Saturday Sketchwalk at Intramuros And Life Drawing Session

     One of the admins of USk Philippines was invited to sketch with CSB  Architecture students yesterday and she's invited other members to tag along. I still haven't gotten enough sleep from the night before and I have an scheduled life drawing session with another fellow USk member in the afternoon. Still, I decided to attend both. :D
    We were supposed to make eight 10minute sketches around Intramuros but the weather is really bad. So, we were only able to make three.

Sketching the sketchers

The second stop.

Random passersby. It was already raining at this point so everyone stayed under the bridge until it stopped.

Coffee break before going to the life drawing session: an attempt at watercolor wash with out pencil or pen sketch.

more attempts

Trying to capture the cat that won't stay still.

Other people on the sidewalk

Then off to the life drawing session!

While waiting for the life drawing session to start

This is my first attempt. Unfortunately, it was almost finished when I realized that I was viewing my drawing at the wrong angle. Looks correct at the low angle  but distorted when viewed upfront like those 3d illusions somewhere in the net.

The second attempt. The model has changed her pose quite differently. I'm beginning to feel exhausted.

the second pose.

just for fun I tried a 2min sketch with a waterbrush

and with my last ounce of strength: sketching the sketchers.

Now if only I have some more energy to go back home. Of course it wont be a challenge without the heavy traffic and the rain. :D
