Changes and beginnings

By Alvaro Carnicero, before Córdoba (Spain), now Rzeszów (Poland)

This is time full of changes in my life. I changed the city, the country, my schedules, habits, food, language… and urban sketcher group.

From my hometown, Córdoba (Spain), I moved to a little corner in my second country, Poland. The experience of living abroad isn´t shocking, that’s for sure. I guess that the trick is to find the good part of everything new. Anyway, there are stuffs to learn, first of all the language, absolutely necessary to do a normal and independent life. 

As I said, in this new beginning, there are lots of changes, even a new urban sketchers group for me. Although to them it is also something new – last Saturday was the first Urban Sketchers’ meeting in Rzeszów, and probably one of the first celebrated in all Poland, considering that this national group was founded around 3 weeks ago in Facebook.

This sketch was done on the main square of Rzeszów, a typical view of a Polish city, houses of different colors and water well in the center, the location where in old time market would take place. 

This national group, Urban Sketchers Poland, begins very strong; they have the goal of celebrating the first national meeting in Warsaw next 23th of August, and I´m going to be there!

A great beginning – for them and for me as well.
