Pages From a Sketchbook

I rarely use a sketchbook in my art practice. The world around me is the inspiration for my art, so the real world can act as a sketchbook. Ideas can form in my mind when I notice something to paint, it's as if life itself is whispering to my imagination. But there have been times when I've done a few drawings in a sketchbook and here are a few of them. Mostly done in biro and from life, most of the sketches have remained just that, although on occasions I've used a small sketch to confirm what an idea might look like in material form.
