Walking and Mapping Wolverhampton (Offsite9)

I am an artist and arts in health facilitator based in the West Midlands, with a studio on the back of Wolverhampton Art Gallery. I graduated from a Masters in Fine Art from The Glasgow School of Art in 2016 and specialise in drawing. Since this time I have continued to draw as well as walk, and am currently combining both of these passions (which often results in long distance hikes). I'm an avid collector of Ordnance Survey maps, and would love to get others out and about walking and drawing!
