I travel half the year exploring, sketching and painting throughout the world. When travelling, I work mainly in sketchbooks, representationally, in ink and watercolour. In my home studio I paint abstractly in watercolour or oil. I teach several live workshops each year in Wales, focusing on the joy of colour, fun sketching techniques and training your eyes to observe. Workshop students receive free access to several of my online courses to reinforce what I teach in the workshops.
