A bit more drawing today.

Work in progress for this Dartmoor tree, seen near Burrator.

Mulling over a title as I work….

‘Gathering’ #2

New monotype with pencil drawing.

Experimenting with lighter colours, but trying to keep the same atmospheric feel as my darker pieces.

I love the quiet found amongst the fir trees at Burrator.

A great couple of days of printmaking, first with Emma @princetownpress.bsky.social for a Heritage Letterpress Workshop. Lots of great tuition & a hoard of prints to take away.

Then a day making #Dartmoor inspired monotypes at home.

Printmaking bliss!

Great talk, and Rupert’s book ‘What Remains’ is a must read.

Really delighted that my image was featured in this wonderful publication by @dartmoorcollective.org
The idea behind the brief for Flow was to create a theme that was open to wide interpretation but which would inspire artists to look beneath the surface of Dartmoor and explore how it is shaped as a landscape - by people, time, weather and water...

A fabulous new zine.
Beautifully designed and with a great selection of thoughtful imagery.

Out of this stony rubbish? Son of man,
You cannot say, or guess, for you know only
A heap of broken images,..."
(The work @dartmoorcollective.org do with amateur, emerging and professional artists is fabulous, take a look.) (Apologies to Eliot.)
Brief clip of a (very) short film I've done based on the @dartmoorcollective.org Flow brief and which I'll be showing at next week's zine launch.

Bit of an experiment this - mixing up video footage taken on the moor over a 2 year period with a layered synth sequence and ambient drone.

Getting down to some drawing this afternoon.

Using ink pen to draw the trees on top of the monotypes I made a couple of weeks ago.

Inspired by a beautifully misty area in the trees near Burrator, Devon.

Nearly there, I think….

Need some help #Dartmoor and #Devon friends...

We're looking for a suitable venue for the forthcoming @dartmoorcollective.org Flow zine launch.

Ideally somewhere Dartmoor adjacent but easily accessible from Plymouth / Exeter capable of accommodating 30+ people.

Any ideas most welcome.

Ellen Thesleff's self portrait of 1895, goes beyond a depiction of outward appearances and conveys the enigma of the artist who helped introduce Impressionism to Finland; she regarded herself as a poet with a brush, always trying to capture what she called 'the dream of life.'

Got my printing press out for the first time this year!

Spent a few lovely hours looking at ideas & making 3 Dartmoor inspired monotypes.

Once they are dry, I will draw trees on the top with ink pen.

The wide landscape will then be brought in to a more intimate view.🤞

The finished biro drawing of the ancient oak in Bluebell Woods, Plymouth.

The last for #drawingaugust

It’s been great to see all the drawings people have contributed for the month, especially on this platform.

Looking forward to next year already!😉😁👍✏️

All my drawings this month have been made in an A5 sketchbook, but this is the first on a double page.

Back to the lovely red biro again!

A gathering of trees at Devonport Park.

As well as drawing, I also make monotype prints. I’ve started a series of monotypes on the theme of gathering.

When the print is dry, I draw trees on the top.

I think I’ll use this drawing again for another in the series.

Still in Devonport Park for today’s drawing of a Holm Oak.

This beautiful specimen carries great grandeur in the corner of the park.

Definitely one that I will come back to.

Biro on paper.
