It has been curated by Richard Aitken, a fellow sketcher from Melbourne, who searched through the State Library’s collections and selected more than 150 rare, beautiful and at times unlikely objects - spanning over five centuries - to illustrate the rich and inspiring story of garden-making. Some of my favourite exhibits were books from the 1400s and 1500s, and the panorama sketchbooks / drawings like the one of Calcutta below, which were very inspiring for us as sketchers!<br />

We felt a sense of being part of the continuing tradition of recording our surroundings that was so evident in them. The exhibition is on until the new year so those who missed this can still visit it another time. Thanks Richard for a great morning!<br />

After the monsoon let up the group was able to continue the month with a series of excellent Sketchouts. Our first Sketchout was on Saturday 7th at Queens Park which is a compact venue with sketching opportunities in every direction.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4WlsXq5DldY/V3ULP4AvvfI/AAAAAAABpw0/CkSn-l1byFkNQdKaaYP4BNNkeSdIH5JzQCLcB/s1600/index.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="478" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4WlsXq5DldY/V3ULP4AvvfI/AAAAAAABpw0/CkSn-l1byFkNQdKaaYP4BNNkeSdIH5JzQCLcB/s640/index.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
The second Sketchout for the month was a visit to Fort Lytton for History Alive an annual historical re-enactment festival. One member Christine managed to be there in two capacities, both as a sketcher and as a costumed re-enacter. You can see Christine with her authentic sketch kit on the right.<br />
<br />

We followed up with Sketchouts at The Old Museum at Bowen Hills, Mowbray Park,the Barracks Precinct, Davies Park market at West End and finished up with a visit to the Brisbane Powerhouse and Newfarm Park where we met a new sketcher Angie and her baby George.<br />

After the last ‘official’ Sketchout for the month some members were able to hold a final impromptu Sketchout at the Beenleigh Historical Village.<br />
<br />
<br />
Roll on July!!<br />

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #16191f; font-family: "helvetica"; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">Despite the fact that the planned itinerary was never
going to work in that weather, we all found sketching spots under some degree
of shelter. Some of us visited the art gallery, while others drew the Town Hall or the amazing architecture of the new Wollongong Central and its views. Its design is based on the industrial heritage of the city, and its landscape, reflected in the rust-coloured steel bars on the front facade and the local flora designs as embellishments on the white panels.</span></div>

We have continued to hold two Sketchouts every week and managed to hold 18 over the two months. This would not have been possible without the dedication of the Admins and members who volunteered to host Sketchouts. </span></div>

Some of the other places we sketched at were St Stephen’s Cathedral, St John’s Cathedral, UQ St Lucia, and the City Botanic Gardens. Our final Sketchout for May was held in Victoria Barracks which is a closed Army barracks not open to the public.</span></div>

Two of them were Martin Perera from Goulburn and Bernard Hornblower from Melbourne. We moved our Saturday Sketchout to Sunday so that Bernard could meet up with us. Any sketchers visiting Brisbane please contact USk Brisbane and we will do our best to organise a Sketchout that you can attend. </span></div>

I'd really appreciate your feedback on different approaches : "traditional vs loose."<a href="http://www.parramattamission.org.au/Parra-Mission/our-history.html"> </a></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.parramattamission.org.au/Parra-Mission/our-history.html">Leigh Memorial </a>is a Victorian Gothic church opened in 1885. </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; line-height: 15px;">Today, it's Uniting church in Parramatta.

T</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">he church building has unified colours on it. My paints have come together well. The colour of a shadow seems fit to the architecture. I really enjoyed drawing. Street walkers often talked to me. Thanks for cheers! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The black and white is below. In the colour work, added people show a scale of the building and something humane. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">A loose image is below. In fact, </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I had done it earlier than the work created by a traditional drawing methods. I enjoyed colours in a quick way. But my eyes have told that the building is too thin. So, I made the building stout in the first image. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I tried Leigh Memorial for several times. The more, I draw, the more, I learn.</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">What do you think these two different modes? </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">In my eyes, the </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">drawing of architecture, itself, is not so complicated, as long as my eyes capture a building as a "mass" and chunk it down in simple 3D. A headache is architecture demands preciseness in drawing. Of course, there are many artists cook architectures by their unique styles. Produced architectures taste good and so beautiful, which very much interests me! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I need more time to learn how I loose up architectures/landscapes or try other drawing methods. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Practice gives me answers.</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> I'm very proud of messed up papers! </span><br />

