I have a few new prints for sale in my Etsy store. There are six new ones. These plus a painting of Sandy Koufax who was a pitcher for the Dodgers. Many of my famed urban sketches can be purchased there at a very reasonable price.

If you'd like to start your own USk blog and connect urban sketchers in your city, country or region, here's how we can help:
1. Get a group of a minimum of three sketchers together interested in launching the blog.
2. Send your names and e-mail addresses to urbansketchers at gmail dot com with a brief paragraph stating your interest in launching the blog and how you plan to keep it fresh and engage your community of sketchers.
3. We'll create a blog for you and give you full administration privileges. You'll be able to invite people to participate, personalize it with your own flag, add links and so on. We'll just expect you to swear by the USk manifesto as much as we do. That's all.
Inspired already? Take a look at some folks who've been there done that:

Sad that Urban Sketchers is being used as an advertisement site. There's enough advertising bombarding us as it is. I wouldn't mind if it was just saying that this print can be purchased, but then hawking portraits of Sandy Koufax, etc., in the comment. Geez. Not classy at all.
Well, I for one am glad so many Urban Sketchers like Tommy have contributed so much here *for free* so anyone can enjoy their work, and I wouldn't begrudge any of them a little plug every now and then. And the other ads on the site are what keep the site going, so we won't even go there.
Another great sketch, Kane. Your work is inspiring as always.
It's one thing to plug. But this is much more blatant. What's Koufax got to do with Urban Sketchers? I agree it's great people post their art, but of all the people posting, Tommy seems to be the most commercial in his interests. Let's just enjoy the art. The plugs ruin the experience.
