Last Saturday the NYC Urban Sketchers met at Industry City, Building 2 in Brooklyn. This is a revitalized area of a number of industrial buildings that have been converted into retail spaces, restaurants, galleries, etc. This truck apparently is used in nicer weather as a food/drink truck.
This is the view looking down part of the length of the building I sketched in. There was an Italian, a Korean, a Mexican, an avocado themed, and assorted other eateries just in this building. I got a shrimp burrito from the Mexican place and it was delicious.
In the other direction was the Burger Joint, which was very popular. I started the sketch on sight with the lines and some color, but ran out of time before show-and-tell to finish it. The additional color was added at home.
Our sketch group has become very large. The last two locations we had 40+ sketchers join us. Here is most of the group that was left at the end of the day.
Wow, what a great turnout! And vibrant location for the meetup!
ReplyDeleteSorry I missed this one. You captured a vibrant mix of subjects and look at those happy sketchers!
ReplyDeleteWe missed you, Mel. It was nice to do a group photo for a change.
DeleteAmazing sketches and wonderful group. I love that you do those things.
ReplyDeleteI've been lazy and missed a lot of the events. It helped that I had a friend to travel with this time.
