Continuing my catch-up of sketches from the past few months…

Today I’m sharing highlights from my sketches of Sydney City which I do on Wednesdays in the late afternoon before going to a mid-week meeting at my church. Some weeks I have too much work to make it a sketching outing, but I do try to sneak in a sketch most weeks.

These were all done to fit in with our Sketching Adventure Community monthly themes:

Unused Supplies in January, Value in February, Three in March and Framing in April.

And once again I’m sharing them in random order.

St Mary’s Cathedral using framing

Empty foodcourt using 2 x 3 media – 3 x Inktense and 3 x Tombows

3 layers of people in Haymarket – three layers at St Andrews Cathedral and some framing.

Three trees in The Rocks and making some friends from WA and VIC who sat and sketched with me.

Town Hall – starting with the darks (part of our Value theme) and demonstrating that value is more important than hue as I used three different coloured Tombows in the dark area.

Empty Foodcourt – using Values and starting with the darks.

Framing using a tree and garden bed of Hyde Park looking towards the Australian Museum.

And the last sketch in this article was done back in January using my Unused Supplies and three inktense pencils and three Tombows. It was a super quick sketch done before meeting up with my friend Olga from Auckland. I love having dry and quick drying media for super quick sketches in half-opportunities.
