Sketchbook Commissions:

‘Interconnected and Interdependent’

Many of the pages you see in my sketchbooks are quiet explorations of colour, memory and landscape. Some remain as studies, while others become the starting point for larger original works.

I’m drawn to the idea that we are all interconnected and interdependent—with nature, with one another, and with the stories we create. This collection reflects those relationships through intuitive mark-making, layered textures and an evolving sense of place.

If a particular sketchbook page resonates with you, I would be delighted to create a bespoke commissioned artwork inspired by its atmosphere, palette and feeling. Rather than producing an exact copy, each commission is developed intuitively, resulting in a unique original created especially for you.

Whether you’re drawn to soft blues, earthy greens, gentle ochres or expressive marks, together we can create a piece that feels personal and at home in your space.

If you would like to enquire about a sketchbook commission—or discuss a completely bespoke piece—please get in touch using the contact form, send me a direct message, or email [email protected].

Thank you for visiting my work. I look forward to hearing from you and creating something meaningful together.

Warm wishes,
Ails McGee
