hugely attended, so focused on ongoing experiments with low lighting, thrown shadows, etc, (have recently screened studio skylights for this purpose), and made a couple of oil sketches. Poses by Sofia. Pictures by me. #SundayLifeDrawing #celf #lifedrawing

Fun contrast with UK city rivers. Bobbing about in the Rhine in Basel a few years ago felt pretty surreal compared to London and Cardiff. (Bloody Europe, with its clean water, etc. Grrr!). www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

This fella (presumably salvaged after the destruction of the abbey) stands on the side of a house on West St, Tavistock. Just learned that when I was a kid I thought he was God.

Great Sunday Life Drawing yesterday. Poses by Dez, pictures by Lou (drawing from life for the second time - hats off!), Thais, Emily and me. Next session May 25th with Harlan. #sundaylifedrawing #celf #lifedrawing #figuredrawing #charcoaldrawings

Prepping Contemporary Arts Society for Wales talk for Saturday, and looking through Italy sketchbooks from the early 1990s - studies of sculpture, oil paintings, frescoes, and drawings (and a few innocent bystanders) in Pisa, Florence, Prato, and round about. Pencil and charcoal, mostly A6 and A5.

A few pictures from this year's Machynlleth Comedy Festival portraiture workshop - marvellous comedians Amy Matthews and Mikey Bligh-Smith modelling, and marvellous festival-goers drawing. Always a delight! @machcomedyfest.bsky.social #portread #celf #machynlleth #portraitdrawing #portreadaeth
