Latest print for the 20:20 print exchange

The 20:20 print exchange (via Hot Bed Press) was established in 2009, to exchange work from various printmakers in one studio. Studios all over the UK (and the rest of the world) now recruit multiples of 10 printmakers to take part. Each printmaker produces an edition of 25 prints, 20x20cm in any print medium. Each printmaker’s edition is distributed between the 10 ‘Home’ studio participants and 10 others studio printmakers. 4 prints go the studios and the last 1 goes on tour

Petworth House. Another sketching adventure!

I’ve been writing a series of blogs this year about using your sketchbook en plein air. The first post I talked about fostering a sketching regime – sketching on a regular basis to develop your observational skills. In the last post I talked about my sketching equipment and ran through some personal choices for good mark making on the go. Through these blogs I have used the lovely Seawhite concertina sketchbooks. They have been around for a while, but this year was the first

Sketching En Plein Air

More about sketching on holiday and the equipment I use. My last post I gave you a little overview of sketching and developing a sketching routine. This post I’d like to tell you about our recent 5 day break to the Isle of Wight (https://www.visitisleofwight.co.uk/), which is very close to us and great for a short break and a bit of sketching. I decided to use a concertina sketchbook I’d bought from Seawhites’ (I like to pop into their factory shop, but you can buy online fro

Life Drawing Parties!

As you may know I have been running Life Drawing workshops in West Worthing. This originally came about after students on a couple of my Drawing and Painting courses had wanted to try life drawing in class. After a couple of 2 hour sessions here and there, and at times a logistical nightmare with the local Adult Education provider. I then tired running a day workshop myself, privately for students. This was a great success and it developed from there. I still only run worksho

Sketching on holiday.

I thought I’d write this post, as I know a lot of my students always intend to sketch while they are on holiday. But as most of us know our sketchbook, pencils and ‘travel’ paints just stay in our case! Over the past few years I have made a point of sketching every day (almost) of my holidays. Over the summer (during my break from teaching) I challenge myself to sketch every day, no matter what. The first few days (sometimes weeks) are terrible, but once I get into it I start
