Urban sketching: Brussel Bad - Bruxelles les bains

Last week we went sketching in Brussels...on the beach of Brussels!! A real urban beach is installed along the Canal of Brussels. People come to have a drink, eat something, dance, enjoy music... the ideal place to sketch people!!
 
for the ones that wonder what's going on in that sketch... it's a couple, the girl is lying in his arms, her hand rest ons his stomach... I wanted to sketch him, but a flamenco dance started and they jumped up!... and me too...

The yellow house in the middle will be destroyed soon... a pitty, it's the only one with a soul...

Charleroi

Veerle Vercruysse organised a sketchday in Charleroi, that is a big industry town. But almost all big factories are closed down. There's a lot of unemployment and visable poverty. We met with Nicolas Buissart who brought us to a beautiful sketh location. 



Nicolas  organises safaris in his town and he can show you his home like you have never seen it before!! A real recommendation!
