Week10.Term4. Sketching Rain or Shine

December 17, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

  EHS SYDNEY WEEK 10 TERM 4 ’16 Congratulations everyone. We are now at the end of 2016 and look how much sketching progress you’ve all made. Your tutors have so enjoyed being with you as you’ve had your ups and downs (and we all do) and seeing how you learn from trying things out and seeing what works and why. We’ve had wonderful compliments from you about how you had no idea that you could do anything like this. […]

Week7 Term4. Traditional buildings & People Action

November 26, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

Our classes offer such diversity these days. With day, evening, mid morning classes for both New and General Sketchers, the subject of the week may be set, but it’s how each class goes about it that creates such interest when you see all of the work together. You’ll see sketches of complex Federation architecture alongside early Australian cottage styles. We sketched montages of figure forms in action followed by people sketching in cafes. For our evening class it was sketching by […]

Week10.Term3.Scones Sand & Sun

September 24, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

Week 10 ended a quite amazing term 3. We’ve ramped it up and you have loved it. If it fits in a sketch book – anything goes! Our last week of term Is our ‘go somewhere different’ week. Take a ferry to the city or stretch out at a quiet beach spot. We did both. We also invited friends. Some very talented partners bravely attended the MCA cafe sketch and certainly showed they’d been listening to their sketch partners. Really […]

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 […]

S&W. Cards for all Seasons

July 23, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

Sketch&Wine. Wednesday July 20. This is always a fun night. Bring along as many different card and paper samples, ribbons buttons and spangles. Let the fun begin. Kathy is our excellent guide tonight, suggesting, showing, playing. Paint splashed and scribbled. Patterns printed and splattered. The world can go by and we’d never notice. Too much fun being had, with a dash of wine to help and some tasty cheeses to keep things balanced. Just loved the results everyone. Next Sketch&Wine […]

Week 10 Term2. Sketchcrawl

July 2, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

A wonderful term 2 has just concluded and everyone has made huge progress along the way. People who had no idea they had a shred of creative ability are now hooked. For most though it’s just the sheer confidence that comes with having a go at any subject and feeling good about the outcome. We never worry about ‘getting it right’ as your sketch will be just as you see it. You cannot go wrong. No more worry or judging oneself. […]

Sunday Intensive. People Up Close & Personal

June 30, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

Sunday June 26 ’16 At our Sunday intensive on people “Up Close and Personal”, we began with each sketcher saying what they hoped to take away from the day’s workshop. We first learned to do profile sketches and proportions and worked through front-on and then the three-quarters view, all before lunch! Knowing the general rules helps us to push and pull proportions to fit the individual we’re studying. How long is the nose?, Where does the ear lobe attach?, Do […]

Week7 Term2. Sea,Storms,& Veg

June 11, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

Week 7 was a little less wild and woolly than last week but the cleanup for everyone who’s properties were damaged in Sydney or Paris, is only beginning. Here in France we are having around 29 degrees most days and balmy evenings around 24. But of course it rains here too, as my computer discovered. Won’t even talk about that! For New Sketchers it was beautiful edible food sketching. Sketching food is such a lovely way to remember a meal. […]

Week 4 Term 2.Things that ‘Go Away’

May 21, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

Every week we set you a few more challenges in sketching. For week 4 it was first watercolours for New Sketchers and ‘Things going away’ for General classes. We’ve talked about planning your page and thumbnails a lot this week. That’s because without getting some idea of what the simple shapes are and how they fit, you are guessing how your sketch will turn out. Take ownership of what you want. Plan your thumbnails and lose the fear. We want […]
