I and a numer of my artist colleagues will be exhibiting at Taurus Crafts, Lydney, Gloucestershire, starting this coming Saturday, May 6th, with a preview opening at 2.00 pm. . All the details can be found on the Taurus Crafts website.
I was very pleased to have one of my drawings chosen by Taurus Crafts for the exhibition poster. I was particularly flattered as it is not a straightforward representation of a standard pose. In fact it represents one of my own peculiar and idiosyncratic fascinations whereby I juxtapose either two opposing views of the same pose or bring together and synthesise parts of two poses. This example selected for the poster is of the later.
It is an A1 drawing on 220gsm cartridge paper. Starting with a graphite pencil in each hand (hence a recent nickname of '2-pencil-bob') I then introduce some tinted charcoal and some further stronger mark-making with a softer graphite pencil in my dominant right hand.
