Reykjavík Sketcher

sharing the world around me one sketch at a time

 

As an architect passionate about hand drawing, it’s natural for me to sketch and record my travels and surroundings. The idea of the ‘Reykjavík Sketcher’ came about as I wandered around downtown Reykjavík, sketching the houses one evening while I waited for my husband, Ingimar, to finish work. Later, I posted my drawings on Instagram, and people started to comment and interact - sometimes letting me know who lived in a house I’d drawn. Over time, my feed became an online sketchbook - a digital exhibition - and I started selling work and offering commissions.
