An evening spent pottering about with a repeating pattern design based o eucalyptus blooms and leaves. I like the way it becomes striped from a distance, and the seamless join.










Study Late night tinkering on the modern ‘Etch-a-sketch’… aka the iPad Pro. Study in symmetry and selective asymmetry…

I’ve been working on this project for some weeks, and there are still some vital elements to add, but I thought people might enjoy seeing it’s evolution over time. Will post the finished worked when it’s done.











Coming along – might need a bit more work yet…


On the evidence of this enamel Mercedes Benz advertisement, I’d tend to say yes. I think the key elements here are: the use of small capitals, a high x-height, curves that are (or appear to be) segments of a true circle and the high mid-bars of the ‘e’s. I also think I can see small rounded corners… or is that just a by-product of the enamelling process.

The results of trying some digital filters on my painting of the London, Brighton & South Coast Railway ‘Atlantic’ Locomotive “Beachy Head”. The painting was done digitally using the Art Set IV Application, an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil. Above is the original painting. Below are the filtered results, mostly using JixiPics’ filter applications. It’s a simple approach to making alternate images, and has to be applied carefully, but never the less, I rather like some of these!
