Conte and graphite drawing. Just before Xmas I produced these drawings as a Xmas gift for my lovely stepdaughter and her wife. Sadly Bart and Ted had Williams syndrome and are no longer with us as they passed away from complications arising from their condition. It was quite emotional drawing them but I loved their smiles, very happy children. I normally work in oil pastel but wanted to try something a little different. #portraits #commissions #conte #sketch

Playing with my new pastel sketch pad, specifically for soft pastels. Out of my comfort zone, used to working with oil pastels but good to experiment. The drawings were produced from photos I took on a walk up to Pew Tor, Dartmoor. Wet and windy walk and quite exhilarating. Watch this space for more drawings in soft pastel. I used pastel mat paper. It feels a bit like soft sandpaper. Commissions accepted if anyone interested then please message/email me via website.Thank you

Lovely exhibition at Harbour House, Kingsbridge. Come and see my work! 4 pieces on exhibit and sale along with prints and cards. We should have had the exhibition last May but alas due to Covid it got put back till now. A beautiful exhibition space. Come and support some very talented artists. @ Drawntothevalley #Dartmoor #Kingsbridge #exhibition
