What is Sketchwalk?

Imagine an adventure of several artists - all traveling with their sketchbooks along the same route... sketching /watercoloring quickly as we go. We all meet at the end of the day to share sketchbooks, stories, laughs, at a nearby cafe. I will organize each route and have maps for all.

This is the kind of adventure that gives in so many ways - not only by facilitating group art/new creative friends, but by encouraging a fresh look/appreciation of san francisco locales. If we happen to have some great art at the end of the day, that's a bonus.

Please join out Flikr group, and post any photos/scans of our past meetups you went to:

P.S. Some people have asked about what the 1.50 fee is/how is it used....
Most meetup events charge a low fee because meetup costs to start a group.
(when an organizer makes a group they have to pay before it is posted.
This fee helps reimburse me for the money I paid, as well as cutting down on no shows.

What members are saying

 It's a great chance to keep up your art practice, meet new people, see familiar faces and visit different parts of the city, all at the same time.

 It is a mellow, wonderful way to get out and do some plein air art. It was nice to be with the group so you don't feel awkward or harassed. ...