It’s over 1100 km from <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sydney">Sydney</a> and surrounded by semi-desert, so I was excited by the chance to see for the first time the colours of the outback. It was interesting preparing my palette for the journey. I bought a few new watercolour pencils and topped up with Daniel Smith Transparent Red Oxide, which is a fabulous colour that makes everything better!<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #1c1c1c; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 14.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span><br />

Broken Hill once produced 1/3 of the world’s silver. In the early 1900s over 8000 men worked its mines and the remnants of its mining history are everywhere, like the old BHP poppet head on the Line of Lode that looms over the city. <br />
<br />
But there is so much more to see than mines. A special experience was to go out to the Living Desert Reserve at sunset to view the stone sculptures. This Aztec sun god with its keyhole seems to be the favourite. It’s a place of utter tranquility, just entrancing as the sun sets and casts a vibrant orange glow, which gradually turns to grey-mauve as it sinks below the horizon. It was one of the most special places I’ve ever painted! And I was glad to have my Schminke transparent orange with me!<br />

Another special experience was visiting Kinchega wool sheds about 100 km out of Broken Hill. Built in 1875, they’re so remote and a real step back into Australia’s pastoral heritage. In 97 years of operation 6 million sheep were shorn here. If the boards could talk! You can’t help but marvel at the tenacity of those early settlers. How did they survive the remoteness. We were there on a 38 degree day but at least we had an air-conditioned car to travel in</div>

We also stopped where explorers Burke and Wills’ expedition camped on this river bank on their quest to cross Australia from Melbourne in the south to the Gulf of Carpentaria in the north, as the signage on the tree indicates. Water levels are currently very low and Broken Hill is facing another water crisis as Menindee Lakes dry up. The searing heat of the day came through in the parched colours.<br />

When full the Menindee Lakes hold more than three times the size of Sydney Harbour, but the locals told us that currently they’re down to 5% capacity. The dead trees in the Lakes are a well known feature.<br />

On my last morning I couldn’t resist going to Junction Mine, which I’d spied the day before on the way to Kinchega. I just loved its strong lines and shapes, along with the rust. I drew in the early morning before breakfast because the forecast was for another stinking hot day.<br />

Looking back through my sketchbook I notice how much brown I used on this trip, not generally a favourite of mine, and it was interesting catching the train back on the long journey home, watching the greens gradually appear and the landscape become more lush as we neared the coast. It was a wonderful experience and I look forward to more trips to the outback. It made me feel proud to be an Aussie!Chris Haldanehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16469018419801963605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4998038882086746800.post-67849128632103402712016-03-30T19:23:00.001+11:002016-03-30T19:23:18.512+11:00BRISBANE URBAN SKETCHERS – MARCH UPDATE by LIANE WORTH<!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

Hi, I’m Liane Worth, one of the Brisbane USK
admin team. This month I am writing the monthly roundup for our very active group. This has certainly been a
busy month in many aspects. Brisbane USK have held nine ( 9) sketchouts with between 5 – 13 sketchers at
each event. </div>
<div class="alf-apx-apf-ape-a1j-ji" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="alf-apx-apf-ape-a1j-ji" style="text-align: justify;">
I have to say that I love being part of this group, it is fantastic to meet up with
like-minded people, to have the comfort and inspiration of sketching with others (it can be lonely &
uninspiring constantly sketching by myself), to see how other sketchers interpret the same scene and of
course I can’t forget to mention the learning and laughter we all share over a coffee at the end of our
morning. </div>
<div class="alf-apx-apf-ape-a1j-ji" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="alf-apx-apf-ape-a1j-ji" style="text-align: justify;">
Our founder and manager is JJ Bell. I would
like to say an enormous thank you to JJ for all her hard </div>
<div class="alf-apx-apf-ape-a1j-ji" style="text-align: justify;">
work and perseverance in dedicating herself to
organising <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman";">two </span> sketchouts for this group <u>every week</u>! I don’t know where she gets the energy! I am
helping to ease her burden a little by organising at least one sketchout a month. </div>
<div class="alf-apx-apf-ape-a1j-ji" style="text-align: justify;">
Due to our busy lifestyles,
JJ and myself have not always been available this month to run sketchouts, so we have been very happy
to have a couple of our regular sketchers step in and run a couple of events in our absence. Thank
you very much to Susan Baggio and Peter Darmody, your help has been greatly appreciated. This is another aspect of USK that I love, when
in need someone does step up and help out. Isn’t that<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-fareast-language: ZH-CN;"> what life (and art) is all about, sharing, teaching and helping each other.</span></div>

