A bit of fun with this 3 minute drawing of Dominic with my eyes shut. Note to self - don’t take the charcoal off the page!
The left handed drawing continues
Another 3 minute sketch this time with the brilliant Frieda. First 2 minutes with left hand then final touches with right.

Life Drawing Prize at HSOA
I’ve got very behind with these blogs so here goes!
Firstly, I was delighted to win Life drawing prize as part of the Summer Exhibition at Hampstead School Of Art. This 3 minute sketch was a new discovery for me as it was mainly done with my left hand (I’m right handed). I felt where anatomical accuracy was lost, a sense of energy and movement was gained that I was really excited about. And so, a new art adventure began!

Exploring colour with life painting
I’ve been having an inspiring time doing life painting at the fantastic Hampstead School of Art.
The palette for this painting of Faith was driven by a bright orange sheet hanging behind her.
