It’s quarter past eight…or, in new coinage, 2015.

Happy New Year to one and all! January is here and with it, lots of new ideas, plans, and projects.

I was really chuffed to have made it along to my first Urban Sketchcrawl in Leeds just before Christmas – I’ll write about it in full in a new post shortly( one of my sketches from the day is below) ; I’m really flattered to be asked to write an article for The Artist online edition for February,and I’m giving my first line and wash demonstration to a local art group this week, with several more booked in – I’m feeling a mixture of excitement and apprehension, but I’m sure it’ll be fine once I get started!

It occurred to me that not everyone will have actually bought the January 2015 issue of Coast which featured little old me, either by choice or simply ’cause they couldn’t find it, so here’s the article in full., courtesy of the lovely Madeleine from the editorial team.
