During the recent heat wave our cat hardly spoke to us. He moped around the garden, hiding in the flowerbeds. In the evenings, he didn’t come in for his daily five minutes sitting on my lap. The day the weather broke he ran away from me, tearing over the garden fence, as if I was an ogre.
The next day it was cooler, and he nagged me all day, climbing onto my lap and sleeping on the floor by the studio door.
What was that all about?
I tried to take a selfie with him, to put on instagram, because that’s what you do, right? But the way I held him to face the camera looked like I was strangling him and I looked like a total muppet! Then I thought, “why not draw it instead, and use my alter ego, Benni, to play myself?”
I can never get a selfie to look the way I want it to, so maybe I have stumbled across the answer. Turn the moment into a story!
Last week I was working in the Awen Library area. It was so hot, after I’d finished, it seemed like a good idea to visit the beach in Porthcawl.
It was blisteringly hot. I managed to find enough shade, behind the sea wall, to keep my feet from burning and started sketching the people on the beach.
The sand slowed them down, and the slope of the beach added to their general weariness at the ned of the day, gave everyone a tired, leaning forward weariness, as they trudged back and forth to get their ice creams or wend their way back to the car park.
It took about 40 mins to draw them all.
