| Sketches from the morning session |
I
was recently honored to be a Seattle 10x10 instructor for the tenth
anniversary series of urban sketchers workshops. My workshop took place
in two sessions on May 20, 2017, morning from 9-12:00 noon and
afternoon from 2-5pm. This is a "dual reportage" of the morning with
personal observations as well as a report on the workshop itself from my
viewpoint as the instructor.
From the morning session: I'm leaving the original
pencil outlines of my modular layout pattern so students can see how I
used (or ignored) them. I added color later to the original 3 sketches
done on site and added narrative, headlines and ephemera to complete my
montage.
I collected 3 pieces of ephemera for the
morning: a business card with earthy image from Terra Plata, parking
stub for the day, and part of one of the ID cards I made for students.

From the afternoon session: I ended up with more of a radial layout this time, ignoring most of my penciled in layout frames. Again, I'm combining my personal observations with reportage of the workshop.
I added three pieces of ephemera from the afternoon: my USk business card, partial card from one of my students' ID badge, the demo page from my spiral sketchbook with the actual demonstration sketches done on site for the afternoon class, glued on.
Thanks, everyone, for being such an inspiring group of students. It was
great fun sharing a few tips and sketching our "sunny" city of Seattle
with you!
