It’s Not Hoarding If It’s Books

This slogan on a t-shirt at today’s Hawaiʻi Book & Music Festival certainly captured the mood at the book swap tent – we could not resist browsing either, before launching our sketch activities. Festival attendees, countless canopies, and the giant trees were all popular subjects, but no match to the stoic police officer who was featured prominently in at least five sketchpads. Voices had to be raised a little at show-and-tell against the backdrop of performances at the Singer-Songwriter Competition, one of many events that vied for the visitors’ attention. The interest was mutual though: one of the local musicians even traded a CD of his music for Huong’s sketch!

As always, don’t forget to check out our sketches on Flickr and upload your own!

Make sure to stay tuned for our next event in June!
