I’ve been collating the little pastel drawings I did into 2 Khadi handmade paper sketchbooks while I was travelling throught Pakistan and I’ve sprayed them with acrylic fixative to stop the fragile soft pastel from rubbing off the surfaces. I needed to raise some funding for my residency and before I went, I offered sketchbook drawings in return for sponsorship. I was lucky enough to raise what I needed and these little drawings are my thank you to those individuals who helped me.
It was a challenge for me to do all these drawings in such a short time and also to use pastels in this way, in such a small format, but I’m really pleased with the outcome and it’s opened up a new way of working for me. And next week, these little drawings will be winging their way to their new homes along with my thanks 🙂

These look great massed together a pity they could not be exhibited as one, but what a lovely thank you for those that helped. Looking forward to see what else you do in this style. Karen
Thanks. I am going to make a video of them and post it to YouTube so they can stay together that way 🙂
What a great way to fund a project!
It worked and gave me a lot of experience I wouldn’t have had otherwise.
