A visual portrait of Newcastle NSW by Trevor Dickinson. A collection of colour drawings of the city, starting January 2009 with the last made during the 2020 COVID-19 Lockdown. The images look at the detail of Newcastle from signposts and bins to the beautiful beaches and everything in between. 


The Book of Newcastle showcases a collection of over 350 of Trevor Dickinson’s drawings of the city, starting January 2009 with the last made during the 2020 COVID-19 lockdown. 


 


The drawings record the small ignored details, from signposts and bins, to the beautiful beaches and everything in between, making a very personal visual portrait of Newcastle NSW in a period of great change.


The book is also about the process of drawing, it documents the development of an artist from the first urban sketch to a full time career, and includes sketchbooks, murals, zines and commissioned work.
