TOM OAKLEY


A visit to Ely Cathedral way back in 1949 inspired me to start detailed cathedral drawings in pen and ink.

42 years later when faced with retirement I took up watercolour painting, gaining experience by joining a village art club.  Detailed pencil work is still my favourite medium and can often be used in conjunction with watercolour wash.

Subjects:  landscapes and estuary scenes in watercolour, architectural work in pencil, also steam locomotives, ships and aircraft which lend themselves to detailed pencil work.


​Here is a selection of six drawings from still life set-ups in 2018-2019 weekly meetings.
