Artomatic的22张草图
Artomatic is a month long, non-juried, not-quite-annual art festival in the Washington DC area. Its a really fun event open to anyone interested in participating, as long as they are willing to put in a few hours setting up their part of the show and volunteering to help the whole thing run smoothly. (this year […]
Columbia Heights Alley
So the original plan was to go to a couple of bookstores around the city and put prints of this sketch in the pages of as many copies of “The Art of Urban Sketching” as I could find. (Not an original idea, as fans of the Post Secret blog & books do this too with […]
另一个来自 "给予一点 "运动的精彩片段
I got this comment from a donor the other day. Its always great to hear in their own words, what people love about Urban Sketchers: “I have loved Urban Sketchers for the last year, and was glad to be able to give to help your organization, and to help others become involved with your sponsored […]
给力假期筹款活动的花絮
Replying to our generous donors, and sending out beautiful high-resolution print ready files is going to be part of my daily ritual from now till Dec 31st. I just heard this great comment from an urban sketching fan, that I thought I’d pass on: “Looking at, learning from, and ENJOYING the quality artwork that is […]
Jamestown Giveaway
While I was in Fredonia for NYSSSA this July (missing the symposium) I made my way down to Jamestown, NY to do a little sketching. There are a lot of interesting buildings and alleys there and last year I had thought it would be a great place to do one of my “giveaway” projects, but […]
海兰帕克餐厅的赠品
在回家过节的时候，我打算到城里去，在罗切斯特做一堆素描。在做了大约30分钟后，我意识到我对寒冷的容忍度比以前低得多。暖脚套和无指手套是该死的。不过，我确实设法完成了[...]。
唐人街门的赠品
So for Sketchcrawl 25 Joel & I took on DC’s Chinatown district & the Shaw Neighborhood. My most successful sketch came from sitting at a busy intersection by the Chinatown Gate, and while the heavy traffic that often parked right in front of me was annoying, the many kind comments from passersby made it a […]
西北17街的赠品
I was a little delayed giving away this set of sketches, as I drew them nearly 4 weeks ago and only dropped them off today. I originally wanted to do this street because it is where my sister lives, thinking it was my brotherly responsibility to include her in my sketching in someway. Unfortunately I […]
西北第27街的赠品
I dropped off my second set of giveaway sketches last weekend to a block of houses in Georgetown. Unfortunately it was raining at the time so I’m guessing they didn’t last terribly long. I’m only sure of two (of nine) surviving. One went to a house belonging to a couple whom I observed had no […]
S街的赠品
After receiving the unpleasant gift of a traffic ticket (or two) recently, I thought how much nicer it would have been to be surprised with almost anything else on my car’s windshield. Why not a drawing? So I made some (approximately) ticket sized drawings of a block of houses on S street and left them […]
