a few edits and adjustments to make. I am using Photoshop and InDesign to put
the zine together as I used for a previous zine.

InDesign. Here are some examples of how they look. I need to add handwritten text
too but I felt that the images should be the focus first. The writing will be based
on notes I made at the time of the trips and also something about the colours I
used on location. <o:p></o:p></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibxEo9DcCFStlpfhp9jFGEtGd4Ufxbvd65Bk3L7qsbXxOOdQJ9UiO4eSMDF8wrFmNclo1ymZ4VXuwnkJNJ5yZdj1-6gzaV4iJ9MJxkqnC9hGhlNzp608h94yhCwzVlfXavtc7TiE_IrZnBHeoot2zcI2k9MvN4DCu_CjuBH4sv8B7KAy-zw2MnY9TziQbP/s1920/LisWatkinsBlogOne.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1034" data-original-width="1920" height="172" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibxEo9DcCFStlpfhp9jFGEtGd4Ufxbvd65Bk3L7qsbXxOOdQJ9UiO4eSMDF8wrFmNclo1ymZ4VXuwnkJNJ5yZdj1-6gzaV4iJ9MJxkqnC9hGhlNzp608h94yhCwzVlfXavtc7TiE_IrZnBHeoot2zcI2k9MvN4DCu_CjuBH4sv8B7KAy-zw2MnY9TziQbP/s320/LisWatkinsBlogOne.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqgwCfTXo-wyqrXB_2oy7Hddl59yIReOWII9EJV_cFY0-Ujb3TZkO3C7FS0oZZ4YzuP1FPXLyRDLWhbWM-4XMuYHdv0gbIGk6AwsD0OcWYEWlAI_kcCbzdPo28qi3bXD9otaemfXfOIK_GEg81XfwHSKRdfK52-gIT8v1Jf4d-ks12BmELg4676TCmfmAK/s1920/LisWatkinsBlogTwo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1032" data-original-width="1920" height="172" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqgwCfTXo-wyqrXB_2oy7Hddl59yIReOWII9EJV_cFY0-Ujb3TZkO3C7FS0oZZ4YzuP1FPXLyRDLWhbWM-4XMuYHdv0gbIGk6AwsD0OcWYEWlAI_kcCbzdPo28qi3bXD9otaemfXfOIK_GEg81XfwHSKRdfK52-gIT8v1Jf4d-ks12BmELg4676TCmfmAK/s320/LisWatkinsBlogTwo.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPBR2DDrowDLx0S9HxA_zVwx7anKCDM61_07c8AgdNURbSmKa5Pwfem9suq6_mD7k8kpySBUQK1HItOyvk0f1SN5439ZqvdDRiXGneEhC-kHHgkNo5udx6eoReV_GTJuag9qRTO7dzEkODhVoBG-cTR6_gmMa-Wvwxcckn4FilbsvMIdD6U0D2yoctePmF/s1920/LisWatkinsBlogThree.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1031" data-original-width="1920" height="172" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPBR2DDrowDLx0S9HxA_zVwx7anKCDM61_07c8AgdNURbSmKa5Pwfem9suq6_mD7k8kpySBUQK1HItOyvk0f1SN5439ZqvdDRiXGneEhC-kHHgkNo5udx6eoReV_GTJuag9qRTO7dzEkODhVoBG-cTR6_gmMa-Wvwxcckn4FilbsvMIdD6U0D2yoctePmF/s320/LisWatkinsBlogThree.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMQbZRQumYMduN1WBq7mRVY6oditUuVVPAN49TM3IkaVq7d-LPQPBVso6lW-XS5AE2nR_2Vy5ZVAogtB4M8ZBDLT0DJOwT32qJTrl3e_qJU4XkvuOvJ5SxWcNOiC718RU-icPTIa5h9hgvwS22PmtQd38fGG6YxevPk3CXBmt3FuNY_Q8KJuKsNe-1yrdg/s1920/LisWatkinsBlogFive.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1035" data-original-width="1920" height="173" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMQbZRQumYMduN1WBq7mRVY6oditUuVVPAN49TM3IkaVq7d-LPQPBVso6lW-XS5AE2nR_2Vy5ZVAogtB4M8ZBDLT0DJOwT32qJTrl3e_qJU4XkvuOvJ5SxWcNOiC718RU-icPTIa5h9hgvwS22PmtQd38fGG6YxevPk3CXBmt3FuNY_Q8KJuKsNe-1yrdg/s320/LisWatkinsBlogFive.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /></div><p></p><p class="MsoNormal">The places featured are Toulouse, Barcelona, Locarno,

