James Routledge Sketch Artist 'Turning photos to sketches since 2018'

Hi there and thank you for viewing my page.

What I do here is I turn your photographs into personalised hand drawn sketches. I can blend some of your favourite photos together to make the perfect family/group portrait suitable for any occasion. I don't just stop at people and pets, I have also created an number of other pieces when requested for special occasions. The aim of 'Routledge Arts' is also to encourage people to become more creati

ve and artistic. This is a good way of learning new skills, find a new passion, or how to use art to help improve mental health. This is why this page also shows some other the other pieces of art work I create. These items aren't planned for being on sale, I just like getting creative and involved with a lot of other arty projects too. If anyone has any enquires about a personalised sketch, feel free to message me and I'll see what we can do.

Last year the picture I donated raised £500 in the auction and I could believe it. It was an unreal experience and I never thought it would reach that much.

Now fast forward a year to today. This was my new that all the players had signed (thanks again lads 🍻), but I wasn't expecting it to get anywhere near last years insane bid.
Well not only did it do better, but it went for £1000!!!! 🤯🤯🤯🤯 Every penny of this will go to Diabetes UK.

Thank you so much for the people that bidded for it, the lads that signed it and all the people involved today at South Shields FC for allowing me to donate this.

A year ago (yesterday) I was asked by South Shields FC to create a piece representing their club to help raise money at their "Let's Kick Diabetes" charity game. It had been signed by all the players on that team sheet and it went for an amazing £500!!! I still can't believe it!! Every penny from this was donated to the charity ✏️

This is just one of the many things I've been lucky to help with since starting this crazy art adventure ❤️

I'll always be grateful for everyone that's supported my work and this page over the years.

Thank you ✏️❤️
