Design, creative direction, sketching and a curious mind
I’m the latest artist up at The Trampery on the Gantry, a creative workspace in London’s Olympic Park, with a show of textile pieces, drawings and prints. Open to Gantry members and guests. #eastlondonart #illustrator #mixedmedia #sketcher #e15