recollection of hearing about ‘Rendez-vous du Carnet de Voyage’ was via <span style="color: #2b00fe;"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/aheavysoul/?hl=en" target="_blank">artist Andrea Joseph</a>,</span> who wrote about her experience there on social media a number of
years ago. Since then I have visited twice and applied twice to exhibit. You
can read about one of the trips <a href="http://www.lineandwash.co.uk/2018/11/visiting-travel-sketchbook-festival-in.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #2b00fe;">here</span></a>. Last year I was lucky enough to
be selected for the show and invited to display my drawings alongside a hundred
or so other artists. As well as the artist stands, there are also films, talks
and demonstrations. I don’t know of any events like this in the UK and speaking
to people from other European countries, it seems like a specifically French
thing. I’d describe it as cross between a trade show, an art college degree
show with a heathy dose of village fete thrown in, as it a lovely community
feel. </span></div></div><div style="line-height: normal; margin-top: 0cm; text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-US" style="background: rgb(254, 255, 255);"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipXp_lEOX1TZpNt9HmE4sq_KPJG2uCkophI_B6Rewbk0tuwh6LVjmYHijma1OYGiYQSgiOJdROMOONeiUWUHY7B8LJeZZyqnZreN0hcdu-qFQ3IQaIB1QkXwwyb4kSc82Soi85Vc7miDFy-cy1kdt7Rzusco0rDH5ZP05TLmQiu-jVIg2ee4NOaDI8zg/s1440/Blog%20photo%201.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1440" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipXp_lEOX1TZpNt9HmE4sq_KPJG2uCkophI_B6Rewbk0tuwh6LVjmYHijma1OYGiYQSgiOJdROMOONeiUWUHY7B8LJeZZyqnZreN0hcdu-qFQ3IQaIB1QkXwwyb4kSc82Soi85Vc7miDFy-cy1kdt7Rzusco0rDH5ZP05TLmQiu-jVIg2ee4NOaDI8zg/s320/Blog%20photo%201.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><p class="Default" style="line-height: normal; margin-top: 0cm; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-US" style="background: rgb(254, 255, 255);">In the application
process, I proposed creating a 48-page zine based on sketches that I had made during
the pandemic. Entitled ‘London Greens’ it told the story of small journeys in
the capital during 2020 and 2021. As well as the zine, I had to create a
display and decided to make banners as they would be the easiest to transport
across to France, as I would be travelling by train.</span><span color="windowtext" style="background-color: #feffff; text-align: center;"> </span></span></p>
<p class="Default" style="line-height: normal; margin-top: 0cm; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: #feffff; text-align: center;">I decided to do the
layouts for the zine myself using InDesign and get it published by one of the
online printing companies. I rescanned everything and cleaned up the files,
resizing some as they were in a variety of sketchbooks. I used <a href="https://mixam.co.uk/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #2b00fe;">MixamUK</span></a> for the
printing and was pleased with the result. </span><span style="background-color: #feffff; text-align: center;"> </span><span style="background-color: #feffff; text-align: center;">I found this video on YouTube particularly

travelled to Clermont-Ferrand by train, taking the Eurostar from London to

I arrived just before 9am, there was already a queue forming at the venue door
and the opening day was very busy! Lots of school children and college students
visited and I hadn’t quite envisaged the amount of footfall. They asked lots of
questions, wanted me to make drawings for them and to practice their English.
In return I asked some of them to draw in my sketchbook.</span></span></p>
<p class="Body" style="text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I
had been invited to give a talk to a group of university students between 5-6pm
so I headed to one of the venue’s rooms. I’d prepared a short slide
presentation about my work and process, and I answered questions from the group
who were studying tourism and publishing. All in English, luckily for me!</span></span></p>

