Quick study of a Rubens drawing. By sketching it, I could make more sense of why Rubens may have directed the dark lines in the drawing. Also, the hand takes your eye straight up to the face. There is much wrong in my sketch but I learned so much from doing it. #sketchart #sketch

Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays. Many thanks for your support, likes and tweets. I thought my study of Caravaggio would work well. #Christmas2024 #ChristmasWish #PeaceOnEarth #Peace #oilpainting #chrismas

Sketch. Whilst some may be enjoying luxurious holidays this Christmas, spare a thought for the freezing pensioners, worried farmers and the badly let down WASPI women, here in the UK. #Christmas2024 #christmas #pensioners #farmers #waspiwomen

Good morning. Portrait sketch from life. #portrait #artwork #charcoal #portraits #art #sketches #draw

Try out a new multi media sketchbook. I did this watercolour to see how it would hold up to a few washes. Have a good day everyone. #watercolour #portrait #sketchbook #sketches #art #paintings #sketching

Blossom. Practising my Chinese brushwork. Ink and watercolour on rice paper. When the painting is dry, I put a wash on the reverse side of the rice paper always hoping the painting does not disintegrate with the water. #ink #watercolor #art #Flowers #Blossom #watercolorpainting
