Travels

I am planning to write a book on sketching. It will be illustrated with my sketches from all over the world, in a number of styles and different media. I'll be heading off for four weeks this Friday and exploring Hong Kong, Paris, London, Cambridge and some of the north of England. I'll add some of my sketches along the way here and on my Facebook page Jane Blundell Artist.

In July I am looking forward to attending and presenting at the 6th International Urban Sketchers Symposium in Singapore. I'll be there for nine days and am planning to run some workshops prior, and some demonstrations during the Symposium. Here is the link to the site. Register early if you want to get involved.

If you are not familiar with the Urban Sketchers, it is a world-wide organisation with chapters in many countries and many cities. The motto is 'see the world one drawing at a time'. Drawings are done on location in urban settings and shared on various Facebook pages and blog sites. Getting involved is a great way to meet fellow sketchers while travelling :-)

    1. Arlene my Blog is searchable - put in Travel Kit to the search option and you'll see my tiny one. Or go here - http://janeblundellart.blogspot.com.au/2014/04/plein-air-painting-materials-work-in.html to see a drawing of the whole kit I'll be travelling with. I've switched a couple of felt-tip pens for fountain pens but this is my more comprehensive kit.
