The concept of
urban sketchers was developed by the Spanish artist
Gabriel Campanario now living in Seattle. Urban sketchers accepts only on site drawing, nothing from postcards or photos.
It is a matter of exercise and discipline and I must admit it is also fun sitting somewhere and just sketch the whole scenery.
The urban sketchers network is growing and has now over 1500 members.
For Bremen I would appreciate it very much if we could build up our Bremen group. If you are interested please visit
Urban Sketchers Bremen at flickr.com.
Here are some of the sketches I did. They are published on my flickr account
http://www.flickr.com/photos/manfredschloesser/ I am using a moleskine book and a simple pen. Sometimes I add some color from my mini water color set.
And here is my photo stream on FlickrThe urban sketcher album can be found here
