Sketchtour Schwäbisch Hall, Day 3 - Sketchwalk 2

 

 

My day started early again on this day 3 of Sketchtour Schwäbisch Hall. 

Lovely that before our Sketchwalk 2 began we again had a great breakfast with good Sketchfriends at Café am Markt. The market at market square was all around us and some of our early birds sketched the market and surroundings already.

The official Sketchwalk 2 began at Henkersbrücke, where I drew the upper sketch.

 

We had planned three scenic stops for the crowd of sketchers and everybody was in sketchfever.

 

There was a Sax Quartett playing on the bridge for 15 minutes...I had missed the beginning as I was talking to some sketchers at Johanniterkirche and then hurried back. Ten minutes left, before they stopped and moved on. It was speedsketching. After our drawing marathon, Isaac and I made the musicians sign our sketches.

Then we moved on the street towards Café Ableitner where some of us had lunch and I walked back to Ilge to bring back the rest of the herd towards point 3 which was Zollhüttengasse with some lovely old houses.

Thanks to our photographers, Robert Stolba, Piotr Dutkiewicz and Standa Volek who took really very good photos of us!

We were all crowded together and had fun.

After the Sketchwalk we all met at Kunsthalle Würth for a throwdown of our artworks of the day (Videos and Photos on Insta @urbansketchershohenlohe). 

As always, everyone showed just one sketch, because we would not want to tear our sketchbook papers off.

 

Then came another highlight of the day which was the fantastic watercolour demo by Christof Ludwin with Roman Szmal Watercolours. Roman himself came to our Sketchtour which was a great honour.
