Following a successful career in graphic design & advertising, Shaun Forward is a fine art painter, urban sketcher & printmaker, located in Dorset, UK.
An active member of several arts societies, his current main focus is leading tutored ‘outdoor sketchbooking workshops’ – brining the art of Urban Sketching and his passion for sketchbooking, to a wider audience.
Shaun also spends much of his time either in his purpose-built garden studio or preferably, producing work en plein air in the Dorset landscape or along its wonderful coastline.
