In Sketchbook, Sketching, Sketching On Holiday•July 22, 2020•1 Minutes

I love everything in this book!

Dougal Matthews Dougal Matthews

When I went on safari in Kenya last year I took two luxury sketchbooks with me and filled them up!

When I returned I showed an artist friend of mine.
She loved flicking through the pages and looking at the sketches and watercolour paintings inside. Her young son, also a budding artist got so inspired when he saw my books she begged me to create a printed version.
​
I was leading up to my solo show, “Into Africa” and I simply didn’t have time. But she suggested that I created a printed version that was completely unedited. Basically like a deluxe photocopy of all of both my sketchbooks put together!

 Great idea!
So I created my Africa sketchbook.

When they saw the exhibition they loved finding the sketches which had provided me with the inspiration for my larger oil paintings.
​If you’ve ever been on safari, or if you ever wanted to keep a sketchbook, this is for you.
​It is packed with full colour images from my travels,  a lovely mix of animals, landscapes and moody skies to keep you inspired and bring you joy.


The only places you can buy it from is Fisherton Mill in Salisbury or right here on my website.
I know you’re longing to flick through it like you would in a bookshop, so here’s a little video to help you make up your mind!
