USK SYD meetup at the Australian Museum:
I joined the group who wanted to sketch outside. And as usual for a USK SYD event spend a lot of time chatting to people. So I chose a ‘comfort’ subject…an elevational view of the museum.
I did the first sketch in the moleskine new book (and by the way the plot thickens with the ‘new labels”. The book Chris is using that has the new label appears to have the old paper. More about this when I have a chance to track it down further…maybe a bad batch??? )
And then I did a test sketch in the Zeta book… and then somehow tonight a teacup appeared on the page (wow! how did that happen????)
Very interesting that I am feeling very positive about the Zeta paper in the first few pages…. hmm, I love the way my work keeps changing and that means paper that didn’t suit me so well at one time, might suit better at another. But hey – early days.
It was such a lovely morning with the USK SYD gang. I love this group a LOT!
Not all the regulars were out today (we missed you!) and we get a different mix each month – and a big welcome to newbies this month as well. There is such a great vibe each month and I get SO much out of our share session – hearing what other people were inspired to sketch, what they used and other stuff that happened while they were sketching…sharing all the different aspects of Urban Sketching.

Looks like a great bunch indeed and I'm sure it was a fabulously fun day! Love revisiting the wallaby in the one sketchbook. Also love how your colors are mixing on the paper. It looks amazing!
thanks Sherry- yes it is an amazing group!
thanks John and a big welcome! so glad to have you around.
thanks Caroline – I am so thankful to have such a great group… it is in fact a lot bigger than this and many core people where not there. Hope that down the track you do have a group like this in your local area!
Fun! Everyone's looks beautiful! I wish I had a group like that!
I found your blog from Ann@Studiohyde's and I'm glad I did. I love Pen & Wash and intend to do a lot more of it. Your Museum above is fabulous and I can see there's a lot of useful information posted here. I'll be back often. 😉
Great w/c of the Museum and pinned it immediately and found someone else had already beaten me to it. Cannot wait for your class this week on SBS 🙂
thank you Sandra…. not long to go now!!!!
