My latest work The Conan Doyle pub in Edinburgh. Thought a drawing of a pub would be in order to go with some of the pub signs I have done.

The start of a big drawing. Been wanting to do something involving the movie statues in Leicester Square for a while now. Been planning it out and started with the street sign hoping my maths is right and I can fit them all in around it.

As always it was impressive sight watching the red arrows flying over the city yesterday. Thought I would add them to my castle and tattoo drawing.

As it’s national Lighthouse day here’s Edinburgh’s most famous one for this week’s Thursday throwback. The historic lighthouse was built in 1869 sits at the often windswept harbour of newhaven. A popular #Edinburgh attraction it’s a great place to visit for a walk and have some fish and chips.

A Thursday throwback of my popular old town print as the madness of the Edinburgh festival is about to begin and the city comes alive. Whether you’re here the comedy, the chaos, or just soaking up the atmosphere there’s no place quite like Edinburgh in August.
