New Sketchers Workshop. Oct 2 ’16

October 3, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

We managed to score an utterly glorious day for our New Sketchers Sunday Workshop.  A group of very keen people arrived at the appointed time and after introducing ourselves, inspecting our new sketch kits it was time for tea and coffee. Everyone there said they were keen to learn to sketch while traveling rather than end up with a heap of camera images. In fact one of those attending was there because she’d met Therese one of our sketchers on a Scandinavian […]

High Heels, Beaches and Cakes

November 30, 2012 by Erin Hill Sketching

We’ve had a fun week sketching saucy shoes, sandy beaches, and ending with an elegant High Tea. Nov 29, 30th 2012. THURSDAY NOV 29 ’12 Shoes are made for Sketching! The red, purple and fushia high heels are wedding shoes as worn by the bridesmaids at a certain Mexican style wedding this year. The conservative blue wedges were worn by Mother of the bride! The sketchers really enjoyed doing these and many chuckles could be heard. Sneakers always have personality, […]
