Emma more of my past drawings(all cp's welcome to view)


Hi Emma I have been away at my mums and as promised i've finally got around to digging out some more of my drawings. Most of these ones were drawn at school between 1979-84 towards my O'level exam. I can't believe how many unfinished drawings I found. This is about all I have left to show you unless i get around to finishing some. Sorry i have had to take two out as i can't seem to make them any smaller.

This isn't very good and has also been damaged (think its pastel off another drawing) but I thought i'd add it as its a pen and ink drawing.


This is my first pastel attempt. Sorry for any glare/reflections from the glass.


This is a drawing of Michael Jackson in his earlier days (pastel).


Pastel drawing


Pastel drawing of a pine martin.


This was drawn after leaving school 1985.



This one was drawn around 1984 in pastels.



The next two were drawn in 1994, crushed can in watercolour pencils.




This was drawn for printing so had to be a simple line drawing, its my nephew when he was about 2-3 yrs old. Done 1995, i also have it printed in yellow.


Incidently my first attempt at printing was at school I did a very detailed portrait drawing of David Essex, then had to cut it out to print and completely ruined it, still to this day I regret and can't believe my teacher let me cut it up, knowing (as I learnt after) it was not suitable to print.

This is my most recent drawing in watercolour paint and as you can see still not finished, 2006. My first attempt at watercolours.

Deester I love this one



It is very effective and excellent for a first pastel, the lady who is running the pastel workshop I am attending in May has now had a go at using those Jaxell pastels and she thinks they are excellent 72 pastels for £10

Thanks emma, thats a compliment coming from you! ive never heard of pastel workshops before, where do you find out about them? I think i'l get some of those pastels though as i'd now like to finish some of the old drawings that i've started. I yet have to finish the water colour i started and i've promised to draw my friends cat that went missing. Maybe i'l make a start tomorrow.
