On the way to Int. Sketchcrawl

International Sketchcrawl Day

January 19, 2013 by ErinHill Sketching

This is the 38th International Sketchcrawl. The idea is to sketch whatever happens over that day, and share on line….. Jenny, Ethna and I caught the 8.50am ferry to Circular Quay, and worked our way up those lovely old stone steps to Macquarie St ( reminds of the ones in Montmartre) then through the Botanical Gardens to Palm Court Centre. A big group gathered and Young, one of our Saturday class was excited to be among them. This is big. […]

International Sketchcrawl Sydney

July 15, 2012 by ErinHill Sketching

I don’t very often get pictures of myself sketching. It’s usually me on the end of the camera, so thank you Jennifer from Sydney Sketchclub. That’s Elaine from class there too. Jenny was somewhere nearby and Ethna wasn’t well so hope she sees this. It’s so lovely that some of our class feel they can now go sketching with the best. Alissa was there  - who came sketching toys with the class and shared her talents that day recently. I […]

International Sketchcrawl – Cockatoo Island Sydney

April 21, 2012 by ErinHill Sketching

It was Sketch Club and International Sketchcrawl day. At last I had a Saturday free, and I could take part. The day dawned with a complete fog-out. My biggest concern was that the ferry would be able to see it’s way across to the city and over to the island. Yes it could see just fine, so Ethna and I hopped on a fairly early one and made our way there, holding off having coffee till we had arrived. The […]

The famous Harry de Wheels Pie Cart

The Famous Harry de Wheels Pie Cart

March 11, 2012 by ErinHill Sketching

Managed to get to Sketch Club today. I can do the Sunday ones if all the stars are aligned. This was a very appealing place to sketch. Everyone met in front of the Art Gallery NSW and trotted down the steps to Woolloomooloo. How about that for a place name! It’s aboriginal but I need to look up the meaning – sometime. The idea was to sketch any of the subjects along the old restored wharf with it’s line up […]

Elephants, Mothers & Babies

Elafmephants & other Jungle Animals

November 22, 2011 by ErinHill Sketching

That’s what I called elephants when I was six. I still like that word. This was our Sketch Club outing at the Zoo. We rode all the way up to the top in the skypod thing, because it’s easier to slowly walk and sketch all the way down to the bottom, and catch the ferry home. Unless you are not going to the bottom, and then you have to walk up again!  You can’t win really, can you. Sunday is […]

Little Boy on P&O about 1950

Waiting for the long P&O journey

September 25, 2011 by ErinHill Sketching

What good day we had.  Meetup at The Maritime Museum for Sketchclub.  Inside or out. Whenever we’ve had Sketchclub here it’s been sunny, said Alissa in her blurb. Well guess what.  Not today!  On Friday it was 33 degrees. Today a wet and cold 13. But you know what we Sketchers are like. Rain hail or shine there we are. At least 10 or more of us! Inside was ‘Scott’s Last Expedition’ exhibition which was wonderful, although that wasn’t what I […]
