Urban Sketching Sketchbook tour- Paris

   During my trip to Paris I had the opportunity to sketch with the Urban Sketchers Paris group. I feel like I learned a lot from them both sketching wise as well as organizationally. They are a very large chapter and since we are a small chapter it was fun to see how they operate. I am putting together a post of the sketch crawl they hosted. It will be on the blog soon, but in the meantime I thought I would like to share the sketches I did on this trip.


These are fairly quick sketches done while sitting at cafes or around Paris and I unintentionally forgot to add any major landmarks. Maybe I will go back and do a few sketches from my massive photo collection to finish out the sketchbook.

 One of the passages on our crawl, behind the Theatre des Varietes:

The globe lamp with hanging geranium outside our lunch spot:

The Tea salon Damman Frere- so convieniently located at the scene of the crawl:

A small, one room, vegatarian restaurant near the Marches Les Puces:

And finally, a late night cup of tea on the flight home:

 It was a fun trip and although I didn't get that many sketches done I had a relaxed wander around Paris over the long weekend.
