Urban Sketchers

A while ago, I joined the newly formed Vancouver Urban Sketchers. It is loosely affiliated with the International Urban Sketchers, started in Seattle by Gabi Campanario http://www.urbansketchers.org
The group gathers almost every week to get out in public around Vancouver and do some sketching in urban locations. It has been a fantastic way to get past silly notions of shyness about drawing and painting in public. I seem to have a umbrella theme going.

  1. These are great, so loose and efficient looking without like you stressed over the work (much like mine...haha)
