The first two on rubbish paper

Comments

The paper's rubbish but the art isn't. I like the top one.

Thanks Christopher. The other hazard that day which is always with me, very shaky hand.

I can sympathize Derek. I have shaky hands too (and pain) - Spondylosis.

Comprehensive, colourful, cheery and I like the very much. What a pleasure to do on holiday.

Thanks Michael, there are more. My sketching gear goes everywhere with me, unfortunately I left my sketchbook at home "Duh!"

I like both of these Derek especially the top one. The pen work is so free . Wonderful.

Well there you are then...you produce masterpieces even with rubbish paper.

A4 copy paper, given by the camp site owner, therefore poor with washes. The first above a car park at a NT walk Cubert Common. The gang went walking and I found a reasonable spot high up in a very very strong wind which played havoc with the unpadded paper. The second is inside the NT cafe at the Lost Heligan Gdns while wife did the whole site. Plenty of people about, good fun - no wind or not natural made.

About the Artist

Eleventyeight as my hashing pals called my new age recently, it's supposed to sound better. Trying to paint every day in acrylics using only expired credit/debit cards, and partially succeeding as they're only for me and not show these days.
