A6 Sketchbooks

I always carry an A6 "pocket size" sketchbook with me whenever I am out and about. It is a very important part of my life as an artist. I don't feel I've fully experienced a place unless I've drawn it.  In a meditational sense drawing encourages stillness and quiet observation noticing the details that would otherwise go unnoticed. I generally fill one book a year so looking at the pile pictured below that's about fifteen years worth!

2020

The pages below are from my 2020 sketchbook and are almost all taken from local beaches because I didn't leave the County for a whole year. I can't grumble there are worse places to be locked down and besides I got to know the local area in much greater detail!
