About the sketchbooks
(2012)
by
Roger Beale
For thirty years I have travelled with an A5 sketchbook, a pen and Windsor and Newton folding water colour set. I draw in meetings, at airports, in galleries and when I have a little time to myself. Sometimes I can paint on the spot - sometimes that happens in the hotel room. These books also contain notes of meetings - including some with President Chirac and Premier Wen Ji Bao - as well as drawings made at the World Summit in Johannesburg in 2002.
