Houston, Texas (RESULTS)

5 people showed up today to crawl in Houston. We started out at Inversion and moved on from there. More pictures to come......

HELP! HELP! My family & I r looking for y'all so we can participate! Just went to Inversion & nobody knew where u had gone. So where r u now? Hopehopehope it's not over yet!

Sadly it's "over" for me. You might try Agora Coffeehouse on Westheimer.

I think all the sketchers have gone home by now. We got an early start (some of us before 9:30 AM), so we had been at it for nearly 4 hours. We started early because it's so hot in the afternoon. That way we could sketch for a while, and have lunch if we wanted and get going before it got really hot and humid. Maybe we can do longer afternoon sessions in the fall and winter after the weather cools down.

Here are some photos of where we sketched and had lunch or coffee:

Got a little coverage from the Houston Press. Hope this brings more people out for the next crawl.

Yes, Sketchcat, I hope the press coverage generates even more interest. I just hope interest is maintained in the intervening time until the next Sketchcrawl in October. I know that Saturday's Sketchcrawl has motivated me to do a lot more sketching in the meantime. I picked up a new Moleskine watercolor sketchbook at Texas Art Supply by Cafe Inversion. I plan to start filling it with sketches in short order.
