Pierre Paul Marchini

Posted on August 17, 2013 by Guthlac

Every now and then this whole social media nonsense seems to deliver something interesting (I’m overblowing). Anyway, yesterday a new follower joined me on Twitter (@SimonMarchini if you want to follow me – I think – never quite sure) and turns out he is another Marchini artist. Although I suspect he is more professional than I am ( I just produce my art because I want to without any intention of selling the final result of my work.

So, because my school boy French is none existent I have brushed this through Google translate:

Bonjour Pierre et bienvenue demeure. D’un artiste à l’autre Marchini je vous souhaite bonne chance dans toutes vos entreprises à l’avenir et espérons que vous trouverez quelques-uns des bêtises que j’écris au moins partiellement divertissant.

With that I think I’m off to bed.

You know what happens when you get an idea in your head….well you just have to work at the idea so here is my next iteration of Roxanne.

You don’t have to put on that red light

The other night one of my favourite movies, Roxanne, was on one of the movie channels. I know it is a bit of fluff but nonetheless I think it is actually one of the best movies that Steve Martin has made – the best in my opinion being Bowfinger. Anyway, this morning I just got the urge to sketch Daryl Hannah for no known reason. Perhaps the next the sketch should be Steve Martin…perhaps.

Lithograph of Leicester Castle from West Bridge

Posted on August 15, 2013 by Guthlac
This morning I felt like making a lithograph so I went into Leicester and made this…I’ve called it Leicester Castle from West Bridge and I think it is one of the most accurate and truthful images I’ve ever made*

Different iterations

Posted on August 14, 2013 by Guthlac
Still messing about with free phot apps on the iPhone/iPad. This little beauty was created using the following apps:

KitCam, Lens Light & Wordfoto on the iPhone and
Brushes & Photoshop Express on the iPad.

I really have no idea what this all means but I think the final result is QI.

Got a new toy…

Yesterday there was a free photo app on iTunes called Lenslight and so I just couldn’t resist the temptation. Only had a quick play around this morning but it certainly looks like fun.

She drives me crazy

First time on an exercise since I did my hip and all things seemed to be OK. As for the painting it is slowly developing nicely.
