Dublin Sketchers get together every Sunday afternoon in Dublin to sketch. We go to a different place each week. Check here before hand to see where we are off to. Come along if you fancy it! We start sketching from 2pm and meet at 4pm for a drink and chat. We are part of the global Urban Sketchers community.

I enjoyed the session today. I started with a sculpture in wood of a face, and drew the face from lots of different angles - two are shown here. It felt like more of an exercise in seeing the same thing from different angles, rather than completing each drawing. The woman's face is based on a drawing in the "traces" exhibition - sorry, can't remember the artist's name, but it was a striking blue background with simple line work in white. As always, I over drew my lines, but I think it came out well. The "diner menus" just made me laugh, so I copied it here. I did another soundscape - and feel that it is an idea that has mileage - you probably can't read anything on this one - the funniest being a comment of a small boy on some of the installations - "where is the art mummy?"
