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 […]

Sunday Workshop. Birds of Paradise and Trees

March 18, 2018 by Erin Hill Sketching

Sunday March 18 ’18 What a wonderful and enthusiastic group we had today, even though it hit 38 degrees in Sydney. Donna was my assistant today and immediately took over the coffee making department, and kept an eye on anyone needing a hand. People come from far and wide so sustenance is vital before starting. Before long we were seeing the strong clear shapes of the 3 Birds of Paradise in a watering can beginning to take shape. Certainty that […]

Sunday New Sketchers Workshop

September 28, 2017 by Erin Hill Sketching

Sunday September 24th a group of us spent an enriching time discovering Erin’s Sketching Techniques. Being in the Present Moment, knowing there are no mistakes, just freedom of expression was enjoyed by all. We started the day getting to know our sketching kit. We learned how to hold the sketching pen, as well as the correct way to hold the aquarelles. We made swatches of each colour and learnt the names of all the colours. Layering the colours in the […]

Week1 Term1 ’17. What Colour is Green?

February 4, 2017 by Erin Hill Sketching

Week 1 Term 1 2017. Sat February 4. We’ve hardly had time to lie down with a book under a tree lately!  Isn’t that what we all dream about! Ah well. Later.  Summer sketch classes are over and hopefully those awfully hot days. We actually made a fascinating discovery in one of our Summer Sketching classes. One of our sketchers wears a Fitbit. She says she has high blood pressure. While we were sketching last week she checked it. The […]

Week9 Term3. People are just Shapes

September 17, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

Week 9 Term 3. Sept 17 ’16 Wow this term has gone quickly. New Sketchers and General were all tackling ‘people’ this week. We’ve made big people shapes on rolls of paper, we’ve thrown paint and crayon over them, we’ve made montages of moving people.  We’ve sketched people in the Bavarian restaurant, on the Corso, at Manly Wharf, at the Manly Art Gallery. No one was safe. We loved every minute. By now everybody is feeling pretty confident about what they’ve achieved […]
