USk Deutschlandtreffen in Berlin - Sketchwalk 2 - Zoo und Kaiser-Wilhelm-Gedächtniskirche

 

Turned out that this would be one of my favourite sketching moments. This time I had enough time and even had a light breakfast while I sketched this one at BIKINI.

My second sketch of this sketchwalk was a bit further down the road at the zoo entrance

 

Quite happy about the elephant! Here comes the onlocation photo:

Here come my two sketchwalk watercolours:

Then there was the trowdown:


And the group photo:



 Thank you Peter for the awesome sketchwalk.

USk Deutschlandtreffen in Berlin - Arrival and Sketchwalk 1 - "DDR Moderne"

 

We came late in the evening to Berlin and luckily there was a nice little restaurant closeby where I could eat "Buletten mit Bratkartoffeln". Typical dish.

My sketchwalk next day was fun and completely out of my comfort zone as its topic was "GDR Modern"...here my four 20 min. sketches...always had to hurry...

 

...no time for windows or the like...;)



This one was close to Café Moskau. No time for more layers in watercolour...

And as we came closer to Alexanderplatz, there were many red cranes to be seen...

 

Then we were real close to the train station of Alexanderplatz and in my sketch below you can see part of the tower of Alex.

 

 Throwdown: 


 


Later I was happy to sketch more stuff to my liking, like for example the statue of St. Georg at Nicolaiviertel.

Irgendwo hinterm Zoo





















This watercolour is from the very green heart of Berlin.
