Listening to radio 4 this morning.  Radio 4 live if you want to look for it .   A group I have not heard of before URBAN SKETCHERS   were talking about themselves.  It is now almost world wide Artists who sketch the world around them ,in  situ.  Interesting programme and some great sketches on their website.  A flourishing group in London and one in Manchester, urbansketchers.org or go and look at their F B page urbansketchers group.   Of interest? 
I only found the two Urban Sketch groups in this area recently and have enjoyed both. One is Winchester, very loose no heirarchy, every Wed morning in around the city. Generall a bunch of ladies, of a certain age but damn good sketchers and also the much larger and younger Southampton group, Saturdays and more spread in places. Having been kicked out of my art club I intend to keep going, as I enjoy groups and enjoy being lone sketching what I want and must keep the arty juices flowing. The next one will be interesting as a certain person in the usual crowd is one who has hounded me out of the club
Thanks Sylvia. She a very bitter person I think. Good to hear your week with Dellar was good and looking forward to seeing some results
Didn't realise Urban Sketching has been going so long - I only read about it a few months ago. Not for me as I prefer my comfort. Enjoy your next sketch Derek - never mind Madam Bitter, just rise above it all.
Enjoy you next outing Derek - ignore Madame Bitter. Didn't know urban sketching has been going so long. It's not for me as I enjoy my comfort too much.
Thanks Adele
