This is supposed to be singer George Michael in his Wham! days but I can't get it spot on. Hopefully it at least looks like a handsome man from the 80s!! I was into heavy rock back then but still had a soft spot for the catchy Wham! songs, since he was my guilty crush!

 

Did you have a guilty crush as a teenager? Come on, reveal all!

This lockdown malarkey has got me drawing again, done from an old squirrel photo and given the white pencil on black paper treatment... It's surprising what happens when you have time on your hands!

This is another in a long series of artworks I’ve created. They are under a general title of “Going in Circles.” Here is a pencil sketch, cropped, on 6 x 8 Strathmore Drawing Paper. I added digital color with SketchClub and a border using Snapseed.

Not my best doggy drawing, but hey, someone might like it!! Not sure exactly what type of dog - think I saw it in a calendar. It's from a while ago so I can't remember!

Another back view of a woman! I found some hair photos on google and have saved a copy for reference. I don't know for sure but have a feeling the back of my hair looks a bit like this if I don't dry it properly! (Or maybe it's wishful thinking! But my hair is naturally kinky)

Churches of North-West Essex

 

The start of another one of my collections

Recently in my travels I have come across another book. This one is entitled ‘The Parish Churches of North-West Essex and are drawn by Charles Grigg Tait and presumably the words are by the same person.

This is an attempt to replicate his drawings with my photos, these representations will not be exactly as positioned as most have been taken prior to me finding the book.

As usual, I hope you enjoy them.

St Peter and St Paul's church is one of the six round towered churches in Essex.

 

"Pinwheel Galaxy and Crater - Vittorio Marella”, 6” x 4”, 2021, graphite, dirt and wood on Schoellerhammer drawing board mounted on MDF

 

I thought that this drawing was finished (see below), but when I was attempting to drill a key hole slot in the back of the piece (ie. Lesson # 37b - always drill a key hole slot prior to making the art) the drill press took creative matters in it’s own hands and—as predictably as the titlular meteorific crater references—plunged a hole clear through the panel! You can imagine my (%£€#¥<@&$:/!!!!) response. Ultimately it seemed fitting to welcome that physical (in contrast to rendered) “anomaly“ as part of the work: I filled the hole with a piece of wooden dowel, but made no effort to mask the addition.

 

At one point the subject of this work, the Venetian painter Vittorio Marella, was studying astrophysics, but eventually turned to a wholehearted focus on painting. That said this little work—part of my on-going project of portraiture as a kind of meditation on vocation / “voice”—suggests a metaphoric fittingness of that astronomical fascination.

 

The drawing’s composition nods to early (Medieval / Renaissance) images of astronomers.

How funny that the day I plan to share my New Holland Honeyeater, my bird-loving friend Dave put up a photo of one! I must admit I've seen them on his photostream before and have always thought they are lovely looking birds!

Finished! I think this may have been my most complicated miniature drawing yet! I draw a lot of food, so it was fun to work with some of the colors that I don't get to use as often!

I put out a request for hands. This was sent in from one of my friends from a previous career. Matt is a model and can be found on Instagram.

Finished the drawings and am contemplating how to procedure with color, pencil or ink. I had a lot of fun creating this page.

MY TRIBUTE TO RABINDRA NATH TAGORE
