Sketching on Location

SPACE South Pasadena Arts Center

The attitude of a sketch is different from anything else…a way to catch a fleeting inspiration, or capture a bit of life in the moment, without the need for elaborate finishing and detail. Through sketching on location, we can experience a place in a very personal way. We will explore different locations in the South Pasadena area each week with a variety of media in sketchbook format.
