A collection of works submitted for exhibition.






A pencil sketch. Crescent moon, pylon, bridge and St Mary's church. There's a lot going on in this one. Ceri says it looks like a cell.
This geometric drawing is based upon the architectural features of a building. India Tower (previously known as Park Hyatt Tower) is a supertall skyscraper under construction in Mumbai, Maharashtra and will be one of the tallest and greenest buildings in India once completed.
Two images culled from my Farnham Art College Sketchbook 1993.
The first image is titled, 'Shop & Bin' and is based upon an urban facade with street furniture. Collage. The second collage is titled, 'The Swimming Pool Library.' Inspired by a novel by Alan Hollinghurst. Collage. I did a lot of swimming at the time.
A pencil sketch of the spire. A preliminary study for another work. Finished? The architects name eludes me.
A geometric study of the WTC Twin Towers and surrounding architectural features. Namely the 'trident'.

Parkland statue sketch.

Parkland statue sketch, unfinished. 2008
I created this sketch one afternoon while one of my friends dozed and the other two completed a lap of the park on roller blades.
To me, the drawing is incomplete.
Rather a snapshot of a statue in context.
He has a book in his hand.
I could add some watercolours.
Moreover, it is completely unfinished.
The park was full of people passing time.
In the sunshine.
It has beautiful gates and fountains and gardens.
It has a museum and cafes and sculptures.
It has joggers, skaters and rollers.
Shirkers, illusionists, musicians, and contortionists.
The tree lined avenue with the perfect gradient was closed for refurbishment.
This time around anyway.
Hail, rain, fall or shine.
The best park in the world.
Let's go around one more time!

Campsite phone box sketch.


Pencil sketch of a campsite phone box.

This sketch was completed over the course of 3 days, while we sat chatting to each other and the international visitors. The phone boxes are blue and they hang on sun bleached yellow walls, they became very popular in the evenings, usually the one on the right which still has a working internal light. I have tried to capture some of the animation around the scene and a sense of place. The sketch has become smudged through carriage.



Kerching, pring, pring, dong.
