About

My interest in freehand drawing is symbiotic with my career as an architect .

My eye has always led me towards the sometimes incidental relationships between building styles, the adaption and changes that might have occurred over a life of a building, or the small but fascinating details of taste, materials, composition and scale.

My stylistic preference is for face-on architectural vignettes that interpret the everyday and often overlooked built environment.

A majority of the illustrations are predominantly within my locality, however on my travels I am always on the look out for buildings further afield that say something to me. 

Originally from a small village in Sussex, I studied architecture in both Brighton and Edinburgh. I’m married to a Costume Designer, David Wolfe and we live in a 1930’s art deco apartment block near Camberwell, South London. Alongside being an illustrator I run an architectural design practice.