On returning from the Urban Sketchers Symposium in Singapore
last year, several of our local Sydney sketchers commented on how great it was
to meet so many international sketchers in person. As a relatively isolated
region from other countries we set out to find a way to grow our connections
with overseas groups a little further, sharing our cultures, cityscapes and
experiences with others, whilst we further develop our appreciation for theirs.

<span style="text-align: justify;">As you can see we chose to do a sketch swap, and elected for our first to be with Hong Kong as a result of meeting some of the lively, passionate, talented and dedicated group in Singapore. Thankfully they accepted our suggestion and now several months later we are celebrating a very successful sketch swap between Urban Sketchers Sydney and Urban Skechers Hong Kong. Thank you USK Hong Kong for sharing your beautiful work with us </span><span style="text-align: justify;"> </span><span style="text-align: justify;">and to Alvin Wong for your continued enthusiasm and dedication to help make this all happen! </span><br />

As well as the official sketch-outs, some of the Brisbane USk sketchers were able to meet for an evening sketch-out for the Chinese New Year in the Chinatown Mall.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #616161; font-size: 16pt;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">I recently stopped off at one of
my favourite places, Marulan, a little village off the main highway between
Sydney and Canberra. It has some interesting history, including bushrangers
holding up traffic travelling north to Sydney from the Southern goldfields. Each
time I stop there I take the chance to draw some of the historic buildings on
its main street, adding to my Marulan set in an 8 x 5” Moleskine.</span><span style="font-family: "pt sans";"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

that make up Baldock's general store are classic Australian style with the
galvanised shed alongside the shop and residence. It was built in the 1870s with a well at the back that was one
of only three that were Marulan’s main water supply in those days. </span><span style="font-family: "minionpro" , serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

Butchery, built in 1878, has been a butcher’s shop ever since! At one
time it was Feltham’s Butchery and apparently Granny Feltham was still a
good butcher at age 93!<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

store, with a blacksmith’s at the back. The front gable has a window used when
heavy stores were winched to the loft from the horse drawn wagon below. I read
that at one time there was even a skating rink at the rear of the shop!<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

