About us
This is an inclusive group for artists/illustrators. It is a community meant for inspiration, connection and collaboration.
The Sketchup was founded in 2014 in India and has now made its way to Vancouver. We have organised 18 intimate artist gatherings across 5 cities in India with an amazing community of artists and speakers who talk about their journey in art.
We have also organised 5 art festivals between 2017-2021 in India.
We're just getting set up here in Vancouver and look forward to organising art events here that can provide value to independent artists.
The Sketchup is run by Madhuvanthi Mohan (aka @somethingsketchy)
You can follow us @thesketchup on Instagram and stay tuned for more!

This time we are going to see Rachael Ashe's (@rachael_ashe) art installation at Portal Pop up Gallery (@portalpopupgallery)
Rachael Ashe is a Vancouver-based artist of Trinidadian-Irish descent, originally from Ontario. She is a graduate of the Creative Photography program at Humber College, and is a multidisciplinary artist self-taught in paper-cutting and sculpting. She creates hand-cut artwork and installations from paper. Rachael credits her former position as a photographer at the Textile Museum of Canada, and an extensive exposure to handcrafted textiles, as a major influence on her work with paper to this day.
