Urban Sketchers & Mark Brown Combo Event!

I’m so excited for our upcoming event.

Last summer, we did our first Urban Sketchers/Mark Brown’s Art Group combo event at Kekaulike Market in Chinatown.

It was a nice gathering of fine artists and urban sketchers. Unfortunately, Mark Brown was recovering from surgery at the time and couldn’t join us on that day.

If you don’t know Plein Artist Mark Brown’s island paintings, you don’t have to look far. Mark has painted numerous murals all over Hawaii. Reproductions of his art grace the suites at Hilton Hawaiian Village, the Outrigger, and other hotels. You might have seen his paintings in the background on popular CBS shows such as “Hawaii Five-O” and “Magnum P.I.” Or maybe you’ll seen them hanging on the walls of your doctor’s or attorney’s office like I did a few weeks ago.

This is a great opportunity to meet Mark Brown and his Master class as we all paint together at Magic Island at Ala Moana Beach Park. I hope everyone can join us.

This event will be unlike our previous outings. We will meet 8-9am as a group while Mark will teach invaluable skills to capture lighting, colors, and movement on canvas. From 9 to 11:30, you will have 2 1/2 to draw and sketch. Then at 11:30, we will gather for sharing. Mark’s class is a structured class and we are guests so please take advantage to learn from a master and his students.

If attending, please email us at uskoahu@gmail.com by Friday, September 16th.
