Greta

A packed to the gunnels life drawing class last night at The Sussex Arts Club were treated to the sinous modelling skills of Greta. There were some notable newcomers in the class including master designer Nigel Spall, reknowned cartoonist Phil Dobson and expert illustrator and generally fab chap Pete Greenwood, who were all enthused by the experience and keen to repeat it. Here are my best efforts at portraying Greta. And then I'm off to Palma for a few weeks where life drawing classes are as dragon's eggs.

Ariane Plumley

On Tuesday night at The Sussex Arts Club our model was the lovely Ariane who had a wonderfully defined torso as, hopefully, you'll see from my sketches below.

Emma Sandham-King

Monday night's new life drawing session in Kate Shields' fabulous flat in Embassy Court, Brighton was attended by 8 or so artists. Our model was the always wonderful Emma who has more curves than than road in San Fransisco er... the one that curves a lot.
Anyway, here are my best daubings from a great session.

Vicki

Tuesday night's life drawing session at SCAC was a bit quieter than usual as a small but cuddly band of stalwarts gathered to draw our model Vicki. I was feeling a bit dodgy after spending an evening with my mate Paul's brother Adrian who'd picked up something dodgy after falling into a canal in Holland.
Probably psychological but instead of repairing to the local hostilery for much quaffage I went home.
Here are my best Vickis.

Cleo Kate

Last night I returned to my regular Tuesday night life drawing class at The Sussex Arts Club after a break of a few weeks while I was in Hungary and then recovering. Our model was the fabulous Kate who has often been compared to Bettie Page although I think she's more Cleopatra. It was good to see
regular Rich and another returnee, the excellent cartoonist and all round good egg- Geo Parkin. After 2 hour of attempting to capture Kate's pulchritude we repaired to Mrs Fitzherberts for much nattering and quaffage. Ugh my head! here are my best scribblings.

Trip to Debrecen

I'm out here in Hungary to get me teeth fixed. It's about a third of the price it is in England and it needs doing so here I am. I arrived yesterday and after booking in to the rather quaint, wooden, funky hotel I went for a walkabout and here are the shots I took. Debrecen on a Saturday afternoon is pretty dead with no shops open and not many people about but the centre is quite pretty. The food here seems good. I had a great fish soup for lunch. So now I've got to calm my nerves before tomorrow's procedure. This is not aided by the fact that the dentist's name is Atilla. Presumably Atilla the Hungarian. Fingers crossed!
