More Bolhem goodness for you
Amazing work … he gets so much character out of people around him. The first one Bolhem did at SketchCrawl last month, he was telling me how he thought interesting how just making the shape of her feet dark and prominent sells almost automatically her pose and attitude. The other three are from his Paris’ metro sketchbooks, crazy good....

Sketching on a rainy day – by Emma

I ended up somehow at the Sacramento Zoo, too – but it started pouring so that turned out to be a very...
Sketchcrawl Tahoe – by Gerald
Here are a few sketches from my recent WWSC 8 adventure in South Lake Tahoe, NV. I had such a great time hanging out with friends, snowboarding on the “Easy Rider” slopes up in Sierra. With the constant drizzle of snow and the 20 degree weather, I found it quite difficult to relax while sketching…you tend to draw a little bit faster. Gerald:...

Another contributor: Claudio Acciari
Well, let me introduce you to one of the upcoming amazing contributors to the new SketchCrawl blog : Claudio Acciari. Italian compatriote, uber talented painter, Ufo Robot Grandizer maniac, Claudio does computer generated pieces (often with Oekaki boards) that push the limits of the medium … he can paint with pixels … really wonderful pieces with daring, unusual and inspiring colors and palettes. I am really happy he agreed to help us make this place great...
