Crealde Parking

It has been a while since I taught a Crealde Urban Sketching class.

Our class was usually held outside and we would sketch the Crealde campus. Each class was built around a single premise and we built our sketches up from line to line and wash then fully developed sketches.

I never forced my style of sketching on my students, preferring instead to encourage what is unique in each of their sketches. When we shared our sketches at the end of each class the variety was always something to celebrate. I would always do one sketch myself but I would walk it around and share it with each student at each phase to show progress. I would then also do thumbnail sketched with suggestions to share what I would focus on with each of their unique views.

I will be moving further north in January, so I am not sure if it will be worth it to drive back to Winter Park on Sunday’s to conduct classes.
