Wednesday, 30 January 2019

well its been a bloody long time since I posted on my blog but finally Ive started again.

Since 2017 Ive had quite a 2018 (finally retired in March with a nice redundancy package and really got into the garden with wifey. Adjusting to retirement was pretty easy but I found I had so much to do that drawing and posting here took a big back seat.

I DID keep drawing and painting tho and Ill post up some of the pictures in my next post. A LOT of time was spent on some ship painting commissions (HMNZS Canterbury, Wellington and Southland) plus some mundane cars for a dentist (Jeep, Spitfire and Karmann Ghia) but I squeezed in a few race cars, one in particular (the Murphy Commodore at Bathurst sold so well that Ive started another 'modern' racer.. the Scott McLaughlin Volvo.


and Ive also discovered a new drawing partner (I hope). Will Pike should be taking over from Warwick on sundays soon. He's a Liverpool football supporter so will be drawing soccer players for a start. Warwick has pretty well retired to Paraparaumu now so finds it difficult to draw and impossible to get to my place sundays. He seems to be concentrating on digital montages celebrating holidays but has produced a stunning Fokker DR1 picture with those same skills which Ill post here soon also.

anyway.. time to go now.. more later.
