The not so Quiet Zone

Ultimate Social Sterotype old fart.
Almost painful to listen to. Urgh.

Beautiful Amazonian-looking girl with hair even longer than mine. 
And she wore it better.

And sometimes, the most captivating subjects won't. sit. STILL.

You know you've grown up too much when you get the train back from the Isle of Wight with Bestival goers, and choose the Quiet Zone carriage to escape the gurning come-downs and Instagrammers. 

Sweet William

 

These are a few drawings I did this Summer of William. Gosh he's sweet.

Matilda

A drawing of Matilda, and some supporting scribbles.

She is really sweet.

Swapped, for Oil

I sold a drawing today. Well, I swapped it. For a tank of oil.

What a glamorous life I lead.

It's my blog profile picture.

Fellow Travellers

I went up to London for Easter and as I got on the train in the remotest of Welsh stations, I realised I'd forgotten my laptop, iPod and book. Urgh. In fact, over five hours of urgh. So I surreptitiously sketched some of my fellow travellers when I thought they were't looking. Please take into account that they all seemed to have ants in their pants and didn't sit still, and the jiggliness of the train (especially the Welsh Arriva line).

This man lady (left) scurried on and smelt of curry 

& this lady (right) manically chewed gum (but sweetly pointed out I'd dropped my headphones)

I peeked between the seats to sketch this voluptuous Indian girl

clutching her Louis Vuitton handbag at Birmingham.

The man (left) was terrified of missing his stop

& this lady (right) on the way back to Wales had an enchanting bull terrier at her feet.
