I started my urban sketching journey in 2018, when a friend showed it to me. I love the looseness and effect of applying ink and watercolour wash directly onto the paper, never using pencil and ruler - such a change from the years of rigour and straight lines in my earlier accounting career!
I am self-taught in art, not having done any since school, mainly picking up tips by chatting with and watching artists far better than me.
I’m lucky to live in Farnham, which gives me loads of inspiration and subject matter for my sketches. I do travel elsewhere though, sketching as I go, and am also happy to take commissions.
