Here’s the story – the last two years

I have a great but demanding day job and passionate about art. The job takes me all over the world* sometimes the travel takes some of the weekend away and what with one thing and another there’s little time to paint.

So the idea of drawing becomes the major outlet for the creative side of my life.

The recent books build on a habit established some twenty years back; when we go on holiday and I aim to fill a book across two weeks.

 

A gallery of travel drawings is at the foot of this page

The entire ‘collection’ to date adds up to some 3,000 drawings.

Travel is a privilege, professionally and personally. The places I visit and the people I meet and the parts of a city they take me to are always interesting.

Drawing means getting up 30 minutes earlier to catch the sunrise on the side of a building in Saõ Paulo, sneaking the book out of my bag at the dinner table or grabbing a quick sketch in the departure lounge (often the delay lounge).

The books take on a life of their own
and one is always with me, just in case.
