We were so excited to be back together this Tuesday, but didn’t have the name or address correct – it’s AMAZING what determined artists can do to show up! Here’s Jane’s continuous (mostly) line drawing of us waiting for stragglers: BarbSo, Sandy, Hugh, John Darland (our host), & Katie. Also joining us were Daisy, Bitty, Lona, & Satoko! Way to go! Afterward we were invited to John’s place to sketch – what wonderful treats both places!
For clarification – we were at Global Creative (wholesale art supply). See their websites – https://www.globalcreativeinc.com and www.markeruniverse.com.
We didn’t have a lot of time at John’s but Sandy managed two quick sketches.
Hugh was excited to get into his new supplies – Karin markers, with his Lamy pen.
Bitty had a blast with the Karin markes, including some metallic ones!
Jane was curious about some of the plants, and there were lots! Tombow markers here.
Laura captured some of the more whimsical items at John’s. Pen, colored pencil.
Lona tried some of the markers, but plans to add watercolor.
Peggy reverted to using her old Koh-i-Noor 6B pencil for these drawings – nicely done!
Folks dropped off along the way due to commitments, but here’s the sketch in review: Sandy, Peggy, Bitty & Hugh. We had a fabulous time! Thanks John!
Partly here & not: Marsha, Jane, Danita, Laura, Hugh, Barb So, Peggy, Daisy, & Bev. Not, but submitting sketches: Bitty, Rita, Sandy. We had a wide range of sketches, as usual, but now begins the 100 people sketches in August!
Barb So started with a self image, then moved on to other folks, including the roofers!
Bev dutifully sketched people, then got fascinated by local trees.
Bitty tried several approaches to sketching people (love the Olympic gestural studies!).
Daisy is still doing “collections” of things, and here’s her collection of sketchbooks!
First Danita’s landscape sketch of the golf course, then people sketches – her family!
Hugh sketches people wherever he is, including looking at Adam Grosowky’s painting!
Jane is getting a kick out of sketching photos taken by Italian friend Stefano Marcovaldi.
Marsha did an in person sketch at the golf course, then a shot from tv – who is it?Then Marsha got brave to do a “Daisy” – standing up to sketch people she saw around her.
Peggy’s honing her chops – from a landscape, to sketches of people in action!
Rita is on a road trip, but sketching all the way – you go, girl!
Sandy, like her husband Hugh, sketches people wherever she is – quite a diversity!
