Every drawing is less about creating an image than about learning to see. Over the years, sketching, making and experimenting with different media have taught me to observe places with patience, curiosity and empathy. These practices continue to shape the way I analyse sites, develop ideas and communicate landscape today.

Before I learned software, I learned to observe how place are experiened, remembered and imaginged.

Sketching allows me to understand proportion, atmosphere and everyday life in ways photography cannot.