All the rides are free and run by manpower -- on nothing electronic! Parents and children play together from rides, shooing, a bicycle racing game to fascinating machines in a fairground. An artist, Jordà Ferré has recycled materials and turned objects to surprising machines/architectures. I sketched most of the works! They have classical, yet, unique, elegant and amazing shapes and brilliant functions! What an ecological and environmental friendly </span><a href="http://www.sydneyfestival.org.au/2016/arquitectura-de-feria" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“Antigua I Barbuda Catalonia Australian Exclusive”</a><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">A very sophisticated art work I realised is at the entrance of Riverside Theatres opposite to the Prince Alfred square, below.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Friends, can you guess what that machine (above) is for? Can you tell how it works? “For a dentist use,” a lady said – Na! What else? Any one?</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It’s a wine server! How graceful it is! Can't you believe it? Here we go, its <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TGjJUx6NYY">YouTube</a>. A distinct and incomparable concept is the key of all the art works created by <span style="background-color: yellow;">Jordà. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I met the artist Jordà in person, while I was sketching a Ferris </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">wheel. Lovely Jordà is a Catalan speaker. Come on, Spanish and Catalan speaking blog readers. Let’s have fun! </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This Ferris wheel is run by a mom or a dad’s hands! Children ride on toilet seats. Hilarious and a wonderful humour! Of course, riding children are so happy. Look at this smiling boy. Only the shame is that I cannot enjoy it because of my weight (max. weight 45kg). Lovely staff always asks audience and children to put hands together for a volunteer's vigorous exercise at any machine. The art work and the event are very heart warming, comical and entertaining as well as serious and beautiful. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">All the staff centralise children and respect them as well as parents. The children and disadvantaged people are heroes and winners in the event. Parents wind up handles or spin pedals to work these machines for children. Below, at the right side of the Ferris wheel, you can find two tyres and a belt. THERE, a volunteer cranks a handle. Parents, it's a good exercise and sure, you'll be fit! </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">But also the artist and the team have set special seats for exhausted parents like the rides offered for children. Only parents may take comfy big seats and children move fans, in turn of their parents’ hard work after all the rides! How’s that! How well-organised event this is! It is wonderful to see a sweet interaction between parents and children in family. I’d like to say special thanks to the staff, especially, the team who came a long way from Spain. It is their sensitive and enormous efforts that run this wonderful family event successful and happy for anyone! Children, p</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">lease handle the staff with care, because they are fragile and easy to be broken. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Let’s try another ride of a merry-go-round. Each ride in it is has a unique shape designed for a parent/carer and a child. Yes, the artist designed two seats for children and parents to have fun together. I love to watch each “art work” in carousels. I like the double seated red airplane most! Originality is outstanding. If you like, you can try another carousel. It has a cool airplane, a funny crocodile, a rocket and so on. Children, people, all cheer up Mom or Dad working hard for carousels! </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Ok, would you like to try something different from a ride? Here’s the shooting for children. You can try three times at a bicycle bell. Do you kne? The bullets are pits of olive! Each time, a child must EAT up an olive. Excellent humour!! According to staff, “No one has ever shot three times. Only twice. If you can make it, you’re the champion!” Kids, go and try! </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">You may become a world record holder. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">What a clever setting!</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">An out of mark hits piano wires and makes a dramatic and formidable sound in a low key. Another fun game is a bicycle <span style="background-color: yellow;">race</span> like "Le Tour de France"! Two people on station bikes move their miniature and tiny bikes in a course </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">on a big table</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">. We cheer up participants around the table! Children, go for it! You may beat adults! I love all the games and to hear people's hot cheers and big laugh, here, there, everywhere. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Parents, children, you can't miss this fantastic and free event. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Come and say hello to the wonderful team from Spain and locals. A</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> local Sydney Festival staff </span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">talked to me and enjoyed a chat.</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> His say was my great reward. Children, too, talked to me. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Oh, yes, nice live music is also free. The machines are beautiful in lights </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">at night </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">and in a comfortable cool weather. (*we're in summer!) </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Finally, I'd say special thanks for all the staff, anyone involved with the event and children and parents. You've brought us such a wonderful event freebie! You've also cheered me up to keep on these sketches. Thank you for your friendship! My own blog is here, <a href="http://sadamisgraffiti.blogspot.com.au/">"Sadami's Graffiti,"</a> in which my hands think and I particularly love drawing us, people. </span></div>

<span class="zw-portion" style="color: black; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;">Happy New Sketching Year from USk Brisbane. </span></div>
<div class="zw-paragraph" style="font-family: Times New Roman; line-height: 1; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0in;">
<span class="zw-portion" style="color: black; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;">We have had a terrific year of sketching in 2015 </span><span class="zw-portion" style="color: black; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;">and are looking forward to another in 2016</span><span class="zw-portion" style="color: black; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;">.
Thanks to the enthusiasm and energy of our main organiser, J-J Bell, (Judy-Joy) we
have had a sketch-out attended by as many as twenty sketchers almost
every Tuesday and Saturday during the year, and members have also been
encouraged to share their other sketches done outside of the organised
meets on the Brisbane USkers FB Group. </span></div>

