Biography

Oliver Macdonald Oulds studied BA Illustration Animation at Kingston University, he graduated from The Drawing Year in 2018.

I like drawing on-location and the chance moment when somebody comes to have a look at what you're doing. Striking up conversation and asking them if they'd like to sit for a portrait. Drawing acting as a doorway to get to know somebody, even briefly. I think that's what it's all about; That moment of connection.

I just want to draw forever.
