DIARY
This won't be so much of a diary, it's more likely to be a collection of odd musings and witterings on a variety of topics and issues that might spill out ocassionally from a "grumpy old man" or just me opening up, but it's pretty much inoffensive stuff.........I hope.
The reasons as to how and why I wanted something like this built into this site is described in the first entry made a few years ago now, maybe I should have stuck to the original idea and called this Bono's Hat rather than simply, Diary...My later entries explain why it didn't change...... At times I may be a gobby bloke from Bermondsey but I certainly ain't rich enough yet to have the arse sued off of me by Messrs U2.
I had hoped that a few other friends would also contribute the odd piece along the way to liven things up, provide a laugh or just comment on those things that happen along the way to make you ask the question, why, but they now seem to have gone off and done their own blogs!
Feel free to mail me if you want to take issue on any point or simply want to join in.

Update sketches
Date: 2011-06-12 19:39:17
A new piece in the 'work' section of a sketch based on a Dodson sketch [top one on the right] and a few pieces in the 'sketchbook' section.
Most of the sketchbook pieces are very rough, roughs.
The second one [on the right] was an old trial piece, using markers and coloured pencils that didn't really work;
The third is a rough that I was working on as an idea to accompany the other pieces under the 'the girl who...' banner.
The last one is a coloured pencil sketch that might make it into a revamped image sometime in the future either as a stand alone figure or as part of a bigger composition.
The final one that's been uploaded to the sketchbook pages, [not shown on the right], 'Sylkie', is based on a Huerta sketch, which I 'buggered up' quite a bit in the face.