<span class="zw-portion" style="color: black; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;">The regular sketchers of USk Brisbane are varied group. We are lucky to have some professional artists and architects </span><span class="zw-portion" style="color: black; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;">and </span><span class="zw-portion" style="color: black; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;">talented amateurs, </span><span class="zw-portion" style="color: black; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;">and </span><span class="zw-portion" style="color: black; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;">an enthusiastic contingent of international university students. We have also been fortunate to have </span><span class="zw-portion" style="color: black; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;">some </span><span class="zw-portion" style="color: black; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 12pt;">interstate and international sketchers come sketching with us in 2015.</span></div>

we sketched re-enacters in knightly costume; and it was amusing to see
WW2 Axis and Allied soldiers having morning tea together. </span></div>

The Urban Sketchers Canberra group had a great turnout yesterday. We met in the foyer of Old Parliament House and greeted some new faces to the group. I had not anticipated such a wonderful turn out as we are a newish group, and in Canberra many people are still tied up with family or taking advantage of the holidays for a quick trip to the coast. I was totally delighted to see 17 sketchers arrive, sketch, share their work.<br />

We were very lucky to be able to sit in the house of representatives and sketch to our hearts content, even using the desks the politicians had used for years. Although we could only use pencil (no wet media) I was pleasantly surprised as to how accessible such a historic building was. I will visit again as sitting in the same seats, and the same desks where so much of Australia’s history has been shaped made an impression on me. <br />

After a couple of hours sketching we had a great lunch together at the Hoi Polloi cafe. Conversation was animated and enthusiastic - needless to say the dominating topics revolved around sketching.<br />
<br />
The first Sunday of the month is the Urban Sketchers Canberra regular meeting day and of course people with all levels of skill are welcome.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Thank you for visiting our posts this year. In Nov, I had a fall at steps in a hurry, when I delivered art work to a second solo exhibition,<a href="http://www.languageonthemove.com/migration/language-and-migration-in-parramatta"> "People of Parramatta."</a> I got two fractures in a left shoulder and a left wrist which required a surgery. I finally came back to an Urban Sketcher meeting this Dec and am on the mend. A few weeks ago, I bumped a sketcher at Queen Victoria Building in City. Fortunately, the </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">street was closed for construction! No trafic! </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">Another member's great idea, "Sadami, let's draw it now." </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">We could not miss very the best opportunity to sketch the QVB from the front.</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">It was wonderful to do it with the friend</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">to lift myself up. </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">The fractured shoulder was very painful though, we really enjoyed it. In all, I spent two days to finish it up. A complicated decoration fascinated me so much. Yet, it has harmony and rhythm like music that charms a sketcher. Many people talked to us. It was a great fun. The friend and I said, "We will sketch together more!" </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I also recently went to St Mary cathedral square to sketch a famous "life size nativity." It was so lovely to sketch the nativity for the first time that I had longerd for sketching in my life. That famous scene that Jesus was born had many symbolic animals, in my eyes. A donkey, a white dove (in a shepherd's hand) and sheep which has meanings and roles in Bible. I imagined... and a little bit changed statues -- Mary and Joseph are smiling at a little Jesus. Baby Jesus is smiling back to them.</span></div>

We spent a couple of hours sketching (attracting some curious onlookers), then got together for a card exchange, and lunch.<br />
<br />
It was a fun session. Here are our collective efforts completed during the couple of hours. Each of us submitted a sketch for exchange and went home with a sketch completed by another sketcher.<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I had 2 colours with me. Here are some of my sketches. The following two were completed at Christmas Square at Collins Place.<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
There is a big Lego Christmas Tree at Federation Square and I found a nice spot away from the crowd to sketch it.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://evelynyee.files.wordpress.com/2015/12/img_4297.jpg?w=670&h=670" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Lego Christmas Tree by Evelyn Yee" border="0" src="https://evelynyee.files.wordpress.com/2015/12/img_4297.jpg?w=670&h=670" title="Lego Christmas Tree by Evelyn Yee" /> </a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
And for sketch exchange, I made a card with inks (below). On the right, I captured Santa in my selfie. <b>Happy Christmas everyone, and all the best for 201</b>6.<br />

