Black on Grey on White

Here's the utterly gorgeous Dama. A very fluffy Icelandic Pony. Leading my scribble friends through the intricacies and complexities of her thick mane and coat was a new and very zen adventure. There are portraits, despite their innate complexity and numerous subtleties that just instinctively fall into place. Dama's large portrait was one of them.

The happy dances have subsided and the mad wide grins relaxed enough to get a few coherent words down. Three of my drawings ( The Hug , Chinese Whispers & Unstuck ) have been juried in to the inaugural PAS international exhibition.  Woot!!!!! PAS 14 is to be held in Quebec Canada for 6 weeks throughout the summer. This is exciting news. Pencil artists are on the rise and thanks to the internet and social media sites starting to get increased attention. Shows of this caliber will show the public the scope and beauty of pencil art .  Show just how phenomenal and exceptional our medium is. The work of 59 talented artists hanging together in one place is bound to be quite inspirational . Must get cracking on designing a crate with extra passenger space. Just like my drawings I've never been to Canada.... The Hug Pencil on Paper 40x53 cm Chinese Whispers Pencil on Paper 30x59 cm Unstuck Pencil on Paper 48 x 42 cm
