Welcome to British Artist and Illustrator Sarah Custance's Fine Art Print Shop
ABOUT THE ARTIST
I began my career as an architect with a passion for pen and ink drawing. I graduated in 2007 from the Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL and was awarded the RIBA’s Serjeant Awards for Excellence in Architectural Drawing.
​
I then worked for 15 years in London as an Architect at award winning and internationally renowned practices - most recently as a Director at Fourfoursixsix Architects.
I have remained passionate about drawing and visually capturing the uniqueness of buildings, spaces, places and materials.
​
In 2020, I started to experience insomnia and drawing became key to my recovery - if I drew I slept better. Through this journey, I rediscovered my love of drawing. So now, I draw.
​
My style layers pen, ink and pencil drawing with watercolour, acrylic and metallic paint.
Following 20 years in London, I now lives in Hitchin, Hertfordshire with her husband Tim and twin children Elsa and Orson.
ABOUT THE ART
The artwork is drawn in pen, ink and pencil, and painted with watercolour, acrylic and metallic paint.
I uses the skills learnt through studying and practicing architecture to create highly detailed, textured and captivating architectural artworks. The intricacy is created by using 0.05mm fine line drawing pen with pigment ink.
All art work and art prints, whether Architectural Artwork, Streetscape Art or single line art are accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity guaranteeing the description of the artwork is accurate.
I, the artist, reserves to myself all copyrights in the work of fine art and reproductions may not be made without my (the artist’s) permission.

- materials are sourced locally where possible,
- where not, suppliers are chosen with strong environmental credentials,
- left over materials are re used,
- drawings and prints are made to order.
​
Packaging is minimised and reused to reduce waste. Any new packaging purchased is:
- eco-friendly and sustainable,
- plastic free, and
- fully recyclable or biodigradable.
