A peek into the artists mind. A selection of drawings, sketches, thumbnails, doodles, roughs and life studies from my sketchbooks over the past 30 years or so.
We artists have these secret sketchbooks where we hone our craft and explore ideas for future pictures. It's a shame they never get seen because very often there are little gems that never see the light of day. It's where we make mistakes and make discoveries. Because they are private and not normally seen we can draw with abandon and explore subject matter which we wouldn't normally put into a painting.
I've decided to open my sketchbooks for all to see. It's scary stuff, it feels like I will be standing before you naked just holding my pencil. Enjoy my embarrassment. I'd love to know what you think.
