On Saturday, I participated in my first sketch crawl. (A sketch crawl is day/time set aside for drawing, usually at a specific locale.) I joined the Los Angeles group at Hollywood and Highlands, and had a delightful time! We met around the fountain, and stayed in that area for most of the late morning. It was great to meet a bunch of new folks, and share in the experience with them. I loved watching other people’s reactions as they walked by us. Particularly the kids, who seemed to be drawn (ha!) to the artistic energy. I watched one little boy stand over Ivan’s shoulder for a good five minutes…leave, and then come back again. He was completely fascinated by what was going on, but couldn’t seem to work up the courage to ask any questions.
I stayed with the group until lunch, and then had to duck out to meet up with my husband and his folks, who were in town visiting for the weekend. I didn’t get as many drawings done as I thought I would, but I had so much fun. I think I will be back next time it rolls around. Note to self: next time, bring a hat.
Here are some of my sketches from the day:
