One last snowflake before the spring…

1 Reply

Delighted to see this – Andrea Hawkins has had one of my synchronized swimmer ‘snowflakes’ embroidered on her dryrobe, in celebration of her ice mile.

New drawing!... "Skinny Dipping: a hypothesis" I will not say that this happened, this is merely a hypothesis. If it had happened, if it had happened that close on a dozen girls had skinny dipped in the lake, in a place remarkably close to the centre of a seaside town... if they had, they might have found that the cover of darkness is quite exceptional, the bright lights being all around, but not actually in that place. If they had, there would only have been the squealing of delight to give them away. They would have been invisible, but not, it is true, inaudible. But the Outside is a big place, and giggling would have carried only so far. The Outside is good for swimming. If they had swum there. Hypothetically. #skinnydipping #OutdoorSwimmer #art

Little commission I completed a few weeks ago - a digital drawing. And yes, you can ask me to match your wallpaper / paintwork as Sophia did, as long as you can send me a sample of the colour. A little point here - I do know some artists would be outraged at the very thought of being asked to create art to match the decor, but seriously, would you go into a gallery and say, "I'd like to buy that painting, it's lovely and it will look absolutely awful in my front room". If it's a commission, an artist should be able to fulfil a brief be it subject, colour, size or whatever, or they are just pleasing themselves... and there's another word for that ;-) Just saying this, as sometimes I think people are worried about getting a stroppy reply if they ask a question like that. If you do, find someone else to ask.... Changing a brief half way thorough is another matter we needn't go into here (because this was not the case!). This was a lovely drawing to do, helped in part because of the natural grace in the initial photos I worked from. Mind you, I can invent grace. Trust me, I'm an artist ;-) #outdoorswimmingsociety #OutdoorSwimmer #commissionswelcome
