Cupar Arts Eden started last Saturday and finished today, showcasing a hotbed of talent throughout Fife with a relaxed and friendly vibe.  Mixing it up, adding non-observational elements to drawings. If you would like to read about how I both flooded my kitchen and had a fire in it, visit The Weekly on my illustration site Binky McKee.    Three drawings this week: a Peruvian gourd which rattles when shaken, an enamel doggy box which is partner to the one I drew last week, and a depiction of the inside of a favourite bowl, but flattened out. I worked by turning the bowl in my hand and allowing the pattern to run straight in my drawing.
 A week of rather dismal weather kept me indoors most days, so I decided to draw some of my favourite objects around the house. I discovered it is really hard to draw toys! Here are two Peruvian dolls my friend brought back for me from a stay in Peru, a little enamel box painted with a charming Spaniel, the most adorable little loved-up 1950s Merrythought bear (with bells in his ears!), and carved and painted wooden cats and a dog which sit on a shelf with their legs hanging over the edge. I hope you enjoy my shared treasures! Thanks for visiting, see you next week! |

I work a LOT in sketchbooks and always have several on the go. My dad was an architect and naval draughtsman, and after he died in 2017 I found heaps of old templates while clearing out his study. Always having been an avid collector of shapes, at the beginning of this year I bought a WHSmith A5 diary to use as a sketchbook specifically for work based on them.

As well as the work you see here, I illustrate under the name of Binky McKee (my mother's maiden name was McKee, Binky was every single one of my great grandmother's many cats!)
