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…
Hi,
My Name is Ludo. I’m French and I am living in the south of France near Aix-en-Provence. I’m an engineer. I’ve started to draw with my wife last summer (august) while trekking in the mountains. I also took a 5 days watercolor course in october that was interesting from the technical point of view, but what I really would like to learn is sketchning fast on location. I’m really excited to take part in that course with many students from everywhere in the world !
I am Aikya from Oakland, California. Online I often use the name Menukon, which means “rainbow” in Lenape, a native language originally from the US East Coast states of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware. I just started sketching and sketchbooks in Sketchbook Skool but, since my father was a commercial artist, drawing and painting have been an integral part of my life. For about 15 years, up until Sketchbook Skool, I stopped creating art (se peculiar) but I’m BACK now. I am retired from medical research, serve in my church and run two prison ministries. Art keeps me sane.
Nice to see you again, Aikya.
Hi,
My name is Géraldine. I live in Belgium. I regularly draw and paint since I was 13 but I had to stop for many years. I’m drawing again since 1 year only.
I don’t do it everyday and I’m not so prolific as I would like to be.
My other passions are the travels and photography. I follow Liz’s blog since a long time. i’m feeling really enthusiastic being part of this class with Liz as teacher.
Hi,
I am Pat from Southern California. I love to sketch and journal! I’m looking forward to taking this class with Liz and you all.
Where in So Cal. There are several of us on the course.
Hi Diane, Jacqueline and Heather,
I live in the Los Angeles area but sometimes visit my brother in San Clemente. Would love to meet up some weekend for a few hours of sketching!
Hi, I’m Gabi from Budapest, Hungary. I’ve four children and very little free time, which I want to spend well. I started to sketch just a few months ago, but I’ve been following Liz’s blog for long time. I hope my English will be enough, I have problem with it, but this course could help to improve not only my sketching skills, but also my English knowledge 🙂 I’m looking forward to learning from Liz and all of you.
