"Vixen" on copper leaf got her extra glow up from a chunky wooden frame. I love the fanciful nature of the painting.

This piece was completed recently. Albeit in a couple of sittings.
I blocked in all the base colours and lightly brushed in the overlayers.
I hope you do like this.

Many fond memories of this place. I had a few nights out in Pyg, and this place is one of my favourites in the city.
Sketching like this empowers me, and I may even decide to sketch even more regularly โ๏ธ

This day was a great day to see the new location of the dead zoo, which had moved location from Merrion Square.
Drawing for 2 hours and then painting for 2 hours and done ๐จ๐ปโ๐จ๐ผ

I visited Portmarnock with Senior Chen. We walked along the coast, and I took this photo.
This gave me an opportunity to draw a work bench.
I am now posting videos of places I tag on social media.
Happy days!

At the studio in Rathgar, to finish this piece in 3 sittings.
I coated the front with a thin layer of varnish. It now hangs in my kitchen ๐

The Dublin Urban Sketchers were out and about again. This time shopping. With the car show held here too.
A place that I would frequent often. Hopefully, I will get tagged again on social media ๐

As an artist, I prefer a style where the viewer's awareness is drawn toward a specific direction. While the artwork itself exists solely within the frame, the scenery actually extends beyond it. I want to express that.

A few weeks ago, the Dublin Urban Sketchers visited Smithfield. I ventured to Costa cafe with this cinema location in mind.
So I did my sketch there โ๏ธ

It is always great and puts me at ease to see another generation of sketchers and photographers not being overly absorbed by the consumption of ai

A location we went to. To sketch and observe and listen to nature.
The park is getting updated with a new cafe and terrace.
Nowadays, I am splitting the page in two. To get separate drawings. I do this as I used to work on a small scale at A5.

Once again, I was using my iPad tablet and using Pro Create.
I may get Pro Create Dream soon as this enables me to animate my images more smoothly, me thinks.

I moved onto an android/cyborg series.
Yet, I am interested in pursuing a Renaissance series.
This interests me more..

There was an arts festival on in Parnell Square.
I was close by, so I did the sketch of the theatre, which I have not done before.
Going with my usual style here. It is fun to see what unusual images emerge.

I have decided to try and teach art classes in Art Zone in this vicinity.
Wish me the best of luck!
