77 Sunflower Strip No 1. Pen and ink drawing on paper.

‘77 Sunflower Strip’
pen and brushed ink on paper
16” x 12”

This drawing, the first in my 77 Sunflower Strip series, will be on show at the Ty Pawb open exhibition in Wrexham from November 14th 2026 until February 27th 2027.
Sunflowers were spectacularly successful in our back garden this summer. As we live at Number 77 and one of my favourite tv shows
years ago was ‘77 Sunset Strip’, the title of this collection of drawings could only be one thing.

 

Christmas Cactus 26. Pen and ink drawing on paper.

This 13” x 12” pen and ink drawing is this year’s first in my seasonal Christmas Cactus studies.

In the early 1970s I drew player portraits for WBA’s Albion News’ ‘Sketchbook’ feature. In 1978 the Birmingham Sports Argus printed an FA cup semi final special for WBA v Ipswich Town; I was commissioned to illustrate a piece highlighting the clash of the two great centre forwards,
Cyrille Regis and Paul Mariner.


These pieces are printed on best quality fine art paper in limited editions of ten. They are unframed but are hinged window mounted using white, acid free board and designed to accommodate standard frame sizes; space is available for short, personalised messages and each print will be signed and numbered individually.
