Meet Jodie

Jodie Duddington is a local interior designer in love with Newcastle, it’s art and it’s culture.

Jodie works on a wide range of projects including luxury yachts, commercial fit outs, residential interior design and furniture design.

She also loves music, contemporary figurative art and cooking.

One Sketch a Day by Charmon Deen

Jessica No Comments

Having previously studied illustration, I started the year long challenge of ‘One Sketch A Day’ to get back into drawing.

I came across the ‘One Sketch A Day’ Visual Journal on Instagram and was inspired by all of the different approaches people took to the challenge.

Inspiration for my sketch’s usually come from nature and my surrounding environment, whether it’s in a book, a photograph or out in the field.

To challenge myself, I have a time frame of 10 to 30 minutes to have it completed although some take a little longer.

After completing study at the UON and HDS and now working in the design industry, my ‘One Sketch A Day’ has been a great way to continue to explore and expand my creativity.
