We are three artists connected by meeting each week online and drawing together: Roz Moreton, Siân Barlow & Jen Herzig Smith.
We three have been in conversation over recent years. We hold regular zoom calls where we have been making drawings together - drawing together - www.drawingtogether.art 

In this work we have been exploring our sense of belonging to the places where we live, through the work of close attention, noticing and relationship with the plants around us.
We select the plants we will draw - gathered from where we live.
We also make our own drawing materials - ink and charcoal - with plants from our gardens or responsibly gathered.

root - taking root where we find sustenance, the specificity of being fixed in a particular place.   
branch - where we branch, our points of divergence, our structures of support.   
leaf -  places of exchange, our faces to the world.
seed - the mystery of unfolding.

Below is a selection of Roz Moreton’s current work - produced every Monday in 2026 Drawing together with Siân and Jen…

Using homemade Alder Inks - Alders collected from the near by the post-industrial woodlands, as a base colour and main ink, using graphites, watercolours and coloured pencils to capture the joy of the plants; roots, branches, leaves and seeds collected.

Collected leaves from the ground are carefully stitched on Japanese rice paper that has been washed with Alder Ink and their shadows captured with pencil and charcoal.
