Following a successful career in graphic design & advertising, Shaun Forward is an urban sketcher, fine art painter & printmaker, based in Dorset, UK.
An active member of several arts societies, his current main focus is leading tutored ‘outdoor sketchbooking workshops’ – brining the art of Urban Sketching and his passion for sketchbooking, to a wider audience.
Shaun also spends much of his time either in his purpose-built garden studio or preferably, producing work en plein air in the Dorset landscape or along its wonderful coastline.
