You can now pick up a copy of my Kerala Sketchbook on my new ETSY store here.
Drawn over two weeks of travel sketching historic Fort Kochi on the Arabian Sea to
caparisoned (love that term!) elephants and a sketching festival in Thrissur at the largest festival in Asia, to sub-alpine tea plantations and colonial bungalows in Munnar, and to Kumarakom where canal life flourishes.
All sketched on location in 45°C heat while surrounded by a crowd of onlookers – coming from sparsely populated New Zealand I needed to quickly reset my idea of personal space!
This 56 page book contains 45 sketches painted in my signature gouache and kraft paper style. Here are a few preview images...
