The Rokeby Distance Drawing Course

I’m so thrilled to announce the launch of a new project, The Rokeby Distance Drawing Course!

As Artist and Residence at the Rokeby Museum, I am developing a new series of work that explores, activates, and shares the letters from a 19th century drawing course and the artistic journey of its student – a young woman who went on to become a pioneering female illustrator.
