MY PRACTICE
Established in 2011, my art and creative direction practice is rooted in observation. I primarily reduce architecture, objects and automobili to hand-drawn essential lines, colour and form.
Developed through a longstanding engagement with Italy, my work moves between drawing, painting and collectible objects, with each piece retaining the immediacy of the artist's hand.

LET ME SHOW YOU THE FLORENCE I LOVE
This is not a tour. There is no fixed itinerary, this is a Private Experience.
With a sketchbook in hand to capture places or simply take notes, come and join me for a private day or two spent exploring Florence through observation, conversation, great food and the places that have become part of my relationship with the city.
TEDDY McDONALD • THE ARTIST BEHIND THE LINE
I have spent the past fifteen years developing a practice shaped by curiosity, observation and a belief in the power of essential lines.
My work has taken me into unexpected places — shaped by an enduring connection to Italy that runs through everything I draw, paint and design, and by recognition that has come to the practice along the way.
