A couple of new drawings

These two new drawings are quite small 6x4" Faber Castell Polychromos on Pastelmatt.

I had the urge to get back to my favourite subject of animals, and found it very satisfying. 

The scan of the Owl is pretty grim, very grainy (not sure why) the original is much smoother looking. 

I am hoping to get some prints done of these little ones to sell online...we'll see.

The Old Breakwater - Porlock Weir

I don't often post here now, sadly I think almost everyone has moved to facebook, blogs seem to becoming a little redundant. Sometimes I think there is no-one out there?

Anyway this is my latest small drawing. 'The Old Breakwater-Porlock Weir' done on Fabriano Artistico HP paper (my favourite support for coloured pencils) using Faber Castell Polychromos pencils. Size is 6"x6". I do quite enjoy doing these little ones as they don't take very long to do so I dont get fed up with them.

This coloured pencil drawing of mine, 'Dartmoor Magic' was runner up in the

 Ken Bromley cover comp 2017 

I was so pleased, this picture has done very well for me and has now been sold.

Field Poppies

One I have recently completed. It is quite small, just to keep my 'pencil' eye in while I take a break from some Acrylic paintings I am doing. I find pencil drawing very relaxing while painting needs more concentration.

Size: 7" x 5". Pencils: Faber Castell Polychromos on Fabriano Artistico HP paper.
