11" x 7" LINE & WASH. When I say "Superb Starling" I'm not complimenting myself - that's the name of the bird in the picture, lol. This was a quickie for the SAA's Weekly Competition (Wk8). Did it tonight at the art-club.

MARQUEZ, ROSSI & MORRIS
15" x 11" LINE & WASH. This was just a bit of fun aimed at my mate who's just started racing his CBR600 having been assigned the Racing Number 14. It only took an hour.

MARKET DAY
11" x 7.5" LINE & WASH. I did this one over the weekend while chilling out at the caravan. Well actually, I'd started it at the Art Club on Friday night but never got around to finishing it there. The drawing took me AGES and involved more eraser than pencil, LOL. Once I was pretty happy with the outline, I started to go over it with pen and added loads of random detail. Personally, I feel that the drawing is better than the painting.

CATS EYES
11" x 7.5" LINE & WASH. I found this on Judith Farnworth's Blog and decided ti have a go at it. As far as I'm concerned, Judith's is FAR better, but she got in touch with me on FaceBook and said she actually preferred mine!! That's a massive compliment coming from such a great artist. Well chuffed!

Our Own Art-Club!
Each Friday we go to the local Art-Club in Horwich. It's a thriving club with a broad range of people of all ages and skill-levels. Apart from the regular painting sessions, we have many professional artists visiting us to demonstrate their skills and to run workshops.
But sometimes, it's nice when just a few friends get together mid-week too, and so here we are in Simon's "studio", benefitting from the skill and experience of his father, Brian Waddington. It looks a bit cramped in there, but we were just huddled together to fit in the photo frame :-)
And you can drink beer in this club! :-)
