James Higgins: Sketch pad

Black pen and coloured pencils. Prejama Castle. Slovania. You won't believe how the Baron of this place died. 1996
One of the grape fields outside Volney near Beaune 1996. Vine yard is just too romantic a word when you think about the reality of picking grapes all day. In the end though, it was a great experience. Black pen and coloured pencils, and a very sore back.
The Nooksack River. Washington State. USA. Watercolours. We probably went to The North Fork Brewery for a pizza afterwards.
Yup. Nice place. The cascades. (Oil sticks).
Roland with a pumpkin on his head. His motorbike was a Zuccini 350cc. (Pencil sketch) Wisconsin.
colour pencil. Holly's dog, Dancer. Connecticut
Pencil sketch. Bird of prey by the gas station. Fairhaven Parkway.
The vielle prison in Annecy. Colour pencils.
Bird Box and Dog near Madison WI. Pencil.
Big Skull. Charcoal 2006
Paddy Joe in Brookdorf Germany 1995. Andy and Nina had a bar next door. We used to cycle there along the Danube and get hammered (Brookdorfed). Let's not mince words. Colour pencils.
Pruffeninger Schloss. This was a semi abandoned palace estate on the edge of Regensburg, Germany. Great place to walk the dog. There was a beer garden too. Felt tipped pens.
Bad Abbach. Where Huk was born.
Paddy's dog, Meg. Charcoal.
Vaucoleurs (spelling?) Hitched through in 85. Everyone we met was talking about some guy called John Dark. Took me a while to figure they meant Joan of Arc (Joan D'Arc).
La Loge. Winter of 95/96. oil pastels.
Slovania 1996. Natural Bridge. Oil crayons.
Ostentor Regensburg. Ostengasse was certainly a street with character in the 1990s. You never knew who you'd meet in the gutter.
Blue pen. Coiranne. Hitching East out of Lyon. got stuck here all day. Nothing but a farm and a signpost. T'was nice to get out of Lyon though. Late Summer 1985
Hil and Huk in Sweden 95. Pencil
