Ackland Museum Show, the Art of Urban Sketching

This is another of the sketches I did for the Ackland Museum show in Chapel Hill, North Carolina--and I WISH I'd scanned it after I added the lettering!  I forgot...

This is one of the many sketches I've done at Architectural Salvage, in Kansas City--what a treasure trove!

The show is The Art of Urban Sketching, and a bunch of us correspondents for our parent blog, Urban Sketchers, donated work to benefit the organization and the museum.  Sales will help fund symposia, workshops, and other projects that encourage the art of urban sketching!  Hope you can make it there--the show opens August 10 and promises to be an exciting peek into urban sketches across the globe.

Hoping for the Future

This beautiful pair of buildings is really all one...and for sale.  It's been several different things, including a funeral home, and I hope it gets re-purposed into something wonderful!  A friend and her husband owned it and had hoped to make it a restaurant and event center, but life intervened...

So this is one of the sketches I did for the Art of Urban Sketchers show at the Ackland Museum in North Carolina, at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.  The show benefits both Urban Sketchers and the museum, with donated works by USk correspondents.  I hope you can get there!  (There will be more on this soon...)
