sketchcrawl #16: san francisco (page 2)

sketchcrawl, on the sidewalk in north beach

...the sketchcrawl continues... I left the Ferry building and headed towards North Beach, by way of Sydney G Walton Square, plus a pretty nice sandwich. I went back to colour, and drawing trees with shadows in a slightly comicbook style... I continued onwards (and, dare i say it, upwards), up pacific, skirting the financial district, and found a spot to stand and draw the view down past the transamerica pyramid.

Shortly after 3pm I walked about North Beach, the colourful Italian part of San Francisco, finding lots of colourful things to draw but nowhere to sit and draw them. And the late afternoon sunlight was so nice! (and it was late afternoon, as the clock has gone back) I walked up green, and found an interesting looking music store, selling instruments and equipment and...actually I didn't go in, I juts sat outside and drew, which was fun. I wasn't in the mood to mooch. I sat on my bum though, getting a little dusty.

Ahortly before the endpoint of the 'crawl, I sketched the receding sky behind a typical San Francisco telegraph pole. And then met up with what remained of the sketchcrawl mob at the Rogue pub on Washington Square. An enjoyable, if tiring, day. When's the next one..?

All your sketchcrawl stuff has been great, Pete! Except it makes me feel dead lazy.

Thanks! It's my biggest physical exercise, I think.