<span style="text-align: start;">It was a warm 31 degrees, so most of us donned out hats, picked up our water bottles and ventured forth to find shade! The gardens are lovely at this time year, and there were many spots to sit and sketch. I am going to return more often as the gardens provide all sorts of interesting sketching challenges. </span></div>

I am just back from a wonderful two week trip to the remote Norfolk Island which is 2.5 hours flight from Sydney and 1.5 hours flight from Auckland. It is a stunningly beautiful island with a fascinating history and the intention of my trip was to have a rest – a true vacation. This is something I rarely do these days as most of the time my trips are intensive sketching sessions. But the slow relaxed pace of the island, the lack of exciting tourist attractions and my own limited quota of three sketches per day meant that I only did a fraction of the sketching I would normally do.<br />
<br />

<br />
There are a lot of fascinating things about the island both its history (settled by the descendants of the mutiny on the Bounty) and the unique aspects of island life due to its remoteness but I was rather taken with one small part. The Kingston precinct includes a beautiful beach, a fishing pier, and constantly changing light a collection of historic colonial buildings - what more could a sketcher want? I returned to this area over and over again to sketch different aspects, different views and in different times of the day.<br />
<br />

Another feature of the island is the native tree, the Norfolk pine tree. These majestic trees are everywhere and are a major part of the beauty of the island. I don't think I have ever had such a feast of beautiful subject matter from which to sketch.<br />
<br />
I will just share a few of my sketches here in this post but you can find them all over on <a href="http://www.lizsteel.com/2015/11/norfolk-island-part-6-wrap-up.html">my blog</a>. You can also find out a little bit more about the island (including photos) on this <a href="http://www.lizsteel.com/2015/11/norfolk-island-part-1-summary-of-my-trip.html">post</a> and a little bit about how I enjoyed t<a href="http://www.lizsteel.com/2015/11/norfolk-island-part-2-unplugging-and.html">otally unplugging from social media</a> for the entirety of my trip.<br />
<br />

One of the major parts of my trip was the fact that I took an untested sketchbook. I was given a Pentalic sketchbook by Stephanie Bower and I thought it would be a great occasion to use it. I had a few challenges initially which I described in detail on<a href="http://www.lizsteel.com/2015/11/norfolk-island-part-2-struggles-with.html"> this post</a> but managed to develop a way of using the book to suit the way I paint. Thankfully I took an emergency sketchbook as well which gave me a chance to do some loose sketches while I worked out how to get the results I wanted in the Pentalic book. I have just done a detailed review comparing the Pentalic paper with the moleskine paper on my blog <a href="http://www.lizsteel.com/2015/11/sketchbook-reivew-pentalic-aqua-journal.html">here</a>. <br />

<br />
I really got addicted to this particular grouping of buildings around the Kingston Pier area, the space between the buildings was really interesting and I did at least one sketch every day I was in the area.<br />
<br />

The most famous Norfolk pine tree on the island is referred to as Lone Pine - I think this is a poetic symbol of how this little island supports itself in the middle of the ocean.<br />
<br />
Despite how remote the island is, I am pleased to report that there is one urban sketcher on the island. Bronny from Adelaide moved there year ago so it was great to have someone to hang out with towards the end of my stay.<br />
<br />
I do hope to return there one day – it would be a great venue for a group sketching trip. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPpY7JOAvFKlP2IVrFfhhg-arJ3Pdeo57Z5ac8ROWCHLqF-OXcy_tpCYI9qima8x3EcYCgmKn8zn1Phj8Abn0zB1JNRysLsdBPnbd58ntGrmUobMPIebH7dxwzvQx14yc5jMfq8uE-IQ/s1600/LizSteel_Norfolk-Island-08_056-Kingston-Pier-Store.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><br />

The aim of the festival is promote drawing, so of course, we decided it was a great opportunity for an informal meeting. Some of the members of the Canberra Urban Sketchers group decided to go along, join in the activities and have some lunch afterwards. The Big draw is a world wide drawing festival for anyone who loves to draw and welcomes people of all skill levels.<br />
<br />
I did not get any photos of us sketching but we did manage to share our sketches. We had a great day.<br />

