Survey Synopsis

Posted: June 22, 2020 | Author: Sebastian Sievert | Filed under: USkO | Tags: survey | 2 Comments

Aloha fellow sketchers!

Mahalo nui for participating in our survey! It appears that a clear majority is in favor of returning to in-person events: 79% (11/14) feel comfortable or very comfortable to do so. Several of you also mentioned a preference for outdoor events, and we could not agree more – in particular now that some outdoor areas are less crowded.

We are still considering options for July’s events – stay tuned for details!

Saturday Sketch Coming Up!

Posted: June 5, 2020 | Author: Sebastian Sievert | Filed under: USkO | Tags: event announcement | Leave a comment

Tomorrow’s suggested sketch theme is “hidden”. Is your cat hiding under the table, but you see a tail or paw sticking out? Do you see something peeking out between the trees?

Or, sketch anything your heart desires – well, as long as it’s still “urban sketching”. Still lifes are fun, but don’t count! :)

Graduation. And, what next?

Last month, I graduated from UH Mānoa. I decided to sketch myself in the mirror wearing my graduation outfit. Darn, self portraits are so tricky! My head is more triangular and oblong than what I drew – I need some practice. Oh well, here’s some handsome guy who graduated – looks like he’s wearing my outfit. :)

Now, it’s on to the next phase of life: finding employment during tough times and exploring new things!

Let’s Sketch “Together”!

Tomorrow’s suggested theme is “together”. Get creative, but remember that we’re Urban Sketchers, so sketch what you see. :)

Our suggestion for this week’s Saturday sketch is a little different… Try to find a shape!
Keyword: “pointy”. Norfolk pine? Picket fence? Your pencil set? Look around and share with us in your sketch what you find!
