Sheffield Urban Sketches

 
 
 
Autumn is coming. When I was sketching on the street in Sheffield, I could feel the autumn characteristic colors everywhere. I’m not good at using watercolor pencils to sketch, but however, they might just express the right feeling I was looking for: wet, cloudy, and the rainy weather. 

Halloween Sketchcrawl

Fortunately, I visited Lynne’s house to participate the Halloween party on last Saturday. It was the first time I join such a local activity. And it was not only the native social event, but also the sketchcrawl. We sketched the creative decorated delicacies, and then we drew each other, everyone has prepared elaborately and they all dressed up uniquely on that night. It was really a gorgeous and memorable event.

Halloween greeting cards design





I have been away from Birmingham on 27thOct to take part in the Halloween sketchcrawl event, and traveled around Sheffield for 3 days. Before I departed, I had prepared some Halloween cards creating by myself as a gift to send some new friends on our Halloween Party. Hope they all have had an amazing night on that day.

Portrait sketches


I went to Millennium Point with my friend yesterday. We sketched some people at the café point and school library. They moved and changed their positions very fast, but it is important to sketch out the main outline in different situations.

Sketching at Yorkshire Sculpture Park

I attended a local event called Sketchcrawl on last Sunday. The weather on that day was pretty good, and fortunately I met Lynne and lots of other artists at Yorkshire Sculpture Park. It’s really a great opportunity to practice observational drawing skill from nature site and getting inspirations from other talents. I spent one extra day staying at YSP in order to sketch out as much as I can.
