Seeing London for the first time made me wish my full-time job was location sketching. The city just draws itself. Here are some sketchbook pages so far, fountain pen and ink wash mainly, more to come.

OWEN I hope you are having the best time ever in London, and taking care of my Amy.

I am so so so impressed with the manner in which your work has evolved in the years since I've known you. I am really excited to see more of London's influence in your art while you are there.

You should take a stroll through Hyde Park...I'm sure you'll find some interesting things to sketch. The Serpentine is very scenic, in an urban oasis sort of way. :)

Ah I had no idea you were going to London! Its a great place for artists the mix of old and new from different style periods and the architecture is phanominal!

I hope you enjoy every minute of it, dont forget to check out some of the museums too especially the British museum for all the cool statues! . . . damn it now i want to go drawing in london again!
