Urban skething in Thorn, The Netherlands






Kunstroute 2012 in Tremelo

The last weekend of April and the frist weekend of May, we organised a 'kunstroute' in Tremelo (an art-walk?) We didn't have the best of weather but luckely it didn't rain. Lot's of people visited us and they were very pleased with what they saw. We had a corner with sketchbooks of two art-academies and we had our Urban Sketchers-Belgium corner.

The second saturday it was very cold, so I had the time to sketch...

Our urban sketchers corner...


Gérard Michel and Fabien Denoel came over from Liège.

Outside in the garden you could see the wooden art work of Koen Wisse and we had a café with home made pancakes and pastry.

Thanks to all USK-members that participated: Miriam, Gérard, Fabien, Cato, Geert, Rita, Pascal, Jan...

A day out with friends in Leuven (Louvain), the weather was cold (we met at the Ladeuze square which resulted in a quick sketch of the university library),   we visited the museum M (made a quick sketch of a wooden statue), had a drink and went eating at Le Toeareg. The green beetle stuck on a pile, is an artwork of the Belgian artist Jan Fabre...

Urban sketching: Antwerp



We had a marvelous sketching weekend. Yesterday we went sketching in Antwerp. We had sun and were entertained by several street musicians... life can be beautiful!!!!

Urban sketching: The Watermill of Rotselaar Belgium



    



This is an old watermill converted to home for several families. They make their own electricity, bake bread, sell organic vegetables... We thank the families that we could sit in their garden and sketch!