Our group started in February this year when several of us 'met' on-line and decided to get together for some sketching. We found some more like-minded people and before we knew it we had our first outing at the National Gallery of Australia.<br />

In May we met up with our first USk visitor, from Melbourne, at the National Museum of Australia. Not only did we get some hot tips about the use of pill boxes as watercolour palettes, but she also dazzled us with the sheer number of sketches she managed to produce in our short time together.<br />

In June we discovered that drawing outside when it is only 4 degrees C is not a good idea, although several new people bravely joined us that day. July saw us sitting around more comfortably in Hotel Hotel, one of the hippest new developments in Canberra, and a much better option for winter sketching!</div>

The highlight of the year for me was the chance to meet up with other USk members at the 2015 USk Singapore Symposium. Several of our group went to Singapore and this experience, more than any other, confirmed our desire to formally join USk so that all our members could share the experience of meeting like-minded people from around the world.<br />

Through this year we've developed a core of regular sketchers and every sketch outing new people are joining us. There is certainly no shortage of interesting places for us to draw in this city of ours. Apart from national monuments and institutions, we've met in hipster hot spots as well as historic precincts, drawing everything from food vans to Ferris wheels.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Urban Sketchers Canberra welcome USk members from all over Australia and around the world, to join us in exploring our city. Please get in touch if you are planning a visit, we'd love to catch up with you or provide some suggestions for places to sketch (or even where to eat well!).</div>

USk Canberra meets on the first Sunday of every month, from 10.30 am to 12.30 pm for sketching, followed by coffee and a chat.

Today about 30 Sydney Urban Sketchers headed to the Sydney Fish Markets. Most people sat outside drawing boats, but a few headed inside to sketch some of the fish!<br />

We didn’t get a full group photo as some people stayed at the tables so we had a spot to eat our lunch (yummy fish meals!) as the markets get crazy busy at the middle of the day. A great day - thanks to everyone who was part of it.<br />
<br />

It is an amazing sight.<br />
<br />
The <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/usk.bne/" target="_blank"><b>Brisbane urban Sketchers</b></a> have been taking advantage of this and sketching in places where the jacarandas are at their best. New farm park, UQ St Lucia and Saturday we sketched Dockside.<br />

Before British settlement, Kangaroo Point was occupied by the Turrbal people. It is one of the earliest suburbs settled in Brisbane and subsequently,
is one of Brisbane's oldest suburbs, rich in history and character. It
had a reputation for violent and rowdy street gangs around the 1900s,
with a number of street riots, even a murder. (Read the<a href="http://adb.anu.edu.au/biography/mayne-patrick-13088" target="_blank"> Mayne Inheritance</a>)<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kangaroo_Point,_Queensland#cite_note-sohf-8"></a> <br />

During Brisbane's convict era stone was
quarried at Kangaroo Point for building works in the town across the
river. By 1837 parts of Kangaroo Point were being farmed. <br />
In 1844 the first of several public houses in Kangaroo
Point, the Bush Inn, was licensed.<br />
By the late 1850s it is
estimated that Kangaroo Point had about 80 houses, a wharf, a ferry
service to north Brisbane, a bone shed, the remains of a derelict
boiling-down works dating from the 1840s, a sawmill, a brick-works, and a
postal receiving box. The industrial potential of Kangaroo Point,
particularly along its shoreline, was becoming evident, and all the land
had been sold by 1854.<br />

Main Street</div>
<br />
Main Street ran from the tip of Kangaroo Point southward to the
Woolloongabba Five Ways. It was flanked by sawmills, tradespeople,
cottages, a few larger houses, the Kangaroo Point and Pineapple Hotels,
an immigration depot at Wharf Street, the primary school and St Mary's
church. Slipways and engineering works were large employers.<br />

The Holman Street Ferry Terminal was built prior to 1919 for the City of Brisbane, then responsible for the servicing of ferry routes across the Brisbane River.<br />

Parks at Kangaroo Point were once the home and workplace of some of
Queensland's pioneering scientists and researchers. There is now a Natural History Trail here in their honour. I can't wait to go back witht he group to explore and sketch more wonders. <br />
