Barcelona Usk Symposium Workshop Results

Aquí tenéis casi todos los dibujos que realicé durante los talleres del Bcn Usk Symposium.
Gracias a todos los instructores por transmitir sus conocimientos de una manera tan clara que todo parecía fácil y no podías hacer otra cosa que probarlo alegremente. Me hubiese gustado que el simposio  durase algunos días más ya que a juzgar por los resultados que han compartido el resto de participantes, todos los talleres merecían la pena, pero estoy contento con los que escogí y aquí tenéis algunos de los resultados.

Here you have most of the drawings I made during the Bcn Usk Symposium Workshops.
Thank you to all the instructors for transmitting their knowledge in such a clear way that everything seemed easy and oneself couldn't but inspiredly give it a go. I wish the Symposium had lasted a few more days as I'm sure that all the other workshops were worth taking as the many drawings shared by the participants show, but nevertheless, I'm happy with the ones I took and here you have some results

Barcelona Usk Symposium Portraits

Vaya! Casi más de un año sin actualizar el blog... Ya me vale!!!
Hemos estado bastante liados durante los últimos 6 meses organizando el Simposio de Urban Sketchers que este año se celebraba en Barcelona, todo salió bastante bien y hemos conocido y disfrutado de la compañía y dibujos de gente venida de todo el mundo. He tenido la oportunidad de retratar solo a algunas de esas maravillosas personas tan implicadas con el ¨Urban Sketching¨. Espero que os gusten!

Por cierto, algunos retratos son justo antes de empezar el simposio y los otros justo después de que se acabase... puedes notar la diferencia?!? :)

En breve subiré más dibujos realizados durante los talleres!


Oh Boy! Pretty much a year since I last updated the blog... Shame on me!!!
We've been quite busy for the last 6 months organising the Urban Sketchers Symposium that was to be held in Barcelona, everything turned out quite nicely and we've met and enjoyed the company and drawings of a lot of people from all over the globe. I had the chance to portrait just some of those wonderful people very much engaged with the Urban Sketching. Hope you like them!

By the way, some portraits just before the Symposium started and the others right after it finished... can you tell the diference?!? :)

Soon to come some of the drawings I did during the workshops!
