SketchCrawl.com™

Given the lack of chatter in the SF thread, this may be the thing to do - heck I didn't even know there was an east bay group! (though it makes sense).

Congratulations on your move Emma! When's your new gig start?

what no replies yet?

At the risk of being crass, since it's St Patrick's day, perhaps a pub/sketch crawl is in order? Maybe around Filmore or North Beach? We do have some architecturally significant pubs floating about, along with some stunningly garish storefronts

Looks like the holiday madness has caught up with everyone else as well. I just finally got these scanned last night. I think my personal fave from the set is the closeup on the flamingo. And next time I grab a sketchbook, I think I'll stick with something less colorful - green flamingoes are just p...

Hello Enrico, thank you very much for initiating this special event! If I may, if we were to have SketchCrawl 2 times a year instead of every 3 months, it will definitely maintain the momentum and interest. Hope we can get a survey going on this! Wah! It's hard enough waiting 3 months! Twice yearly...

hrm - I see what you mean. I think the forum needs a .jpg extension, and since the image host doesn't provide that direct linkage, the forum can't display it. Adding the extension simply breaks the link

That said, it looks like a fun group - and some very nice images! Thanks for posting these.

That's a good point about the reptile house - I think it depends on how large our group is. Can you imagine everyone from the sausalito trip in the reptile house?

L Train is a good plan B - I'm also fond of MUNI sketching. Since it ends up downtown, we could then invade one of the local shopping centers for people watching.

Should the day begin with Rain, should we all plan on meeting at the Zoo end of that route?

karen Nice stuff! Were those musicians in Sausalito, or at the ferry building? I can't believe Imissed them. I really like your bus stop sketch. habihanna beautiful tones! I especially like the last one, with the city skyline. funkybat Your lines are so loose and gestural - nice! Oddly though my fa...

emma Nice inks! I really like the contrasting line weight's on your 3rd page there. Also, the "sea monkey" in the seaweed is really cute! Debbie Huey I really like the way you captured the water coming off the fountain in the first image, and the fog monster is way cool. Also, I couldn't agree more...

splinesmith I love the life you manage to impart into all of these scenes! I especially love the water creature :) the lunacy I like your style - for some reason it reminds me of Ashley Wood, wicked loose! erik76 - Nice work! How often does one run into their old ride? I nearly sketched that exact ...

I'm still reeling from the sheer size of yesterday's local crawl. It was great to see such a turn out! I only wish I'd gotten to meet some more of the participants. Here are selected results from my day out. http://www.frostfyre.com/frostfyre/SketchCrawl%20XI_files/FerryPlaza_Ferry.jpg http://www.fr...

Bummer John - but good luck with the new job!

Hey Enrico, could you post a list of those who are on that particular book? That way those not on that booklet will know for sure to make alternate arrangements.

well that sounds good then, I'll just keep my sketch book in my bag til we're on board

Doh! I guess they've had problems with it in the past. If its against the rules then I guess we're outta luck on the discount - sorry folks
