Soleada Santa Mónica
[Por Shiho Nakaza, Virginia Hein y Tina Koyama en Santa Mónica, California] Tina: Hace un par de fines de semana, mientras visitaba a mi familia en Los Ángeles, tuve la suerte de dibujar con los que pronto serán los Urban Sketchers oficiales de Los Ángeles. En un magnífico día de cielo azul que fue un bienvenido respiro de la llovizna de Seattle, nos reunimos en el muelle de Santa Mónica, un popular [...]
An Afternoon Outing, Sketching by the Sea
by Shiho Nakaza, in Santa Monica, California I spent a bit of afternoon sketching with Pete Scully, who was visiting Santa Monica – his account of the weekend is here. While I’ve sketched at Santa Monica Pier numerous times, sketching together and chatting with a fellow sketcher made me look at the familiar scene with […]

More often than not, I do quick squiggles rather than a full-fledged painting, but I have kept that promise. This is the first of my daily sketches on New Year’s […]
Dibujar al sol

While sunglasses are essential on days like these (Angelenos wear them for eye protection, not just to look “cool”), sunglasses can interfere with seeing accurate colors when sketching. […]
Atardeceres del año viejo y amaneceres del año nuevo
I’m a little late in posting my sketches while I fight off a lingering cold. I’ve been meaning to post some sunset sketches in Santa Monica last week to mark the end of the year – better now than never, right? 😉 I never tire of watching and painting the sunset over the ocean – […]
Glowing in the Dark
I went to Glow Festival in Santa Monica past weekend to see one-night-only art installations. This was the hardest sketch I’ve done all year since it was too dark to see what I was drawing and I later had to paint the sketch with layers upon layers of paint to darken the sky. I managed […]
