They are heritage and listed buildings and I have restored them to their former glory through a combination of visualisation and digital art.<\/p>\n<p>I find myself getting upset when I visit towns and cities and see buildings becoming dirty, tatty and neglected. So for me, this venture is therapeutic, and it makes me happy to see buildings lovingly restored, in my work, as the architect would have intended them to look. I have been told my illustrations are uplifting. Can you imagine if these beautiful buildings looked like this in real life? My latest illustrations feature 15 Charles Holden\u2019s Art Deco Tube Stations \u2013 from Acton through to Northfields.<\/p>\n<p>When I am not drawing Art Deco buildings, I design visual branding and make people and businesses look their best. I have been a creative graphic designer for 30 years and Chartered Marketer for 10 years, and have worked with Suzuki GB Plc and Stagecoach Group PLC. In 2016, there were over 200 beautiful and sustainable buses driving around the UK sporting my livery design. You can read more about my brand design, at The Brand Surgery here.<\/p>\n<p>If you know of a building that would look great in my style of digital illustration, please contact me. I\u2019d love to hear from you. I accept commissions and if the illustration of your building would look good in my green online shop, I can offer you a lower commission rate, as long as you don\u2019t mind me selling unlimited prints afterwards. You will always receive the first print and certificate of authentication to say yours is the first copy.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-676474\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt1-615x769.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"769\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt1-615x769.jpg 615w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt1-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt1-1229x1536.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt1-1024x1280.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt1.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 615px) 100vw, 615px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-676475\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt2-615x635.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"635\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt2-615x635.jpg 615w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt2-768x793.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt2.jpg 969w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 615px) 100vw, 615px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-676476\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt3-615x769.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"769\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt3-615x769.jpg 615w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt3-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt3-1229x1536.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt3-1024x1280.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt3.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 615px) 100vw, 615px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-676477\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt4-615x616.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"616\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt4-615x616.jpg 615w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt4-55x55.jpg 55w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt4-768x769.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt4-144x144.jpg 144w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt4-350x350.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt4.jpg 999w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 615px) 100vw, 615px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-676478\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt5.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"889\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-676479\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt6-615x820.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"820\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt6-615x820.jpg 615w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/yt6.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 615px) 100vw, 615px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RESTORING HERITAGE ART DECO &amp;
