Sketches with a group ..pune urban sketchers.

In pune,india, we have started a group of enthusiastic urban sketchers.They are a mix of artists,laypeople, and many architects and designers..These sketches are done with the group today.I have started sketching more and more people along with my comfort zone of drawing buildings.I believe that observation of fellow sketchers helps a lot..so thank you all sketchers..The venue is Rukhmini pandurang mandir, karve nagar pune, india.

Summer sketching..

Its summer time in Pune, india, very hot to actually sit outdoors and paint.I prefer to do quick sketches instead.These are sketches done in 5 minutes each,just an impression of the place i visited.I have used my usual technique of black pen sketching on pre painted pages of the sketchbook,to avoid spending time while doing outdoor sketchpainting.Sharing some here
