Urban
Sketchers Manchester were invited to sketch at the 'Big Green Happening'
festival in Manchester yesterday. It was at St Clement's church, which
is in Chorlton - a leafy cosmopolitan south Manchester suburb, and the
event was about promoting sustainability and a greener way of life. Lots
of really interesting eco-businness in attendance including quirky
craft stalls, delicatessens, vegan food, craft beer, organic wines,
bicycle repairs and ethical fashion…and as the website says the event
was promoting...'campaigners, makers, doers, growers, educators and
builders'. It was a really friendly family orientated event...how nice
on a lovely spring afternoon which was perfect urban sketching weather!
Here's
my drawing from the afternoon (too much talking...much of it about
urban sketching rather than drawing in my case!) and also a photograph
of us with our finished drawings in the sunshine.