<p class="Body" style="text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Although
a lot of the visitors are people that draw, it is a big event in the local
calendar so many people come along from the city and surrounding area. The
event is also popular with the Urban Sketching community and I met and talked
with lots of people, some of who I hadn’t met in person before. So it was
really nice in that respect. I signed lots of copies of the zines and by the
end of the day I had sold out of the stock which I had brought with me.</span></span></p>
<p class="Body" style="text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I
managed a short lunch break when one of the visitors from the UK kindly came
and sat in for me on the stand.</span></span></p>
<p class="Body" style="text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit;">When
the doors closed at 7.30pm everyone headed off to have a celebratory meal
together in the city. Myself and my trusty assistant had a lovely time chatting
with some of the other exhibitors and eating the local delicacy of ‘truffade,‘
a filing baked dish of potatoes and cheese.</span></span></p><p class="Body" style="text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-US"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0AyEQsTPZnHfwb_b18KeWCj7iLpZbbu8AYOAHdDDDVT754N0KBpsZaZ9uBo377SVssc1PruPuK84KgGWPIXPF0Li0Dx6vzG8kXk3uT0PFQwQEqRrltNtvlbvCrBBtqlZUc8oAiGnz1BA-JNl4LerGra4IoguLWNoq-8sY8zKCfyBsnklOAPetQnUPRA/s1181/Blog%20photo%2011.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1181" data-original-width="1181" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0AyEQsTPZnHfwb_b18KeWCj7iLpZbbu8AYOAHdDDDVT754N0KBpsZaZ9uBo377SVssc1PruPuK84KgGWPIXPF0Li0Dx6vzG8kXk3uT0PFQwQEqRrltNtvlbvCrBBtqlZUc8oAiGnz1BA-JNl4LerGra4IoguLWNoq-8sY8zKCfyBsnklOAPetQnUPRA/s320/Blog%20photo%2011.jpg" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">In the catalogue</td></tr></tbody></table><b><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></b></span></p><p class="Body" style="text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-US"><b><span style="font-family: inherit;">Sunday</span></b></span></p>

though the zines were sold out, I still had lots of visitors to the stand.
There were more drawings to make and some people returned to show me their own
sketchbooks which was lovely. It is possible to buy a weekend ticket which
gives admission for all three days and if you have the time, I think it is a
really good way to see the show. There is a lot to take in and it can feel a
little overwhelming to do it all in one go. Some of the visitors from the Urban
Sketcher community combined time at the venue with bursts of sketching nearby.
Although I have to say it is very cold in Clermont-Ferrand at this time of the
year! There are a few museums and galleries for indoor sketching too, including
the Michelin Museum, as the company has its roots in the city.</span></span></p>
<p class="Body" style="text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I
managed a very quick look around the other displays during the last hour of the
festival. It had been so busy over the past three days that I hadn’t really had
a chance to see everybody’s work properly. At 6pm the doors closed for the
final time and we took the display down. That bit never seems to take as long!</span><span face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="Body" style="text-align: left;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjW6ocymb83IQqTpfxPeF-MpF-WfT4Wm0u8sTWDwsawaz8_8EqGp_QE4k1xsEIa9N92SyLtWOroWH7M_ybQRY6N-hPzm54qSltQB93FH6WehQ7WtmSRAdY9G93W9LNmGDWZ_j38hy8skMr4SJYn0mHiN0BkhZdDYHZOUi_fVwZ-6s2ca2sYRjyqMqBIuw/s3000/Blog%20photo%209.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1908" data-original-width="3000" height="204" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjW6ocymb83IQqTpfxPeF-MpF-WfT4Wm0u8sTWDwsawaz8_8EqGp_QE4k1xsEIa9N92SyLtWOroWH7M_ybQRY6N-hPzm54qSltQB93FH6WehQ7WtmSRAdY9G93W9LNmGDWZ_j38hy8skMr4SJYn0mHiN0BkhZdDYHZOUi_fVwZ-6s2ca2sYRjyqMqBIuw/s320/Blog%20photo%209.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Sketch of me sitting on the stand by <a href="https://www.instagram.com/anneroseoosterbaan3060/?hl=en" target="_blank">Anne Rose Oosterbaan</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><p></p><p class="Body" style="text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: inherit;">By

of a current application process. As a small business and sole trader, it is
not something I already in place so I thought I would record how I went about
it here, in case it could be useful for others. It is not, at the moment, a
statutory requirement. Of course, in my personal and home life, green issues
are something I do think about often, I am sure we all do, but I had not really
delved into it formally in my business.<p></p>

<p class="Body"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk125115200;"><span lang="EN-US">I
create hand-drawn images and maps mainly using the traditional analog materials
of paper, pen and watercolour for clients on the travel and event sectors. I
also give workshops both in the UK and overseas, sell printed zines and license
my work to be made into prints. I have a presence online via a website,
portfolio sites and social media channels. I would like to work in a way that
means I can behave responsibly and aim to have the least negative impact on the
environment. I have made an audit of my current practices and have looked at
where I can improve my performance.</span></span> </p>

