I started off drawing a figure dancing, I wanted it to be an abstract so I changed the curves for more angular shapes but tried to keep some curvy lines in the drawing as well. I used Faber-Castell ink pens, on watercolour paper.

I've been having serious problems with artistic motivation recently, because I haven't been to an art class for almost a year, and the people there were my support group and encouragement.Anyhow, I lost my mojo again, but managed to find some down the back of the sofa. I wanted to paint, needed to paint, but didn't know what.A Facebook page where people post references came to the rescue. I scanned through, and an image struck me: a weathered and dilapidated hut in death Valley. The lighting

Title or Location: Connected
I drew it during my lunch breaks when I was in my 20s and working at a company called Kaye Dee Marking Solutions Ltd as a Graphic Artist. It was an advert in a magazine that I was really struck by, so decided to try and sketch it. I still have the original. I kept it because I thought it reflected what love should feel like. Two people who mirror each other and feel connected. No idea what the advert was actually for.

Oil sketch, 11?x14?. This is my first attempt with oils after a 38 year career as an exhibit designer. Started with quick turp washes, then built up some detail. I was going to continue, but I kind of like it the way it is. Anxious to start another, and having fun.

Title or Location: Wooden Wave
This piece is acrylic on wood. I used some scrap pieces I had cut from the end of a wooden board I was using. The actual wave and cliff are from where the knot in the board had separated. As soon as I saw it I knew what I was going to do with it. This is two pieces of wood, individually painted and then screwed together. I love upcycling these scraps.

Title or Location: A memorial drawing of George napping with Chris
I originally drew George for Chris a few years ago but after he passed more recently, Chris came to me with a photograph which he said meant a lot to him and asked if I could do a drawing of it. It was a bit of a challenge but I did the best I could with it and when I sent an image of my drawing to Chris he first just replied ?there are no words? but he then came back later with:?wish you had known him Alan and in a strange way it?s like you did. You portray my bond with him like no one else c
