San Francisco Sketchcrawl!

Well, you've been seeing a lot of Sketchcrawlers on USK! My day was sponsored by Starbucks...we occupied a sidewalk table early in the day, and pretty much stayed put all afternoon :)

Beautiful and masterful indeed! Your sketches make a great city look even more gorgeous. I love the texture that is showing on the sketch on the bottom - what paper are you using?

Matthew Brehm said...

faaaaantastic! ... I agree with the comment comparing these to Sargent - something about the earthy pallette and the combination of crunchy detail and bubbly washes. Really - top notch!

This is some of the most gorgeous rendition of this subject matter I have seen. I used to live there.
