3 sketches of Alan created with indian ink using a metre of bamboo with a paintbrush attached to each end. The first two were 15-min monochrome sketches . The third image was a 1 hour pose – the first marks were gently done in Wolf’s carbon, then the image worked into with indian ink and metre long…

I started with a quick sketch in Wolf’s carbon looking at contour rather than shadow: Then moved on to using three coloured pencils taped together for the next 10 minute pose: Went back to Wolf’s carbon for the next 10 minute sketch but this time was looking at the shadows and negative spaces: Finally I spent the longer 1-hour…

Louise kept the same pose for 2 x 2-hour sessions. I started with a 1 hour sketch in Wolf’s carbon: Then spent the rest of that session and most of the next on this watercolour painting on an A1 sheet of paper (approximately 2 hour’s work): Finally I spent the last half-hour doing a quick…

The last 3 life session of the semester taught by Estelle Lovatt, keeping the same model and pose for the first 2 sessions – it was meant to be all 3 but Pamala was unwell the last week so Louise modelled instead. The first drawing is in Wolf’s carbon and the other 2 are in…

Series of quick sketches of Francis created mainly by using a reed or scratchy pen dipped in indian in – not an easy medium to control.

Colour sketches were each made in about 10 mins using water soluble felt-tip pens. The b/w drawing was made using Wolf’s carbon pencil and chalk on tinted paper and took about an hour to sketch.

90 minute sketch of Francis. Interesting to find that after a 15-year break I default back to my college drawing style. Hopefully my mark-making will develop from here and mature under Mick’s expert tuition.

A series of intensely brightly coloured, simple square, grid-based compositions I created in the 1990s. Although framed and presented as paintings, this series was created using steam-fixed dyes and resist on silk. I was playing around with building up subtle layers of very transparent colour.

This series of images were an experiment in colour. The first picture is the original, created by physically building up layers of paint and crayon to create a multicoloured, rich texture. This image was then scanned and digitally manipulated in Photoshop to create the other versions.

These are a few stills from a multimedia kaleidoscope I made in Flash/Director in 1999/2000 as part of studying for a Masters degree. It had a number of layers with visibility control, each one displaying animations from a library. I think I still have the .exe file but I doubt it would run on my computer. I always…
