Merry Christmas!

Posted by:

I’m a contemporary artist working in Leicestershire in the UK. I trained in Fine Art using different media including oils and acrylics, but my recent work is a return to my love of drawn media, especially pen, ink, watercolour and pastels. My theme is movement – My subjects are varied from landscape, animals, musicians, dancers and sport, especially cycling. The unifying feature of all these subjects is that they are constantly changing – even in a landscape there is movement everywhere! I capture the energy of elusive moments often starting with a quick pen and ink drawing. I write and publish my artworks on a blog called ‘Racing Lines’.

HI Maxine
I called by to wish you a Happy New Year. My son was looking over my shoulder and was dead impressed by your speed drawings. I look forward to more this year and perhaps taking inspiration from your approach.
Best wishes
Neil

  Hi Neil,
  Thanks for calling by and may I in turn wish you and your son a Happy New Year. I’m looking forward to more drawing too – I can’t wait! I’ve been working on a few ideas that I hope to post soon. Hope you’re drawings are still going well. I thought of your drawings a couple of days ago, as a buzzard flew down to a field right in front of me while I was driving! It was such a beautiful bird, a great subject I think! 🙂
