Every day in August – more sketches

On August 28, 2013 by Alex Zonis With 15 Comments - drawing, painting, sketch, watercolor

The next 6 sketches for the wonderful Sketchpack Project 2013 out of Capetown, South Africa. The first 6 can be seen here – Every Day in August.

We have a Facebook group for members of this project where we post our daily sketches and chat away about sketches and everything else. It is quite amazing to say this – but I seem to have a few new friends in Capetown and Johannesburg area. Some even invited me to visit – an amazing feat considering the distance – 8494 miles  – and amount of jet fuel needed to get there from Chicago. But you never know… if there is a will – there is a way!

    I like this group and the ones you posted earlier. Sometimes it is fun to do something small…just for fun. I like the idea of the project!

      Joan, perhaps you would be interested in joining the project next year? If so, let me know and I will connect you with the Artsource, Cape Town.

          Thanks, Christian! Di Metcalf from Cape Town is the brain and organizer behind this project. We will probably do this again in 2014. We have a Facebook group of people who did 2013, so we can keep in touch. If you want, I can invite you there so you can be in the loop for news.

    Alex, you’re participation on this project has been an inspiration to us all through your sharing of knowledge, adventurous spirit and sense of humour, and of-course those marvelous little sketches! (Y)

      What a wonderful thoughtful comment, Anne! I am so lucky to have met you though various endeavors we do together. Bless the internet age where distance stopped being a barrier to friendship.
