The illustrator who takes you places – in pictures

Illustrator and pattern designer Angela Mckay loves to travel, and sketching is her way to encapsulate the new places she visits. “I try to work in situ, because painting outside forces me to be quicker than normal, to capture everything without focusing on small details ” she says.
