I am currently in Northern Ireland taking care of my ageing mother. Yesterday we waited for four hours for her to see a doctor, plenty of time to study the backs of people’s heads.

Developing my drawing style
http://www.klimt.com |
I am currently scanning my life drawings from 2011 which I hope will soon be published here on this blog. While looking through all the studies I decided I need to stylise my illustrations to give them a more accomplised feel. As I like Art Neuveau so much I plan to try this style in the near future and see what developes. Artists I like are: Alphonse Mucha and Gustav Klimt. More modern Artists I admire in this Art Neaveau style are: Audrey Kawasaki and Adam Huges
Figure Quick Sketch
http://www.figurequicksketch.com/ I suspect “Reilly method” Chris Legaspi is behind this site. I’ll check it out later, looks interesting. I tried the reilly method last week and found it very rewarding, it’ll take some practice before I’ve mastered it, if ever.
What is the point of this blog?
If you look down the page a little you will notice that I have not updated this blog for two years! I ask myself, “Why keep it?” and after a moment of silence I came up with an idea to make this place more interesting, for me and anyone who digs what I like – if any.
Due to security at work I am only allowed to use IE9 to browse, privately I haven’t forgiven Microsoft for IE7 so I need somewhere to store my bookmarks (virtual bookmarks are no use). So welcome to my bookmarks! This is where I store interesting links for my own use but if you like them – abuse them. Happy surfing…
