Swanage to Shell Bay sketchbook walk

Painter | Urban Sketcher | Printmaker

Sketchbooking is becoming something of a passion of mine! I just love the portability of minimal kit and being able to draw from life absolutely anywhere – and to do it so spontaneously.

I had a brilliant sketch walk last Tuesday! I caught the open top Breezer bus from Canford Cliffs to Swanage and walked back to the chain ferry – up over Ballard Down, Old Harry Rocks, Studland beaches and Shell Bay – making 17 sketches along the way! I’d just purchased a new SeaWhite of Brighton pocket-sized concertina sketchbook with 38 sides, I certainly didn’t expect to fill the whole book!

Thank you to the amazing pet portrait artist @commissionsbychloe for snapping some vid on the hill – nice to bump in to you. And to Ally and Chloe @thesandysaltpig for charging my dead phone whilst I enjoyed a coffee and cake!) #sketchbooking @loveswanage #swanagepier #swanagebeach #ballarddown #studlandbeach #southbeachstudland #shellbay
