42nd international Sketchcrawl

On Saturday I went to Mudam for the 42nd international Sketchcrawl.

Leen Van Bogaert, a fellow Urban sketcher I hadn't met yet, organised the meeting place and contacted several people.

I on my side contacted some friends. I was happily surprised when two of them showed up.

All in all we were 8 people, which I think is a very good number for a first meeting.

We all met at the entrance of Mudam and, after a few introductions, split up to do some sketching.

I only made two sketches at that point. Here is one of them.

People were coming and going, checking out an art installation.

After about one hour, we all gathered at the cafe area, where we had a nice chat and got to know each other.

I learned to my astonishment that there is a Luxembourg Sketchcrawl group and blog. Another welcome surprise!

Looking forward to more sketchcrawls with these lovely people
We were quite the international bunch: Beata, Kuba and Izabella are from Poland, Leen is from Belgium, Ana is Portuguese, Didier is French, Tessy and I are from Luxembourg.

Izabella and Kuba didn't actually sketch anything, but it was very nice meeting them
We exchanged email addresses before parting. Hopefully we'll stay in touch.

In the evening I went to see West Side Story at the Théâtre Municipal de Luxembourg. It was the perfect way to end a beautiful day.

I even got to do one last sketch.

As with all other sketches, colour was added later

  1. Looks like you had a great sketchy day with lovely results. I especially like the museum one with that great roof.
