THE ARTIST

I was so chuffed this lunchtime to see the article about the Patchings Exhibition in The Artist magazine. There's a little photo' of my Scottish Beach picture and my words about it.

Really I feel extremely lucky to have won this prize, I'm in fine company on this spread, I can't help feeling that mine is a lucky picture rather than a very good one.

Here's one of the drawings I've been making in one of the lovely little sketchbooks I won as part of the Derwent Prize. I decided to use it to make drawings 'outside my comfort zone' that is, make drawings out there in public, rather than safe in the confines of my little room. They've been rather hit and miss so far, but I've enjoyed posting them to Flikr, which is a great motivator.
