While at the art fairs I often get asked what materials I use. I have just uploaded a new page to my website, detailing all of it. It turned out to be a longer list than I initially thought...

The good news is all you actually need (unless you are a stationery addict) is a sheet of paper, a few pencils, a pencil sharpener and an eraser.

I've been busy on portraits in preparation for Christmas, this one is Duke and I have persmission to share it from Chris and Debbie his owners.

I'll be back in Hawes at the on Sunday 26 October. Do say hello if you pop in, I will be drawing (it is addictive) but I'm always happy to have a chat.

I have a maximum of 8 drawing slots available with guaranteed Christmas delivery, so if you are thinking about it, now is a good time to get in touch and reserve your space.
