Ive been neglecting the ol' blog of late. Ive been so busy building a new website ( coming soon) and getting my VW Caricature bus ready for next years festivals. Combine that with shifts at the Fire Station, throw in some urgent DIY and thats the reason i have been blogless.....things will change...bear with me. Heres Pat, from a charity event last week .
Looking, just looking ,honest . Harebury Hall , Leeds, some beauts !! Love the patina'd rat look on the top one . I cant wait to introduce Myrtle to the caricature scene next year.
Ive always had a passion for drawin and painting , particularly caricature. I have no formal training and have learnt through studying the styles of my favourite artists. I love to draw live and strive to improve in this and my studio work. Influences (in no particular order) include Glenn Ferguson, Joe Bluhm, Op De Beeck, Paul Moyse, Niall O Loughlin, Mike Giblin and Terry Dunnett. I earn my living as a Firefighter at the moment but hope to make drawing caricatures a career soon......If you want to hire my services contact me..07922648866
