Sketch Tour Portugal

[by Mário Linhares, in Portugal]

There is no doubt about how powerful sketching can be, and, on the top of that, how this community founded by Gabi Campanario, is showing that to the world.

From May 2017 to March 2018, 24 urban sketchers went to Portugal to register the country and tell their way to see the world through drawings.

The whole project started back in 2016 when we were preparing the 10th USk anniversary. The Tourism of Portugal joined the board to celebrate this young group of artists with this amazing project: 

– one local sketcher

– one international sketcher

– one region

– one week

– two sketchbooks to fill

– one movie

In the end, we have:

– one exhibition

– one website: www.sketchtourportugal.com

– a lot of new ideas about what’s to come!

Check out some examples from the sketcher participants in this amazing experience:
