Oh my, our book is going from Christina to Irina and I am so excited with its journey. Everyone has been amazing!
I will be going on vacation guys: Ireland, England and Italy!!!!! My life has been immensely busy and I have been daydreaming a lot in my free time. I am hoping to do lots of sketching while traveling.
I will be gone until May for a much deserved time off. Meanwhile, I wanted to share some amazing urban sketchers who have so deeply influenced me to start my own sketching journey:
Tommy Kane is by far the one who pushed me into sketching. He has this kind of self-deprecating humor of someone who doesn't take himself too seriously, all while being insanely talented. He also makes the most amazing videos of him sketching onsite. You must check the video of him drawing in Cambodia. It is amazing and can be found here.
Then, there is Lapin, who creates these insanely detailed sketches on old notebooks WITH LINES. I know, as a beginner I am always looking for the best stuff as though that will make my sketches look better... *sigh*
Then there is the Urban Sketchers troop. They are ALL over the WORLD. Amazing artists from each corner of the globe. One of my favorites are the Urban Sketchers from Portugal. I love the modern with the baroque architecture.
