SKETCHBOOKS 1

    This  and the next section  show a few  pages from some of my many sketchbooks. They appear in (more or less) chronological order, beginning with a page from my NDD sketchbook back in Art School days and ending with work done in the last year or two. (Click on the images to enlarge as usual.)

​

They have been scanned in at A4 size - some of the books were a little bigger than A4 in which case the image has been cropped. I haven't made any attempt to describe the subject matter.

​

The intention is to provide an insight into range and working method and how these change over time.

​

All these pages are drawn from direct observation - I haven't shown any pages that are concerned with working out ideas and compositions etc. Some of these drawings were done with the intention of perhaps leading onto a painting - others are done merely for the pleasure of doing the drawing.

​

Of course this can only be a brief glimpse. I have been using sketchbooks all my life and my current sketchbook is number 55 so this lot doesn't even scratch the surface.
