Barcelona sketches

It took me some time to get my head in gear to organize and post my 2013 USK Symposium sketches. It was an awesome time and the new processes, the different materials and just trying something new had my head spinning...but in a good way! And that is really why I take workshops.
So here are some of what I did there. To see more sketches and about the workshops I took please visit my blog at http://www.reason2draw.blogspot.com

James Richards' workshop

Norberto Dorantes' workshop

 July 13th Worldwide Sketchcrawl

Barcelona Symposium

Here are a few sketches from the wonderful symposium in Barcelona. If you want to see more, there are three posts (before, during, and after symposium) on my blog http://draw2c.blogspot.com

The Sagrada Familia, from the first sketch crawl...

The market, from a workshop with Ea and Marina...

A church, from the workshop with Inma...

Some fellow sketchers and Lynne Chapman, (who I could never sketch accurately because she's in constant motion:)...

and the final sketchcrawl at the Arc de Triomf...

In my workshops, I tried for a looser style. Can you tell?

The symposium was a fantastic opportunity and I will treasure the memories of the lovely people and the beautiful city. 

Symposium Final Evening

OK, Andrea, this is for you...

This was our final night, right before the closing with the wine, paella, and other delicious food. We look happy, even if a bit fatigued. So many great memories!

Happy New Year!

I hope you don't mind seeing more of my pen work here on this blog, but I wanted to get a New Year's sketch up and thought there might be others whose hopes are leaning this way.

Feliz Año Nuevo!
