Faversham Quay Colour Pen & Ink Artwork
Sketch #39 / Book #2 (2022)
Oyster Bay House, an iconic landmark on Faversham Creek, is a testament to the town's rich maritime heritage. Originally constructed in the 19th century, this Grade II listed building was a warehouse for storing Kentish hops, a key ingredient in the brewing industry. Its location on the quay allowed for easy transportation of goods along the River Swale. Over the years, Oyster Bay House has witnessed the ebb and flow of Faversham's fortunes, adapting to the changing tides of industry and trade. Today, it remains a beloved symbol of the town's past, its distinctive silhouette a familiar sight for locals and visitors alike.
This pen and ink artwork captures the essence of Oyster Bay House, highlighting its architectural details and the timeless beauty of its surroundings. A perfect addition to any art collection, it serves as a reminder of Faversham's enduring spirit and the enduring appeal of its historic waterfront.

After extensive research and testing, I have selected the Hahnemuhle German Etching (310gsm) Fine Paper. A heavy-duty paper with a textured finish, a velvety matt surface, and a warm white hue — I believe it reproduces my drawings superbly.
Each giclee art print features the original drawing, which has undergone a meticulous process to capture the detail with the utmost accuracy paying close attention to the texture, details and ink work.
I have personally remastered each drawing digitally to remove the fold from my 2020 sketchbook to give you the best possible view of the original pen and ink drawing.
My original notebook (#1) was cartridge paper in portrait format resulting in the square format. Each page from this notebook had an array of faint grey dots removed carefully from the art print for a better view of the original drawing.
