Collections for particular topics, often completed in a particular calendar year. The 2023 project was all about False Bay.

Sketchbook
Work produced in the field or the studio, usually at a smaller scale, usually at a blissfully leisurely pace but now and again with timing down to minutes to spare. Each watercolour representing a small adventure.
There are some favourite places like The Pipe, Helderberg Peak and Ladybrand Road (S708). I also present work from a six year project of painting one watercolour a day.

Sketchbook Print Packs
So many of the sketchbook paintings are smaller and lend themselves to “wall hangings” – framing well and grouping the prints on your wall.
