Málaga, Spain-RESULTS

Hi everybody!

Today was my first sketchcrawl experience. Nobody else attended the call, so I went on my own.
It was a beautiful warm day, a bid windy, though.
I started with this row of buildings sketched from the other side of the Guadalmedina river.

Image

I continued my solo sketchcrawl wondering what to draw when this came into sight, I guess it is some kind of pumping station; I liked it and made this sketch.

Image

I finished my solo sketchcrawl at this café. The terrace was packed and I preferred to sketch the inside which was nearly empty.

Image

I'm looking forward to the 25th sketchcrawl, I hope next time there will be more sketchers!
Cheers!

Thank you for sharing - That is a lot of detail, how long did it take you to do each piece?

Gustavo, thank you for your comment!
The first one (the façades) took about an hour, as well as the café one; the other one perhaps a bit less, say 45 min.

-- paradeisos, next to people enacting in private scenes I love to stumble upon technical devices as you did! And you did a splendid job on the pumping station!

Gracias for sharing,
T.

Great pics with amazing use of perspective as usual. I especially like the cafe interior with the big ceiling fans.

Yes, I agree, these are really excellent, and actually I can feel your loneliness in these drawings. You have captured a lot with these lines of your pen. I do hope that you find some more sketchers for the next one! I found these people in my group through twitter and blogger. Keep adding people who are artists and posting your work, the like minded spirits will be attracted to you. Besitos! xox
