Follow the link below which will take you to Google Maps, switch to Street View… and have a wander. You’ll find yourself near the beautiful coastline around Whitsand Bay in South Cornwall with dramatic cliffs, winding roads, sea stretching out forever. On a clear day the light is just magic. ✨ ✏️ What to look for - The curve of the coastline - Clifftop grasses moving in the wind - Texture in the rock faces - Tiny details like fences, signs, pathways - The horizon line where sea meets sky Remember you don’t have to stay in the exact spot you’ve landed in go and have a stroll ❤️ You could: - Do a loose 5 minute line sketch - Focus just on the shapes of the cliffs - Study the tones of sea and sky - Zoom right in and draw a single detail - You could write a poem about how it makes you feel. - Write a small piece of music if that’s your jam. And remember… It doesn’t have to be perfect. It just has to be yours. Starting local to me feels grounding. Before we hop across oceans, I want to honour my own shoreline first. I am so excited for you to go exploring ! The pics below are my interpretations of this place and I’ve done a few so you can see the variety. Passports ready? See you in Street View 🌍✏️ https://maps.app.goo.gl/RHBmhxcchFKywsn39?g_st=ic

I have been quietly working on something very close to my heart. A small monthly print club where original artwork travels through the post and arrives gently at your door. Each envelope will hold a signed print and a few thoughtful extras, wrapped with care from my studio. It is my way of sharing affordable art and a little moment of calm each month. If it feels like something you would like to be part of, you can join the founding members list below. Founding members will receive this at a reduced cost of £12.99 per month as a thank you for supporting me early on. I will be adding a payment system here on Skool and will let you know when it’s up and running. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScUnjmGX1a8Llyh5XddOLZlxby9zX8t0z1seZjbCsEIh2umBg/viewform?usp=header Post will go out on the first of every month ;-) Thank you for supporting this little dream of mine. It truly means more than you know. Kate
