... Jeremy Harding: The Immigration Battle - A young, personable man who speaks fair English, Hamraz had been in Dunkirk for about a month when we met. He was a member of the Afghan National Army, from the district of Azra, south-east of Kabul. Early in 2011, going home on leave, he was called to account by local Taliban as a collaborator and told he would have to take part in a car-bomb attack on a nearby hospital if he wanted to redeem himself. He couldn?t return to his regiment without p... Jenny Diski: The Me Who Knew It - I was in my late thirties before it struck me that there was something odd about the tableau I have in my mind of a familiar living-room, armchair, my father in it, silvery hair, moustache, brown suede lace-ups, and me, aged six or so, sitting on his knee. The layout is correct ? I have been back to the block of flats and sat in the living-room of the flat next door, with the same floor plan. Door in the right place; chair I?m sure accurate, a bu... Perry Anderson: Sino-Americana - Books about China, popular and scholarly, continue to pour off the presses. In this ever expanding literature, there is a subdivision that could be entitled ?Under Western Eyes?. The larger part of it consists of works that appear to be about China, or some figure or topic from China, but whose real frame of reference, determining the optic, is the United States. Typically written by functionaries of the state, co-opted or career, they have as th... Andrew O?Hagan: At the Olympic Park - Alfred Dickens, the novelist?s brother, wrote a General Board of Health report on the area soon to be occupied by the Olympic athletes, recording that ?the cholera raged? and there was ?neither drainage nor paving? ? ?in winter the streets were impassable.?

Explore Creative Ideas With Collage - Thumbnail sketching and drawing are time-honored ways to test out ideas, but sometimes you want to pump up the visual volume without spending hours drawing fine detail. And sometimes you want to test a composition by throwing things together and seeing what works - in both of these cases, collage can be a fast and effective tool for developing creative ideas. It is also an art form in its own right, where an artist can re-interpret or 'remix' exi... Portrait Drawing Projects - Faces are probably the most popular subject among Drawing/Sketching readers. The human face is certainly interesting to draw, with so many possibilities for exploring unique characters and expressing emotion though drawing. It's important to think about your whole composition - too often we see very bland, central, symmetrical composition in portrait drawing. Sure, it can work, but it's also a missed opportunity - how you arrange your subject on ... Draw a Wolf - Take your animal drawing to the next level with this tutorial by Michael Hames. Using a painted surface as a 'support' or background for the drawing lets you develop a beautifully expressive texture. You can use Michae's techniques on plain paper of course, but do consider trying a painted ground. It gives you a robust surface to work with, yet also allows for much finer control of tonal values. You can use this lesson to inspire your approach t... Thumbnail Sketching - Thumbnail sketching is basically doing very small, usually linear-but they can be shaded, or in simple blocked tone - sketches. A thumbnail sketch is often enclosed within a rough frame, so that you are laying out a small, complete composition. This is a great way to experiment with various compositions or arrangements. Its also a good way to ensure that you consider the entire picture - too often we tend to 'float' the central object of interes...

... Les Très Riches Heures de Mrs Mole - With the passing of Ronald Searle this week, the world lost another great creative spirit. His name has been echoing around social media all week, but I didn't feel that I had anything worthy to say about him. Until I discovered this recent publication: Les Très Riches Heures de Mrs Mole.

A Creative 2012 - For me, creative work is a lifeline. And ironically, whenever I get really busy, I seem to have more ideas! I've started a university degree, and I find that even though I'm busy keeping up with study and assignments, the new knowledge and mental work are inspiring my creativity. So my creative resolution for this New Year is to make sure that I set aside time to get those ideas onto paper, and keep my sketchbook to hand.

It wasn't an abstract philosophical question, but one driven by dissatisfaction with a college course that seemed to focus on a particular style of abstract expressionism and left the reader feeling a kind of hatred for art. We talked around a few of the issues; at first I wondered if it was because of disillusionment - the art process was no longer the mysterious secret 'gift' that p...