Anniversary Weekend, I was given a ‘goodie bag’ containing a variety of art
materials. I decided that instead of just looking at them and then putting them
to one side, I would use them throughout the summer. It meant removing my tried
and trusted watercolour tin as I knew that I would revert back to that if I
found it difficult to use the new supplies! You can see some of the experiments

think they had a big influence on much of my work over the summer. The texture of the
watercolours is quite creamy, nice to use and, as I am always looking for colours to use when drawing
architecture, felt really useful.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyi_Da8HtsEDOneU4wYK3qt4EAWi3zHjAwK33TuJOFGTRiTRhHeJ0fVvZXzfFXSdC1ADPYA1twJGZ_6Xg0cfr7OjdOMDEh54tPFn0qinE5YlJTAh7ICbs7XQuGbwr9KDzl4fukiegIvsGsQA715zlx-kn2o9HpAXP2L9Cx9XHiGDTNmy7CWLFIOFRQew/s4000/Daniel%20Smith%201.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4000" data-original-width="3000" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyi_Da8HtsEDOneU4wYK3qt4EAWi3zHjAwK33TuJOFGTRiTRhHeJ0fVvZXzfFXSdC1ADPYA1twJGZ_6Xg0cfr7OjdOMDEh54tPFn0qinE5YlJTAh7ICbs7XQuGbwr9KDzl4fukiegIvsGsQA715zlx-kn2o9HpAXP2L9Cx9XHiGDTNmy7CWLFIOFRQew/s320/Daniel%20Smith%201.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://danielsmith.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #e06666;">DANIEL SMITH DOT SHEET</span></a></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibPmVLMCa4w5ZyRDUSHH52OE6KkSJ60C9lMu1ilAZhZiluw4M3ulHjcFSuJIdW6K4JJ8bXGvasAzQbga9snzxb_l-wIeOIm92ItIPGF_AN1XzCYvc6R8n2_66dgPsrByfPf9yToGSAeCRA2Czen9luU_o5IMr-drl1_nwjZyyjEyarJoQMCj-mlyVW_g/s4000/Daniel%20Smith%202.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4000" data-original-width="3000" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibPmVLMCa4w5ZyRDUSHH52OE6KkSJ60C9lMu1ilAZhZiluw4M3ulHjcFSuJIdW6K4JJ8bXGvasAzQbga9snzxb_l-wIeOIm92ItIPGF_AN1XzCYvc6R8n2_66dgPsrByfPf9yToGSAeCRA2Czen9luU_o5IMr-drl1_nwjZyyjEyarJoQMCj-mlyVW_g/s320/Daniel%20Smith%202.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This was actually a gift from the USk UK Leeds Weekend, with colours from the sombre palette of Nicholas Lopez.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.winsornewton.com/uk/graphic-art/fineliners/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #e06666;">WINSOR AND NEWTON FINELINER</span></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">The fineliner I was given was a 0.1 size and is a decent

