BLOOMIN’ THORNTON HEATH

In Bloom, Thornton Heath

The Thornton Heath Community Action Team aka THCAT, held the annual ‘In Bloom’ Garden competition, which basically judges the best looking garden in different categories of Business, Concrete Space, Front Garden and Children in the Thornton Heath area…something which I may have dismissed before, but actually really appreciate since noticing more and more flower activity popping up in random places during my daily boppage around the area.…

Picasso 1932 : Love, Fame, Tragedy – TATE

Girl Before A Mirror, Picasso Sketch Tate, PINS©

I love art. The more I sketch, the more i’m seeing, what lies within, the canvas, the surface, the form, the shape, everything…plus, anything which gets you off ya phone and more in the zone, is a good thing!

Popped down to Tate Modern to check out the Pablo Picasso exhibition, featuring more than 100 paintings, sculptures and drawings, mixed with family photographs and personal life bits.…

MUSEUM OF CROYDON / CROYDON ART COLLECTION

#PINSDOODLES – NEW YORK

NEW YORK SKETCH PINS ARTIST

So over the past two months or so i’ve had the crazy urge to sketch moments as oppose to taking pictures, although I still actively do that too, it’s just being able to sketch anywhere there and then, biro to hand, sketchbook ready, feels super organic and totally in flow with my whole vibe of connecting and engaging through my art…plus as my normal canvas work is a tad more polished and controlled, sketching allowed me to free up a bit and get a bit more loose with it.…
