this was one of the drawings I produced while watching one of my favourite musicians live in my home town, Duke Special is a Northern Irish artist who this summer decided to do quite a lot of spontaneous busking sessions in Belfast during the summer months, he would give us a days notice and we would travel down and he would be there with his own modified portable piano (shown in the drawing ) which we would move around Belfast as he walked around performing in outdoor locations such as local tourist attractions, streets and parks before heading to the Ulster Hall where he would perform a few of his songs with a slightly more sophisticated piano , as his own portable one can only play a few octaves. He is a very interesting subject to draw as he is incredibly theatrical and flamboyant and a very willing subject for photographs and drawings .
The other two drawings are from a summer sketchbook
