Here’s my first drawing of 2011 - a pen and charcoal sketch of the home of our New Year hosts and old friends A&L in Carnoustie. Sitting outside on New Year’s Day to sketch this was a chilly drawing session, but worth the effort I think.

Waiting for Waxwings
While hanging about in the hope of seeing waxwings today, I drew the sea buckthorn and one of the gannets that was diving into the sea. I heard the seal snorting before I saw his head bobbing about in the water.

Gypsy the Greyhound
Met the lovely people from Scottish Greyhound Sanctuary and the most laidback dog in the world - Gypsy. You know a dog is comfortable in your presence when it rolls on its back with its legs in the air. Please visit their website even if you’ve never considered rescuing a greyhound. We would if we could and we will… soon.
I am an artist based in Lossiemouth, Moray, Scotland, inspired by the natural world. I paint in acrylic, oil and watercolour, draw with pens and sketch with pencils and charcoal. My aim with this blog is to use it as an incentive to keep drawing, drawing, drawing. I will be posting my drawings, perhaps some paintings, photos, thoughts and other inspirational images, music and video that I come across.
