SKETCHES
In my spare time I enjoy sketching portraits and within the last few years have found a fascination with sketching more macabre images of great war veterans due to the individual nature of each person.
Most of the sketches in the "digital" gallery are completed using my Samsung Android Tablet with the "Sketchbook" app within a relatively short period of time so are loose and kept to a time limit between 30-120 mins (whilst watching a film on the sofa!).
Since 2008 I begun practising digital sketching within photoshop using an intuos wacom tablet and although I do not draw too much with pencils and pens anymore I still have a library of work (up until 2018) completed over the years from from quick desk sketching to life drawing classes.
Some digital sketches may include time lapse videos which are linked beneath the description (after selecting an image).
Ontop of my primary academic studies I completed a City & Guilds certification in life drawing and painting between 2009-2010.
