Adventure Sketching. Agar Steps and Millers Point

April 8, 2017 by Erin Hill Sketching

THURSDAY APRIL 6 ’17 Thursday provided warm sunshine for our sketch meander through The Rocks and Millers Point.. We met at the Splendid Cafe right at the base of the historic Agar steps built in 1892, a series of beautiful, cascading sandstone steps which link Kent Street to  Observatory Hill. There are quaint private residences all the way up. So much to sketch! We had to compete with hundreds of keep fit fanatics running up and down the steps and […]

Let Them Eat Cake

December 19, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

Sunday December 18 ’16. Sketch your Cake Open Day. The doors opened early and Anna arrived with masses of boxes filled with – well we had to wait and see! Sue brought her beautiful cake plates and stands so we could carefully create displays with samples of all the cakes available. The yellow tablecloth from France was laid out and fitted perfectly across the white tables. Now we were looking good. Many orders were in those other boxes but we weren’t […]

Girl’s Night In. Sept 21 ’16

September 22, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

It’s now called ‘Girl’s Night In’ mainly because none of the boys were ever brave enough to venture along to our Sketch&Wine nights. The Invitation is still open chaps. And no, flowers are not a girls subject only!  How many of those did the Impressionists do! We’re  impressionists too and we have huge fun splashing around, flicking paint everywhere. Not everyone had tried tinted paper so tonight was a chance to break out and try some things in a way you […]

Week7. Term3. The Watercolour Effect

September 4, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

EHS Sydney In General Classes:  As Travel Sketchers we are always looking for fun, fast techniques to embellish our sketches. This week we explored using watercolour washes and sprinkles of watercolour pencil in our sketchbooks. We realised what a fantastic technique this is for travelling as we prepare our pages ahead of time, perhaps colouring a few pages randomly in our new sketchbooks and using them when the mood arises.  Coloured pages are also handy if you are sketching in a […]

Week5 Term3.Flat Perspective and Curly Hair

August 20, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

EH Sketching Sydney General Sketchers this week were sketching with Al the Barber. But first we completed some fun warm up sketches in the studio. First sketch was a continuous line drawing of a crazy ‘Waste to Art’ sculpture made by Kathy. Lots of lovely detail to keep that black line moving over the page. So much creativity in your largely black and white sketches with a dash of colour. Our next still life was a fabulous curly haired model, […]
