So I’ll go first…
I’m Liz (I think you all know that!)
I live in Sydney, Australia. I’m an architect by profession and worked 20 years on a range of residential and commercial developments, specialising in media projects. I’ve always drawn as part of my work but in 2007 discovered watercolour and started my first daily sketchbook. I haven’t stopped sketching since!
I’m very interested in architectural history and theory and drinking tea out of fancy china teacups… but I’m guessing you all know that too!
You can find me on: Facebook, Flickr, Google+, Instagram and Twitter using the buttons under ‘Connect on Social Media’ in the footer of this website.
Now it’s your turn…
Checked on notify me – sorry guys I’ll read your comments here so opting out of follow up comments… 🙂
I’m Tania, I live in Brisbane, Australia. I attend weekly art class, working mainly in acrylics. I also did Sketchbook Skool 1 which I really enjoyed, I am now so looking forward to learning from Liz. Sketching is just such a wonderful form of self expression to me, I try to always have a sketchbook in my handbag when I go out to capture the day or a moment.
Hi, I’m Heather and I live in Northern California, surrounded by redwood trees, near Eureka. I have just started drawing this year. I’ve been married for 17 years and have four beautiful children. In addition to drawing, I love knitting, sewing, gardening, and reading books. I can’t wait to start this class. I love the idea of recording my daily life with sketching. You can find me on flickr under the name: h.hodge97 and on instagram under the name: heatherh2020
Hi! I’m Kathie from Chicago ~ I’ve been an artist all my life thanks to my mom and dad and was lucky enough to be surrounded by art supplies most of my life. I think I still have them all … and more! Was an illustrator/designer, then mom, then a painter of pastel portraits and plein air oil landscapes. I’ve been teaching pastels at the historically wonderful Old Town Art Center and recently became reacquainted with watercolor when the asked to teach a class. I feel as if I’ve come home ~ though I still love pastels and oils. Spent a bit of time last winter in Manly and Sydney while my son worked and surf boated there for a year. LOVE Australia and wish I was with you in person for your classes there, Liz! So looking forward to the next 12 weeks of study!
Hi! I’m Holly. I live in Jakarta Indonesia. My passion is fashion and art. I have done some fashion illustrations, and posted them on instagram @avecholly. I would like to improve my sketch, mostly I work in photoshop. Hoping I can learn watercolor techniques, drawing buildings and able to sketch faster.
