Confessing our sketching sins - Results of the sketchcrawl at the Notre Dame Cathedral in Luxembourg city

 On a dark, rainy and windy November afternoon the Urban Sketchers Luxembourg sought refuge in the Notre Dame Cathedral in Luxembourg City. 

We worked in meditation, concentration and silence… 

And here a short Youtube film about the meeting. 

We were happy to welcome some newcomers and young sketchers!

Here you can see the individual results:

Quite a big turnout -  and just enough light in the narthex to take a group photo.

Drink & draw …

…. in the cosy bar “Le Trianon” at the iconic Grand Hotel Cravat Luxembourg.

After a creative and spiritual afternoon we had a chat and a drink in a more mundane environment:

See you at our next meeting in December!

A sunny afternoon in the Community garden in Bonnevoie, Luxembourg

Urban Sketchers Luxembourg were invited by the members of the Bonnevoie Community Garden for a sketching afternoon in the harvest month August.  The community garden is the first ever created in Luxembourg and will soon celebrate its 10th anniversary. What a great reason to draw and paint there while the gardeners were taking care of the plants and the soil! Below you can see some of the 'harvest' from the urban sketchers. Enjoy!

Thanks to the members of the Community Garden for inviting us!

Joint meeting USk Metz - USk Luxembourg at Mondorf on the francolux border

Oooh, the weather gods were furious and unchained that weekend. 

But they seem to have a soft spot for us sketchers, because on our joint meeting Urban Sketchers Metz - Urban Sketchers Luxembourg we had only one tiny raindrop and perfect sketching weather with a mix of cloud and sun. 

We met at Mondorf-les-Bains, on the francoluxembourg border.

Here a short  film to have a whiff of this joint meeting at the Mondorf parc
