Hi.
My name is Chris. I’ve loved drawing and
painting all my life and began urban sketching two years ago. It’s given me so
much fun and satisfaction. It’s always better sketching with likeminded people,
isn’t it. One of the highlights would have to be attending the last USK
symposium in Barcelona, where I not only saw some amazing sights but got to
meet so many of the faces that go with those names that keep popping up online!
I’ve always loved drawing buildings, and of
course there’s no shortage of choice in Barcelona!
Santa Anna church in the middle of the busy
city is a haven of peace and quiet, and the cloisters were such a lovely place
to spend an afternoon drawing.
The symposium workshops were a great way to
explore the city and see it through new eyes. It was great to participate in
Norberto’s ‘Dynamic Ink’ workshop, and interesting to be limited to only two
colours after the ink work. Lots of new
things to try and practise back home!! So, more to come!
