April 7, 2018 by Erin Hill Sketching

Saturday 7th April, 2018 Our big finale.  Classes were all over Sydney this week putting together all the skills they’ve learned over the term.

Week 8. Term 1. Bicycles & Federation Facades

March 24, 2018 by Erin Hill Sketching

Saturday 24th March, 2018 Week 8 has been a very enjoyable week. For our Intro classes, it’s been ‘Sketching from Memory’! Can you remember what a bicycle looks like? Of course you can. Ok, sketch one from memory. Oh dear, it has 2 wheels, and a seat, umm, maybe handle bars and pedals. But something isn’t right! So let’s bring out our little model bike, and we have an aha moment. Such clever machines and we’ve never really observed how […]

Sketch&Lunch-Vietnamese

November 3, 2017 by Erin Hill Sketching

This month our Sketch&Lunch was held in Cabramatta featuring Vietnamese food. It was a rare scorcher of a day, and things certainly heated up in the markets! I took our students to one of the older more authentic cafes for a Ca Phe Sua Da (Vietnamese iced coffee). Here we sketched Vietnamese herbs. We tasted , touched and smelt them first, then leant what the Vietnamese names were for them. Next we headed to Eastland Supermarket where my friend Thai […]

November 4, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

EHS Sydney. Week4  Term4 November 5 ’16 General Sketchers this week have been sketching at the Star Carwash. Not for us pretty beaches and vistas. Nope. We like getting on the rubber gloves, grabbing the bucket and getting stuck into sketching. What a hilarious time everyone had. Who’d have thought cleaning cars could be be so much fun. And the sketches show it. Some look as though they’ve been through the wash as well!! Our city class concentrated on sketching with paint and […]

Sketch&Wine.Playing with Colour

June 30, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

Wednesday June 29 ’16. This was another chance for sketchers to let loose. Feel the freedom. Get your lines down and use any of the wax crayons, Art Bars, Inktense Pens and even Poster paint for colour. If it makes you happy then why not. Our sketchers enjoyed some wines and interesting cheeses, mixed with a lot of fun,  which always enhances your creative experience. Lots of subjects on the table so pick anything which appeals. This is the essence of […]
