The 4th International Urban Sketching Symposium

The 4th International Urban Sketching Symposium

The 4th International Urban Sketching Symposium was held last week in Barcelona, Spain.  It was attended by about 200 “registered” participants from 30 different countries; another 100 or so showed up from across the globe just to meet each other, draw together, and celebrate the urban sketching phenomenon.  My fellow ASLA member Richard Alomar and I were among the workshop instructors.  Participants included landscape architects, architects, artists, illustrators, film animators, computer game designers, as well as accountants, biologists, and entrepreneurs – all brought together by a love of on-location sketching.  More landscape architects attend each year; building skills and learning how location sketching – capturing “what is” – can be a springboard for envisioning “what can be.”  I’ve posted an album with more sketches from the Symposium in my Land8 Folio that you can view, here
