Woman in Red Dress

This has been one of the most depressing days I can remember in a long time and just to add to my sense of depression I have read some of comments on FB.  I really must live in another world.  Perhaps tomorrow will be better – I doubt it.

We must rediscover the humanity of 1945 | The Times

Posted on September 3, 2015 by Guthlac

I know I’m seen by some as a soft hearted liberal and if so good but we really do need to start to remember that these are people not ‘swarms’ and that that poor toddler found on the beach in Turkey is only one of thousands. I wish I could say that the British government was showing leadership but wishing is about all they’re doing…wishing this would all stay the other side of the Channel…it won’t.

Some days it really saddens me to be a human being.

I’ve shared this article from The Times for you to read:

Am I getting a bit of a prude?

Posted on August 30, 2015 by Guthlac

Girl in Black Shorts

This is inspired on an illustration/print by the Russian artist Anton Marrast.  In his version the woman was nude and so was showing her genitals which I didn’t feel comfortable drawing.    I am not sure why I had this reticences and I hope I am not becoming a bit of a prude but it just didn’t seem to work for me so instead I added some black shorts which I think changes the whole image to something I find more interesting.
