Sketching keeps me focused and for those who have

Sketching keeps me focused and for those who have followed me for a while, know I sketch everyday. Last week a good friend Ange from @botanyshope5 asked me to handover my sketchbooks as she had an idea for an online exhibition. After a selection process, 75 pieces were chosen for the exhibition aptly called ‘Sketchbook Pages’ Over 3 days the 75 pieces will be uploaded to www.botanyshop.co.uk the first 25 will be available to buy from Sunday 6th December from 8pm. In the meantime I’ll keep you updated on stories, for all upcoming news you can sign up to the Obiko newsletter, link in bio. Have a wondrous December #onlineartsales #collaborativeart #sketchbookpages

He wanted to show his face today and get a little fresh air. Hidden between pages of flowers he started to get a little nauseous from the smell #sketchbookstories #mixedmediaart #portaitofaboy

This morning I did post a sketch, then thought I would make a little video of a few more instead. These are all ideas for larger pieces of artwork and I’ll be applying colour to a few of them. I’m having to have a reshuffle of work in the studio, then I’ll be able to work on 594 x 841mm (Al) paper and canvases around the same size #ideasonpaper #newartwork #scalingup

‘Daisy’ I’m working on varIations of this painting, using colour and looking at different shapes for the petals. I’ll see how far I can take it. I’m also thinking this design will make a good addition to the stationery range and for a print too #rethinkingart #contemporaryartwork #minimalstyle

My sketches from this week. Working in ink and oil crayon, capturing the feeling of just letting the pictures be. Smudges, marks, off centre, imperfect drawings don’t matter, as today they are perfect for me. Have a great weekend #imperfectlyperfect #weeklysketch #ideasonpaper

Cactus a painting I did last week. I seem really drawn to this one and have decided to keep it. Also, this week I have decided to streamline what I paint as most of the time I’m all over the place. I’ll focus on the bold and minimal (said this not so long ago) so will hone my skills towards this way of working for a while and see how it goes. How do you feel about change in your practice, do you embrace it or just won’t go there? #contemporaryart #minimalandbold #bethechangeyouwanttosee
