Long time no post. At the moment it’s still all about the pottery and shows no sign of stopping, particularly as I decided to continue my pottery course for another year. However, here and there I have done the odd doodle in my sketchbook and Moleskines. So, here is a small selection over the last few months that I don’t mind too much.

When your Dragon obsessed daughter insists you draw a Dragon, what can you do, but do as she says! My Dragon obsessed daughter for her birthday, asked for all things Dragon related, and she got them. A Dragon bracelet made by my friend Sylvie, Dragons books, Dragon mug, pen, bookmark, etc. Her passion for Dragons is something I don’t share, but, fully support and encourage. The sketchbook is handmade and includes paper of different tones, weights and thickness. It was made by my friend Helen Smith on Etsy.

As it’s been ages since I posted any sketchbook/moleskine work I thought it was a good time to post a small selection of drawings over the past few months.
Read MoreI was going through my Moleskine sketchbook today and reviewing some of the drawings and doodles I have finished over the last few months not previously posted, and came across this one, ‘Carpe Diem‘. A quote very much over used from a design point of view if ever there was one, but…pertinent in these times I think. Many friends and loved ones both near and far are going through particularly hard times. Current affairs remind us constantly of the tragedies many are facing both here and abroad. So, in the spirit of counting ones blessings, I say ‘Seize the Day‘. Don’t waste it bemoaning your lot, and remember there is likely to be someone out there worse of than you. If the sun is shining, go outside and feel it on your face, taste some fresh air and appreciate the beauty of nature. The ArtHouse Coop of New York reblogged my post on their Tumblr blog. Thanking them kindly. If you are interested in purchasing any original pieces, postcards and prints then please visit my ART SHOP.
