What a great 2015 year for Toronto Urban Sketchers!
I am
very happy to be part of such a wonderful group of sketchers!!!!
I just wanted to share my final challenge for the year. I challenged myself to a night sketch (in the
cold)! It was at one of my favourite
places to sketch – Evergreen Brick Works – with the music and sounds of their
evening play called “Tails from the City”.
I tried to capture the string of seasonal lights that was
decorating the entrance plaza. One of
the hardest things was that I could not see the colours that I was applying to my
sketch because it was to dark. I
therefore took some time at home to fix up my values. I will have to find a place with more light
or bring a flashlight with me the next time.
Here are some of my favourite Christmas ornaments decorating our family tree this year.
I always wanted to try out the watercolour iridescent
medium….I found the right place to add and play with it on the gingerbread
house.
