Sketch group for sketching. As a group. In Perth.
The sketch group for sketching. As a group. In Perth. has been born kicking! Created yesterday and it’s already held an event. People have been talking about getting regular sketch groups going in Perth for ages, and now it’s happening. The group had its first meetup today, which was basically Jeff and I telling everyone we were meeting at Hyde Park to draw/paint, and anyone else interested was welcome.
I bet Jeff that noone else would come.
I was pleasantly surprised when 3 other people came along, 2 of which were complete strangers to Jeff and myself! Thus is the power of the interwebs.
And here is a picture – Party of 5 (incl me)!
We’ll probably make Saturdays a regular thing so join the group if you want to join us.
I used the opportunity to do a watercolour painting for Mother’s Day. I referenced a black and white Daily Mirror (Sydney) newspaper clipping from 1985, just after I was born. Mum and I made page 5 with a very punny article entitled “Boxer’s a champ at just eight pounds.”
