El desafío de Copenhague

[by Fred Lynch in Copenhagen, Denmark] On a recent trip to Denmark, I tried to challenge myself to sketch quicker and with a broader variety of media. Ordinarily, I’m pretty consistent with my approach… and result. I’m a long-form sketcher who is attracted to light and specifics in my work. I’m in no hurry. I […]

Los habitantes de Copenhague y Bagdad se reúnen en una cripta

[Mensaje invitado de Zofia Zelazny en Copenhague] ¿Qué ocurre cuando te presentas a un evento que has visto al azar en el feed de Facebook? Tuve la oportunidad de encontrarme con compañeros de clase de la infancia en un ambiente de vernissage elegante, y de ver instantáneas de la vida cotidiana iraquí en la calle, así como de experimentar la única iglesia de Dinamarca con un grafiti [...]

Flying Sketches

A few weeks ago I went to Copenhagen to meet my family. It was a nice weekend with perfect weather. I did some sketches that you can see on my blog omar-paint.blogspot.com The way back was a littte complicated. However it is funny how the perseption of an event has a lot to do with […]

Unos días en Copenhague

I went to Copenhagen to visit my brother. I usually visit him for Xmas. It is quite a different experience to be in Summer instead of Winter. Copenhagen is a beautiful city, and I love to see the streets full of people and wonderful motives to sketch. When I arrived in Copenhagen I took the […]

En Copenhague, ¡con un cuaderno de dibujo!

I had scarcely four days—really only 3 1/2—but it was a fun trip nevertheless! Wow, the food in Copenhagen is absolutely beyond delicious, by the way. For my tastes, it’s the best that is going on in Europe right now. Anyway, I didn’t just eat. I made sketches, too. Here are few of them: Isn’t […]

Viajar por Dinamarca

Dinamarca se compone de medio pasillo y un conjunto de islas, lo que a menudo hace que viajar de una parte a otra del país lleve bastante tiempo, ya que hay que depender de puentes y transbordadores para desplazarse. Este mes pasé un fin de semana en Copenhague, visitando a amigos y familiares. Como estoy situada [...]

Copenhague

I went for a 5 day visit to Copenhagen in mid-February, and found time to go for a few walks, snap some cameraphone-photos and do a little sketching in between the meetings and socialising.   The temperatures were freezing, despite most days yielding full sun, so sketching was again a strictly in-door activity. I had […]

Grundtvigskirke Copenhague

Close to my brothers house in Bispepjerg is the Grundtvigskirke. The main facade is very impresive and resembles a church organ. The architect was Peder Vilhelm Jensen-Klint.

Copenhague

You know the feeling when you are in holidays with a lot of time to sketch but you don’t have a scanner arround to share your sketches? The drawings got accumulated till you are back into your enviroment with your beloved A3 scanner (yes, it was love at first sight). There is this need to […]

copenhague

Hola, voy a viajar a Dinamarca, Copenhague en unas semanas. (del 14 al 17 de septiembre) ¿hay algún dibujante urbano con consejos? ¿hay alguien que pueda mostrarnos a mí y a mi novia los lugares de interés? Me gustaría conocer el talento local. No quisiera dejar este post sin un boceto, así que aquí va uno [...]

Viajes de verano

One of the good opportunities for sketching in the summer holidays is during transit – in airports, train stations, bus stations, waiting for connecting flights or observing your co-passengers taking a nap on the 4 hour train ride. Here are some of my transit sketches from this summer’s trip to France: Kastrup airport, Copenhagen, Denmark […]

Copenhague

Estoy haciendo escala en Copenhague, antes de viajar mañana a Lyon (Francia). Como me alojo en casa de un amigo en Østerbro, he dado un paseo por el barrio y he dibujado un poco en la plaza Trianglen; había una parada de autobús con un banco donde podía sentarme y trabajar [...].
