Nice to see an urban sketcher documenting life at the University of Washington. Eli Pasco has a regular feature on the campus newspaper’s website:
I have been urban sketching for almost two years now, and have grown both as a person and an artist. I have developed my style, perfected my technique, and exposed myself to events, people, and communities beyond my horizons. Urban sketching has made me an explorer in my own home, allowing me to approach every commute, interaction, and experience with open eyes. Early morning and late night commutes on the bus become impromptu people drawing sessions, lampposts become a fascinating study, and a university campus becomes a treasure trove for sketching everything from people on the go to a wide range of architectural styles.

Thank you very much for the mention! A friend and fellow urban sketcher just showed me this!
