2020 The year

2020 is at the beginning of the year which hopefully is going to be fabulous.  I have lots of ideas floating around with new drawings of a different style alongside some new maps.  Connecting with nature, the past and present making our journey memorable with our #memorymaps of which I usually add one or two more each year as we discover new waterways.  2019 saw the London Waterways Map come into print, this year we are hoping to travel down the Oxford Canal and onto the Thames during the summer, thus making our way once more through London.

The new maps will have a Steampunk twist to them, alongside some steampunk birds which have already begun to take a little shape.  The journey continues to take its twist and turns just like it has done from the beginning.

The Waterways of London, Rivers and Canals 2019

We hope to see you along the way once our plans which often are quite loose plans, come into being.

We love to meet the boats we read about.

Canal Art Exhibition 2018

18th March – 14th April 2018  10am to 5pm daily –  Audlem Mill Limited, The Wharf, AUDLEM, Cheshire CW3 0DX

What’s On! Where we are today!  I have 4 Illustrated maps in the Canal Art Exhibition at Audlem Mill over this Easter.  It runs daily with the exception of the 23rd of March : noted closed for the day.  Over the last two years I have been adding to an ever increasing collection of my illustrated maps.  They feature history alongside our journey thus marking the extent of where we have been.

As a travelling artist, I am making a story of where we have been, it is a small selection of the routes we have made from Birmingham to Liverpool each one has their own journey to show.

It is the first exhibition of the year with the Guild of Waterway Artists, and the first time showing of some new maps.  The maps are Illustrated drawings, framed and are of varying sizes.  All are for sale at Audlem Mill over the Easter period.

Over the year there will be new additions with some wildlife versions, if you keep an eye on my facebook page or my diary dates for new venues as they unfold.
