Thankyou. She was perfect

Thankyou.

Sketch in coloured pencil of longhaired women with hair tied up with her face half covered, cuddling a pure white english bull terrier dog. The dog is looking directly out of the picture at the viewer . You can only see the dogs head. It is partially coloured.

A self portrait I'm working on, (although probably wont do much more) with my beloved and much missed #bullterrier Nansi.

I'm starting to be a bit more confident in pastels. But still out of my comfort zone.

An up close and cropped drawing of a deep red poppy in an illustrative style

I don’t play and experiment enough. So I have. Seeing what works in a new paper.
Decided I hate paper as it has a brick like texture
But continued to see how far I could push it.
Refuses to take any more abuse. So guess I’m done.

Cheers. It was one of the first portraits I drew. I surprised myself how well it came out.
I should re do him.

YouTube video by Nine Inch Nails - Topic Vessel

remember when Trent Reznor recorded a concept album in 2007 about a dystopian America becoming a christo-fascist country where art is a crime and everyone is under cyber surveillance, and people thought he was a bit dramatic?? good times.

I cried too, it was amazing

4 days later and I'm still overwhelmed. #NineInchNails in Manchester. #Treznor is a genius. I wept during the first song, just him and a piano. I sobbed when it finished, I didn't want it to end. No other music or gig has ever hit me so hard. Overwhelmed
@treznor.bsky.social
Words are not enough.

You blew my mind in manchester.
Only waited 35 years...it was worth every minute. 53 years old and sobbed. Thankyou for providing the soundtrack to my adult life.

Thank you.

Thank you. ❤️

That was a repost of another artists drawing I loved it too

Thankyou so much. 😁

True, I'm never happy with anything I draw. But that is what pushes me on, to learn and try.

Thank you Lee. ❤️

That's incredibly kind of you to say.
They've already gone to their home ( all to one person). But I could try to send photos.

I drew him first, he's on my feed. As is Charlie and Mick. 😁

Fairly quick drawing for me. Not really finished but the surface wont take any more abuse.

A head pastel portrait of a wolf which is white and grey fur with orangy brown tufts looking directly out at the viewer, with a dark background of stone.

Wolf for our wolf

Pastel on pastel mat
Quite a challenge. I'm still struggling to understand pastels.

Thankyou, his hair was quite a challenge

An early drawing I did of my friend Harry.
An immensely takented chainsaw carver, sadly no longer with us. This got to the finals of SAA artist of the year and was in an exhibition in London, which was thrilling.

Thank you so much

Yesterday I got to give @michaelrosenyes.bsky.social a portrait of him I drew after we saw him @hayfestival.bsky.social a few years ago.
He's brought us joy and debate via his books and on radio.
