Drawings

I love to draw – always have & it is very much part of my process designing gardens. Creating illustrations for clients enables them to see what I am proposing & of course my plans are necessary for construction. Clients often frame my drawings & are generally very flattering. I received this the other day…

“It was lovely to see you last week and to see your amazing designs. Honestly, you’re such a talent and we can’t stop looking at your beautiful drawings!” Mark

I’ve recently been asked if I sell my drawings. I haven’t ever considered it but on reflection of course I would & if you would like me to draw your house & garden just give me a shout! You can reach me on 07753 639768.

Here are a few examples…

I work with a surveyor to ensure accuracy & CAD if need be, but as I’ve always loved drawing, it’s my preferred method.

These images give you a taste of what I produce – generally it is a series of sketches together with large scale accurate drawings for contractors to work from.
