SATURDAY: Sketch the Motion

January 16, 2016

 At the 
Museum of the Moving Image

In a city filled with museums there is nothing like this one.  It is a one of a kind.! 



The Museum of the Moving Image is the country's only museum dedicated to the art, history, technique, and technology of the moving image in all its forms.


If you're a movie buff or a gamer, if you love TV, there is certainly going to be something for you that will inspire a brilliant sketch.  Check out Linda Blair's exorcist mask,  Chewbacca's hairy face.  The museum includes one of the most significant collections of video games and gaming hardware in the world.

  2. New to NYC, almost (but not quite) as new to urban sketching, wish I could make it to this. Hopefully next time... and hopefully next time is soon!