painting. One of a small group of four people, it was an interesting experience, with demos and time for
practical colour mixing. Comprehensive notes from the day were useful as I feel that I have only
just scratched the surface and would benefit from spending more time experimenting with colour.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p></div><p class="MsoNormal"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkksU9yGVO8WQVby2uroOARVQoosxjenwhPCzJVHbbYPjdOqkuzJUbwbxOD-14OYRZ5HfhVPjlVVAIEF-hB-n1AO4ZhYrp7Yt2dXSxo-Nu1Av0cqyhjivh5t3my386ZagW6PrOkDTEyf9ylVUKhxAloUSoKvSaIPJ9EiQgvUiOH2lONFM6kUYhaYik0Q/s1575/Colour%20Tutor%203.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1575" data-original-width="1181" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkksU9yGVO8WQVby2uroOARVQoosxjenwhPCzJVHbbYPjdOqkuzJUbwbxOD-14OYRZ5HfhVPjlVVAIEF-hB-n1AO4ZhYrp7Yt2dXSxo-Nu1Av0cqyhjivh5t3my386ZagW6PrOkDTEyf9ylVUKhxAloUSoKvSaIPJ9EiQgvUiOH2lONFM6kUYhaYik0Q/s320/Colour%20Tutor%203.jpg" width="240" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg__iZ78Md8m0whakNjHAurxJCQvwZxhK2UuVHWXGMDf2hX2J7IBDTzjY2k-NipE6UBCc1KleRR9lV-mIC4aJdIoNqhr7N0oFoDQ-vMKkOn-M8JldYbnh7lYMeibBu2A9hCojC3e8lahP_EVDgXf44NeQDpGqY2V-AJU8F7BpAuJlw1dMFBcQ40N-ULyg/s1575/Colour%20Tutor%202.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1575" data-original-width="1181" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg__iZ78Md8m0whakNjHAurxJCQvwZxhK2UuVHWXGMDf2hX2J7IBDTzjY2k-NipE6UBCc1KleRR9lV-mIC4aJdIoNqhr7N0oFoDQ-vMKkOn-M8JldYbnh7lYMeibBu2A9hCojC3e8lahP_EVDgXf44NeQDpGqY2V-AJU8F7BpAuJlw1dMFBcQ40N-ULyg/s320/Colour%20Tutor%202.jpg" width="240" /></a></p></div><br /><br />Lis Watkinshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13608053710844394588noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4613741533260431302.post-30576054477295214572022-09-01T14:02:00.002+01:002022-09-01T14:02:22.417+01:00A sketching weekend in Liverpool<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhNhEGAoWD937hPp3iUDkMoxXiQJTfBBbqcg1DtJ_6k6j2FYjE_LbyQ6MSWJ854vos2_30Gx8TsZLhTI9_B7rghLrK46xt3uaKVxq1hRtrswiB5edfEbFOBvGo5YXpPf76LdKtSXcQeJ63owcvo_ZfvUYUJ-XgSaMmu3k3CYXkuK7egbKmaVgH3c11nw/s1732/LisWatkinsLiverpoolAlbertDockSmallFile.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1181" data-original-width="1732" height="218" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhNhEGAoWD937hPp3iUDkMoxXiQJTfBBbqcg1DtJ_6k6j2FYjE_LbyQ6MSWJ854vos2_30Gx8TsZLhTI9_B7rghLrK46xt3uaKVxq1hRtrswiB5edfEbFOBvGo5YXpPf76LdKtSXcQeJ63owcvo_ZfvUYUJ-XgSaMmu3k3CYXkuK7egbKmaVgH3c11nw/s320/LisWatkinsLiverpoolAlbertDockSmallFile.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p class="MsoNormal">Alongside a group of Urban Sketching friends from London, Manchester
and Leeds, I headed off to Liverpool for a drawing weekend in August. We had a
great itinerary drawn up by <a href="https://www.instagram.com/karenjjonesjohn/"><span style="color: #e06666;">Karen Jones</span></a> which centred on three distinct areas
of the city: the riverside, the cultural area and the Georgian Quarter. Having
never visited the city before and not knowing quite what to expect, I was
really impressed by the grand architecture.</p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-FnfbxHLGS3Gjaez9eOvQPk_tVkFJrGhAw6w394HFyG_g8sCgBvU9Vf5jRc0XIQE2_6J2HEzgVvzafJV3O-pagxKoS-6GtJSC7fbCi7X0qsmcYAdU83JJW3fbDpKphaWna1TawDK2DKQoUUMr0MsfkBKVdkGUZaqQeH__a9KXufBrH5_TehpzhDaofA/s1181/LisWatkinsStLukesBombedOutChurchSmallFile.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="912" data-original-width="1181" height="247" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-FnfbxHLGS3Gjaez9eOvQPk_tVkFJrGhAw6w394HFyG_g8sCgBvU9Vf5jRc0XIQE2_6J2HEzgVvzafJV3O-pagxKoS-6GtJSC7fbCi7X0qsmcYAdU83JJW3fbDpKphaWna1TawDK2DKQoUUMr0MsfkBKVdkGUZaqQeH__a9KXufBrH5_TehpzhDaofA/s320/LisWatkinsStLukesBombedOutChurchSmallFile.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: left;">I choose to experiment with the materials I had received in

