WOW! Last Saturday Urban Sketchers met graffiti artists at the Long Island City Art Studio Open House. In short, there was art, sketching, urbanites and happy people all around.
Nice work, Richard. I just spent a weekend with Frank Ching and Gail Wong in Seattle, and since I live in an area where it is hard to find a building with more than two floors, this truly "urban" look is fascinating. Thanks for sharing.
Dang it, Richard! I wish I could have been with you guys for this sketch event, my son is a "spray can artist" as he likes to call it. He worked in L.A. for awhile, re-painting the alleyway behind his apartment about a million times; now he's in Austin TX improving their landscape. I love to watch Graffiti artists work, but I've never thought of sketching them as they do... great concept for a sketch crawl!
