Sketchbook: King's Cross

Let's sketch around King's Cross!

Welcome to the first inaugural meeting of Sketchbook London! Let's meet at King's Cross Station by the Birdcage in Battle Bridge Place, it's the little square out the back as you walk towards Coal Drops Yard.

I love this little spot because there is such a wealth of characters going in and out of the station constantly and such great people watching. Completely free of charge, please bring your own sketchbooks and pens/pencils.

Feel free to drop in and stay for as long or as little as you like. I'll try and stay in that area to pick up any latecomers so look for the tall ginger fella sketching away, but feel free to roam as far and wide as you like and sketch anything you damn well please!

The plan will be to meet at 1pm, sketch for a couple of hours and meet back and chat at 3pm. There are plenty of places around to grab coffee or a bite to eat, hopefully the weather is good so we'll be able to sit outside but if not we could consider ducking into a cafe.

About Sketchbook London

Every week we will choose a location around the magnificent city of London and draw people, buildings, pigeons, bins, anything you want....

No payment, no pressure, no need to sign up, just show up and draw for a couple of hours. All levels, abilities and professions welcome, bring a friend!

Zero pressure to interact, network, impress in any way, this is just a way to get out and about and appreciate the joy of urban sketching and all the weird and wonderful creatures that inhabit this thriving metropolis.

I am a storyboard artist working in animation and I am happy to discuss sketching techniques or give feedback on any work but this is by no means an exclusive event for artists, all are welcome :)