results can be random and unexpected with things going wrong. But by playing with
the different materials, the ‘mistakes’ can often lead to discovering effects
that can be useful and surprising. I found myself using a quite different colour palette to usual. Working on the larger single sheets of paper
was awkward in the sense of carrying them around and sharing work at the
throwdown was tricky, especially in windy conditions.<o:p></o:p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSmYSxb6dMg1w0V2R_AwfJNuIRFDcP3MEVaDKWXV07tWC8XCKUG0GRyThX0-kYQ5bt4TL_mKGQxF_R6PXxXn1IukFJeUWlupAj98d3t1HgduKejEe9-4f9jxG1Pa98jKHP1JJMzuAzEqWZezH9D9_MAYm9_BqWjfx-MOTnDdiLlHCKkw3o0xAqMUGcZg/s1181/LisWatkinsWalkerArtGallerySmalFile.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="564" data-original-width="1181" height="153" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSmYSxb6dMg1w0V2R_AwfJNuIRFDcP3MEVaDKWXV07tWC8XCKUG0GRyThX0-kYQ5bt4TL_mKGQxF_R6PXxXn1IukFJeUWlupAj98d3t1HgduKejEe9-4f9jxG1Pa98jKHP1JJMzuAzEqWZezH9D9_MAYm9_BqWjfx-MOTnDdiLlHCKkw3o0xAqMUGcZg/s320/LisWatkinsWalkerArtGallerySmalFile.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p></div><p class="MsoNormal">Many thanks to the USk Liverpool chapter for meeting up with

<p class="Body"></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span lang="EN-US">Most places in the centre of the city are easy
to walk to but if you need to go further, buses are a great way to get around and
a “bonobus’ ticket, for 10 trips, is good value.</span> </li><li><span lang="EN-US">The free Citymapper app covers the Malaga area</span> </li><li><span lang="EN-US">The Musée Picasso Malaga is free for the last
two hours on a Sunday afternoon.</span></li><li><span lang="EN-US">A ticket for the Alcazaba gets you into the
Castillo too.</span></li></ul><p></p>
<p class="Body"><b>Food</b></p>
<p class="Body"><span lang="EN-US">I’m sure there are so many great places to eat
but here are a few that I tried and would recommend:</span> </p>
<p class="Body"><span lang="EN-US">Casa Lola -
Ate there three times and each time enjoyed it, including tasty tapas
and a wonderful goats cheese salad. Their specialty of thin slices of
aubergine, deep fired and served with molasses may sound strange but you need
to try it!</span></p>
<p class="Body"><span lang="EN-US">El Pimpi - It’s in all the guide books and there
was always a queue but still worth going to. The surroundings are part of the
experience, a rambling interior and outside terrace with views of the
Amphitheatre and Alcazaba. Ate a variety of tapas which was much more filling
than it looked!</span></p>
<p class="Body"><span lang="EN-US">Casa Aranda - A lovely café selling churros and
chocolate which seems to have taken up most of the little shops in the alley
where it is based. Enjoyed breakfast there a couple of times and would
recommend for the food and people watching.</span></p>
<p class="Body"><span lang="EN-US">Panderia Cafeteria Granier - Nice little bakery
selling sandwiches and cakes with friendly service.</span></p></div>Lis Watkinshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13608053710844394588noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4613741533260431302.post-90201276847437328052022-05-05T18:32:00.001+01:002022-05-05T18:32:08.723+01:00City Sketching - A step-by-step article for Artists & Illustrators magazine<p><span style="font-family: inherit;">It was lovely to be

