This is a drawing of my beautiful baby sister, and her blue hair.
I’ve drawn her before, but this is the first drawing I’ve done and felt okay about. She’ll be my model for life.

Darling Agatha
Here’s a quick something from tonight, Saoirse Ronan as Agatha from the film The Grand Budapest Hotel. I love so much about that film!

Louise
Here’s an older drawing, of my best friend and her best friends.

Queen Bey
This was just a little sketch and experiment, but I might do a few more in this style!

Fuck Trump
Because fuck Trump, and his dense lasagna of ignorance, discrimination, and lies.

Ben Nevis
We have a brilliant view of the Ben where I work, and here’s a teeny tiny sketch I did.
Colouring pencil.
Self Portrait
It’s been a while since I’ve done a self portrait, I prefer drawing other people’s faces, not my own. But I thought I’d give it another go, and now you can see what I look like, hello!
Coloured pencil.
Minny Jackson
Here is a pencil portrait of Octavia Spencer as Minny Jackson, in the 2011 film, The Help.
If you’ve seen the film you know what scene this is from! …And if you haven’t seen the film already, you need to!
Hand drawn.
Abstract drawing exercise
This week I found an old series of drawings from a few years ago, combining different parts of some observational drawings from my sketchbook, and papercut elements.
Hand drawn and collaged, scanned.
Portraits from Memories
Earlier this year I challenged myself to draw, from memory, the faces of friends and loved ones that are no longer around. I aimed to capture those elusive memories, that always seemed to slip away before they came into focus. I brought the sketches together in a concertina book, titled ‘Portraits from Memories.’
