sketchbook Ladakh


This is one from a few years ago. A trip to Northern India and Ladakh. I think this is a house that was opposite the guest house I was staying at in Leh. It was a lovely spot, a lot of poplar trees about and of course brilliant views of the Himalayas.

sketchbook art gallery


I used to send my students to the art gallery to draw the statues. The hope was that it would improve their understanding of the planes and forms of the body, this is doubtfull as most never moved beyond the coffee shop, my drawing however did improve. This is a very early effort.

self portraite


This is from a sketchbook. I always do a picture of me at the end of any drawing holiday, this is from a recent holiday in Burnie Tasmania, staying with my great friend Carol.
