30th May - 10th June, 2023
30th May - 10th June, 2023
Published: 11 June 2023
The publication includes over 140 drawings from artists who have taken part in Drawing is Free portrait sessions from around the world, 2013 - present day.
This celebration and publicaton was possible with the support of the following people.
With thanks to: Kim Plowright, Sarah Praill, Anita Taylor and Drawing Projects UK, Jake Spicer, Ayda Girma, Lillian Davies, Linda Jarvin, Joe Johnson, Gaetano Cunsulo, Ofir Darki, Verena Thompson, Alok Rajoo, Tarun Kumar, Hélène Fromen, Ioi Choi
To all the amazing people who draw with me every Monday and to my Patreon community.
And to Tom and Jackson Boothe who share their living room with over 100 people every week and without whose love and support this would not be possible.
This celebration is in memory of the passionate educator Joe Woodhouse who gave me the first invitation to share the Drawing is Free project with a wider audience. His enthusiasm and support gave me so much.
And to Margarete Najar whose poise and elegant presence was an inspiration to learn from and to draw.