the mantra of the worldwide Urban Sketchers (USk) community, originally started
in an online forum by Seattle-based artist and illustrator Gabi Campanario. The
London USk Chapter formed in 2012 with six members - <a href="https://www.james-hobbs.co.uk/" target="_blank">James Hobbs</a>,
<a href="https://makingamark.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">KatherineTyrrell</a>, <a href="https://www.zheniavasilievdesign.com/" target="_blank">Zhenia Vasiliev</a>, <a href="https://adebanjialade.co.uk/" target="_blank">Adebanji Alade</a>, Barry Jackson and </span><span lang="PT" style="mso-ansi-language: PT;"><a href="http://opryymak.com/" target="_blank">Olha Pryymak</a></span><span lang="EN-US"> - and
this year celebrates its tenth anniversary. The London chapter’s popularity has
grown and at the meet up in February this year, there were over sixty people
sketching throughout the day.</span></p>
<p class="Body"><span lang="EN-US">After starting a drawing blog a decade ago, I
was so excited to discover the community and find that there were other people
in different parts of the world who liked sitting on street corners, drawing
their urban surroundings and recording everyday life in their sketchbooks!</span> </p>
<p class="Body"><span lang="EN-US">It took going to several events before I started
to recognise faces and chat to others in the group. It doesn’t matter if you
are a complete beginner or an experienced artist: all are welcome. After we
have finished drawing, there is usually a chance to go to a cafe or pub to
share sketchbooks, talk art materials and get to know each other a little
better.</span></p>
<p class="Body"><span lang="EN-US">There is a line from American poet Mary Oliver
who writes, “To pay attention, this is our endless and proper work.” As an
Urban Sketcher, I feel this sums up what I am doing when I am out drawing on
location. Regardless if where I am feels quite ordinary, I notice so much about
the people and places around me.</span> </p>
<p class="Body"><span lang="EN-US">The sketch in the step-by-step photographs was
drawn at the February London USk meet up. The location was Sloane Square in
well-heeled Chelsea and the weather obliged to make it a lovely day for sitting
outside and drawing in sketchbooks. I moved away from the main Square and
wandered around the nearby streets before settling on this view of one of the
very grand red brick mansion blocks. A low windowsill on a building being
renovated seemed a handy spot to draw from, so I perched there to make this
sketch.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="Body"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhx4zdqMfzaY7-qR3iXGUbUTeR345HSyO6X6bfr2UpB7k3GRWT-BYBAq6Z7Ll8BTLVOG2uyEkUQj9GRBo0rQUqQynenplZiPZLBn-fG9VFsfzpdFRkKUCbCsR8HwZZ1JdjClXFc0EfSH8qZo_DiaSpjRyjaOClNaHg9kx466bO7_KLVquptxmmzIzzwrA/s4000/LisWatkinsA&IMagazineImageOne.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3000" data-original-width="4000" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhx4zdqMfzaY7-qR3iXGUbUTeR345HSyO6X6bfr2UpB7k3GRWT-BYBAq6Z7Ll8BTLVOG2uyEkUQj9GRBo0rQUqQynenplZiPZLBn-fG9VFsfzpdFRkKUCbCsR8HwZZ1JdjClXFc0EfSH8qZo_DiaSpjRyjaOClNaHg9kx466bO7_KLVquptxmmzIzzwrA/s320/LisWatkinsA&IMagazineImageOne.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b style="text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-US">Step One</span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;">I started with some very quick pencil lines,

find this adds more dimension to the surface of the building.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMg_O7KUX66vuV9VeuSxFkMHHb504OmCnlFSFl9q5Fk_Yw-Bd6J3zPgLdj0Rule4zLHd1jbjVLzBtai6EUEDNcmWr3Gik9fR00GurSbSzcNU737eLlWYNqwKiqQ0H_i2qzT-QsCr93fPKm7uzFuudWp1QvNWw-vN0tjB7RtkQ1ZnwJfWTI7pyFTo-QCw/s4000/LisWatkinsA&IMagazineImageFour.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3000" data-original-width="4000" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMg_O7KUX66vuV9VeuSxFkMHHb504OmCnlFSFl9q5Fk_Yw-Bd6J3zPgLdj0Rule4zLHd1jbjVLzBtai6EUEDNcmWr3Gik9fR00GurSbSzcNU737eLlWYNqwKiqQ0H_i2qzT-QsCr93fPKm7uzFuudWp1QvNWw-vN0tjB7RtkQ1ZnwJfWTI7pyFTo-QCw/s320/LisWatkinsA&IMagazineImageFour.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b>Step Four</b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;">I realised that I needed to add more of the
street scene, so I used my fineliner pen to add details to the roof, parked
cars, balconies and railings. It is always nice to include all the street
‘furniture’ in an urban sketch.

the water brush to indicate the roof tops and used the fineliner pen to add
some pattern from the many balconies which served as a way to link in with the

if I have missed out any important details. Sometimes I will take a photo on my
phone as this can help view the sketch in a different way. Turning the
sketchbook upside down is another way to check how things are going. I often
use a white gel pen to work on top of the watercolour at this stage too.</span></div><span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTx679QuXiBVdGg_dMXtscsMCPmnzyljnj2NaI5Rw0C161ZTG05mwu7i4B4J1W6Xgb5An1vyNxuGKzOPxmVK4iKfp3EHvjc9VCtk16jonzaPkSK5ZSWhd7g4SXU68NaD89KCgZhk5yVvqgnSosNsdWlb3AI84rEyclc7LeiXKA0dxBWA637ukiXSSA3w/s4000/LisWatkinsA&IMagazineImageSeven.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3000" data-original-width="4000" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTx679QuXiBVdGg_dMXtscsMCPmnzyljnj2NaI5Rw0C161ZTG05mwu7i4B4J1W6Xgb5An1vyNxuGKzOPxmVK4iKfp3EHvjc9VCtk16jonzaPkSK5ZSWhd7g4SXU68NaD89KCgZhk5yVvqgnSosNsdWlb3AI84rEyclc7LeiXKA0dxBWA637ukiXSSA3w/s320/LisWatkinsA&IMagazineImageSeven.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b>Step Seven</b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;">I have found that adding the date and location

