Sketching-on-the-Spot with Bob Altwein - Saturday, Sept 21 (full day)Bob Altwein - portrait

Sketching-on-the spot is like a portal and opportunity, offering a range of mark making from gestural to detailed representation. Our sketch journey makes us curious, evokes solitude and encourages mindfulness. Sketching can also provoke engagement with other artists or strangers. Our sketch practice can get us closer to our materials. Sketching-on-the spot can include still life, travel sketches, social reportage (like during the COVID period), portraits, self portraits, botanical or garden themes, landscapes/seascape, urban scenes, cafes, malls, street life, food, pets, household objects and don’t hesitate to encroach into abstraction too.
