Week9 Term1. Windmills,Fruit,Bicycles & Beer

April 1, 2017 by Erin Hill Sketching

Week 9 Term 1. 2017 Weather is on everyone’s mind this week. With dreadful storm damage in Queensland we are grateful our homes are safe here in NSW.  Some classes plodded and splashed their way to classes this week, and others had blue cloudless skies and heat! New Sketchers had the ‘bicycle’ test.  Start with a sketch of one from memory. Mmm not so easy. Two wheels and handle bars. Yes. Anything missing?  Then we bring out the model bicycle […]

Adventure Class. The ‘Paper Bag’ building

March 11, 2017 by Erin Hill Sketching

Adventure Thursday. March 9 ’17 We met at the Devonshire Tunnel at Central Station and walked the pedestrian friendly Goods Line to UTS Business School. What an amazing building.

It boggles the mind how every twist and turn and crumple and fold […]

August 20, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

Sketchers experimented with calligraphy pens and ink, brush pens, water brushes and coloured pens. We found ingenious ways of creating fun letters, script, headings and ways to embellish our pages. For some sketchers it was a wonderful way to catch up with sketch buddies, for others a chance to meet new people. The wine, cheese and chocolates […]

Auckland Open Day. ErinHill Sketching NZ With Tony McNeight

December 5, 2015 by Erin Hill Sketching

The Studio was pristine. The champagne was on ice. French bread and tasty NZ cheeses were waiting. 3pm. Tony was pacing. Erin was calm. People arrived. Many many many people. Get them a drink. Everyone had seen the leaflets, read the local rag, or chatted among themselves in the pretty seaside village of Devonport. Just a short ferry ride to Auckland. Tony McNeight is opening ErinHillTravel Sketching NZ. What’s this all about! People mixed and mingled all afternoon, keen to hear all […]