Her style is colourful and playful and I really enjoyed working my way through the exercises. Mixing up the gouache colours felt very therapeutic, relaxing and fun! The audio is in Spanish with English subtitles and apart from the exercise themselves, she talks about influences and inspiration. If you don’t know her work, I’d recommend you check it out.

a former wool storage warehouse originally built in 1889, which has now been
converted into individual workspaces. It is nice to see how developers can
restore and reuse existing buildings, retain lots of original features but
still making them suitable for modern businesses.</span> </p>

<p class="MsoNormal">As well as lots of sketching, there were also visits to
local restaurants, hikes across the stunning landscape plus free time in the
afternoons. It was great to meet so many of the Swiss Urban Sketcher community
and I was made to feel very welcome. Mario is planning future events so do get
in touch with him if you’d like more information.<o:p></o:p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrxKYlZiyAUHRZTnodVfcuvS9YYsE2Ca6kuRUt0vXa6fkroRAn3bfgrhuREdfD2uipSocQXDW_VpDwQJV5TiB7TGkFOpfCSY-TE4ia9aeVz3IWfbFz8nMEESJ19NCeirSF4JNhVENBNKpS/s1181/switzerland+4+small+file.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="738" data-original-width="1181" height="250" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrxKYlZiyAUHRZTnodVfcuvS9YYsE2Ca6kuRUt0vXa6fkroRAn3bfgrhuREdfD2uipSocQXDW_VpDwQJV5TiB7TGkFOpfCSY-TE4ia9aeVz3IWfbFz8nMEESJ19NCeirSF4JNhVENBNKpS/w400-h250/switzerland+4+small+file.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>

week, including another attempt at ‘doing a <a href="https://www.instagram.com/swasky/?hl=en" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Swasky</span></a>’ in
drawing the very picturesque Intragna Piazza. I’ll get the hang of the corners

an illustrator is my job and the way that I earn my living. My clients realise
that they can get a lot of value from the hand-drawn images I produce, so no, I
don’t. Very occasionally I will donate a piece of work to a cause that I
support but this is the exception not the rule.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="Body" style="text-align: left;"><span face=""Calibri",sans-serif" lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p><p class="Body" style="text-align: left;"><b><span face=""Calibri",sans-serif" lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt;">I’ve

choose the illustrator that they want to illustrate a book so most likely, no.

<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">In my own sketches, I tend to
leave a lot of white space on the page, which I find helps contribute to the
final image. Often referred to as ‘negative space.’ I prefer to call it
‘positive space!’ It can be a useful technique when you want to focus on a
particular area when drawing a busy scene. Here are some examples of how I have
used this technique personally.<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqgnRuG_xBJu_Q-WsAxzpApfyD02wurkaNX2qbSPbROBvesu6wlhpzfp5G4sFeBnu23QAWqzq_js0pXN9_ZyFQe8Gg0yJWXBc45m3Nq2G4FqPXT76Z5d3IcX-9jJu_cin6_WCJ5WMPFp7i/s1181/Worksheet+page+5+for+instagram.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1181" data-original-width="1181" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqgnRuG_xBJu_Q-WsAxzpApfyD02wurkaNX2qbSPbROBvesu6wlhpzfp5G4sFeBnu23QAWqzq_js0pXN9_ZyFQe8Gg0yJWXBc45m3Nq2G4FqPXT76Z5d3IcX-9jJu_cin6_WCJ5WMPFp7i/w400-h400/Worksheet+page+5+for+instagram.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Choose a view that has something

TOGETHER</b></u><o:p></o:p></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Choose a view that you’d like to
spend 30 - 40 minutes drawing and try to use all the techniques we have talked
about to make the drawing. A few things to remember:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Watercolour dries lighter, so be
bold when you start.</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">If it helps, use a pencil to
quickly draw your shape before painting.</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Allowing watercolour shapes to
dry will mean crisp edges for the next layer of watercolour or fineliner.</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">There are no mistakes, just happy
accidents!</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Enjoy and have fun!</span></li></ul><p></p>
