Original A4 watercolour painting with drawing in ink and posca markers.
I love the variety of buildings on the Fleetwood High Street, it is also a nice walk that follows the tram tracks through Fleetwood itself.
A4 watercolour painting on paper
Modelled after one of Rob Turpin’s inktober sketches in 2016. I love his work, I am a big fan and I have 3 original pieces of work in my office as well as a few prints. It is being influenced by others that has made me want to keep painting, and drawing and expand my capabilities.
That isn’t to say I want to draw like my heroes I want to draw like myself and that’s what I continue to do.
Views of Preston is my first ever book, it has 56 pages and is all the drawing I did to prepare for Derelict Art of the City micro-residency. I’m really excited to share it with people, and it is available in the shop
My favourite pieces in the book I also made into a series of 5 prints It was amazing working with Derelict themselves and was an amazing opportunity to draw and I will be making my own drawings in combination with workshop participants into a digital book.
My last print that I made for Trinity Hospice is customised by hand, and what most people don’t realise is that I do them to order, so I have a draw full of prints that I have signed and put the title on and numbered them. And then they sit in that draw until I need them. I then grab a print and alter it when they are sold. I have a few ideas for my next print, and have ideas on how to improve the experience for customers too.
The next batch will be printed on different paper and will probably be Fleetwood Ferry, although I have some ideas for tea cups, and I will be looking for volunteers to try the new process out on in the future. Watch this space!
I love this place, this town this beach and I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else. I grew up here on this beach, it isn’t necessarily the most beautiful place in the world, but it is up there for me.
I love model making and I really want to make it more of my process when I manage to get on top of everything else that needs doing for the business.
