Sorry for the delay on setting the next global drawing marathon day, been a little busy with the TFP, but here’s the day finally: Saturday OCTOBER 25th!! Mark your calendars and come by the <a href=”http://www.sketchcrawl.com/forum/”>forums</a>! This is a big one, almost 4 years of SketchCrawling around the world!!! Exciting!

Mark your calendars ! The next international SketchCrawl day is set to Saturday June  21st !!!

It was an overcast day in SF but no rain, of course. Thanks to all of
you for coming out. We had roughly 60 crawlers around the Marina and Fort Mason today. The rest of the world saw around 52 different locations with avid sketchers roaming about! That’s really exciting, no doubt our biggest worldwide crowd of crawlers. Come by the forums and see drawings from all over the globe! Here’s my offerings from the day (dang trees are hard, gotta get better at ‘em).

All of us drawing around the world … tomorrow … :)  Join us for World Wide SketchCrawl 18!

World Wide SketchCrawl 18 is around the corner, hope you can join in the marathon from whichever locale you are at in the world. In San Francisco we are gonna be drawing around Ghirardelli square and the Marina.

The date for the first global drawing marathon of 2008 has been scheduled, January 19th. Mark your calendars!

This past sunday’s global drawing marathon was a wonderful success. The forums at the site are filled with wonderful drawings, watercolors and photos from all around the world. Anthwerp, Belgrade, Hong Kong, Sapporo, Brisbane, Singapore, Sao Paulo and many cities around the US all had groups of artists joining in the World Wide SketchCrawl. A warm thanks to all those of you who joined Ronnie and I in New York, we had a great time drawing at the Met and at Neue Gallery for the Klimt exhibit.
