< \* \* \* English version below \* \* \* > DE Fürs Wochenende ist gutes Wetter angesagt, also geht es diesmal wieder nach draussen. Albisrieden gehört zu den Quartieren, in denen man noch etwas vom alten dörflichen Zürich spürt: rund um den historischen Kern treffen Fachwerkhäuser, enge Gassen, Brunnen und gewachsene Strukturen aufeinander. Gerade dieser Kontrast macht den Ort spannend fürs Urban Sketching. Treffpunkt: Am Brunnen im Dorfzentrum, direkt beim Ortsmuseum an der Ecke Albisriederstrasse / Triemlistrasse. Bitte bringt euer eigenes Zeichenmaterial und idealerweise einen kleinen Klapphocker mit. Keine Vorkenntnisse nötig. Wir skizzieren rund 2 Stunden, allein oder in kleinen Gruppen, ganz entspannt. Danach treffen wir uns wieder, zeigen unsere Sketches und machen ein Gruppenfoto. Als Leitfaden dienen die Werte der Urban Sketchers: https://urbansketchers.org/de/who-we-are/#mission/ #uskzurich ⸻ EN The forecast for the weekend looks good, so this time we are heading outdoors again. Albisrieden is one of those Zurich districts where you can still sense something of the city’s village past: around the historic centre, timber-framed houses, narrow lanes, fountains and long-established public spaces meet everyday neighbourhood life. That contrast makes it especially appealing for urban sketching. Meeting point: At the fountain in the village centre, right by the local museum (Ortsmuseum) at the corner of Albisriederstrasse / Triemlistrasse. Please bring your own drawing materials and, ideally, a small folding stool. No prior experience required. We sketch for about 2 hours, solo or in small groups, at an easy pace. Afterwards we regroup, share our sketches and take a group photo. As always, we follow the Urban Sketchers values: https://urbansketchers.org/who-we-are/#mission/ #uskzurich

Manga zeichnen wirkt auf den ersten Blick oft kompliziert und einschüchternd. Die ausdrucksstarken Augen, die besonderen Gesichtszüge und die dynamischen Figuren lassen viele glauben, dass man dafür jahrelange Erfahrung braucht. Doch genau hier setzt dieser Manga-Zeichenworkshop an: Manga zu zeichnen ist viel einfacher, als du denkst, wenn man die richtigen Grundlagen lernt und Schritt für Schritt angeleitet wird. In meinen Manga-Zeichenworkshops lernen Kinder und Jugendliche auf spielerische und verständliche Weise die wichtigsten Techniken des Manga-Zeichnens kennen. Der Kurs ist so aufgebaut, dass er auch ohne Vorkenntnisse gut verständlich ist und von Anfang an Erfolgserlebnisse vermittelt. Ziel ist es, den Teilnehmenden die Angst vor dem Zeichnen zu nehmen und ihre Kreativität zu fördern. Alle benötigten Materialien sind im Kurs inklusive, sodass nichts mitgebracht werden muss. Zeichenpapier, Stifte und weitere Materialien stehen vor Ort zur Verfügung. Ablauf: Aufwärm- und Sketch-Übungen (10–15 Minuten) Zu Beginn lockern wir die Hand mit einfachen Zeichenübungen und schnellen Skizzen. Diese helfen, Sicherheit im Strich zu entwickeln und entspannt ins Zeichnen zu starten. Grundlagen: Manga-Gesichter (ca. 30 Minuten) Du lernst Schritt für Schritt, wie typische Manga-Gesichter aufgebaut sind – von der Grundform über Proportionen bis hin zu Augen, Nase, Mund und Gesichtsausdruck. Gemeinsam eine Manga-Figur zeichnen (45–60 Minuten) Anschliessend setzen wir das Gelernte um und zeichnen gemeinsam eine komplette Manga-Figur. Dabei lernst du, wie Charaktere lebendig wirken und wie kleine Details Persönlichkeit vermitteln.
