Urban Sketchbooking emphasizes storytelling that conveys a sense of place or a moment in time through drawings completed from direct observations.
Bring your supplies (sketchbook or paper, pencil, pen or other drawing implement—limited materials are available if you need them) and join us outside in downtown Belfast to produce still life, figure, or architecture subjects in your sketchbook. Participants will spend some time sketching and then reconvene to talk about what everyone observed.
All ages welcome! Don’t forget sunscreen, a hat, and a water bottle. Contact the organizer, Joan Bickelhaupt (joanbickelhaupt@gmail.com), with any questions.
Joan Bickelhaupt is an artist/educator who currently leads arty gatherings where she encourages creative tinkering. Joan is hosting Urban Sketching meetups for adults and family groups in a variety of locations as a way to share her experience as a traveling artist.
