Ahmedabad, INDIA [Results]

Post by Dhanaraju »

Hi
It was a rainy day. This was our second sketchcrawl gathering in Ahmedabad. We had decided to meet at the same place Ahmadabad Eye Balloon Safari, where we did last time. So that we can have shelter at the restaurant in case of heavy rain. We assembled around 4.30 pm and started doing sketches around Ahmadabad Eye Balloon Safari, Kankaria lake, Ahmedabad. There were 15 friends turned out. Vrindavan Solanki, Arpit Biloria, Suresh Immanuel, R. Y. Bhaviskar, S. Dhanaraju, Ashish Bhavsar, Mukund Patel, Mukesh Gajjar, Akki Reddy, Saheb Ram Tudu, Shaam Pahapalkar, Asha Raval, Abhijit Paul, Arjun, Rohit. There were 7 new crawlers. Few old friends were missed out as it was raining at many places.
It was a very pleasant evening. We all were enjoyed the weather and our sketches. In between we had a hot tea and shared our experiences with each other. Again we stretched some time before the rain forced us to rush inside the restaurant. Around 8 pm we had a nice dinner together thanks to our great friend Snehal Avashia from Ahmadabad Eye Balloon Safari. While dining all were exchanged their thoughts. It was a wonderful evening with loads of fun.

Ahmedabad Sketchers...

Greetings from Vancouver, Canada.. :wave:

What a great sketch group, and such a fantastic turn-out despite the rain. Wow.. 15 sketchers.. that must have been fun. It seems that India in general had a good set of sketch teams.
Thanks for sharing your spectacular photo's and sketches.
Some really good sketches of people, great black and white line sketches, sketches with the trees were very interesting, and I loved the birds in the trees. :thumbup:
Absolutely a super scene that was painted on board plein air. :thumbup:
A really cool and different pencil sketch. :thumbup:
Lovely coloured sketches... wow those green/blue scenes really pop, with wet-in-wet technique. Very vivid and colourful. :thumbup:

Hey that ball-point pen says "TD Bank" "America's most convenient bank" - TD stands for Toronto Dominion Bank and its Canadian..eh! :D :P
But great work by the person doing the tree sketch with it.
I like the sketches of the place with the blue and white striped roof (I assume it is the train station around the lake) drawn by the person in the red shirt and white pattern. (excuse me I haven't tried to match up the names to the sketches).
Someone was drawing one of your other sketchers. Very good sketch, I like this. :thumbup:

A very talented group.
Excuse me if I missed anybody.

Cheers
