Last Saturday, the 57th World Wide SketchCrawl clashed with USK Global 24hr Sketchwalk, celebrating 10 years of Urban SKetchers. The weather was fine to sketch the hustle and bustle of Seoul. We urban sketchers promised to have free sketch time for themselves around Myeong-dong and the surroundings. All the sketchers dispersed and drew here and there from morning to the afternoon. Then we met at 4:30 pm at the main hall on the 1st basement floor of Myeong-dong Cathedral, and appreciated many of our works, sharing pleasure with one another. 
I've sketched a lot of the scenes around Myeong-dong and the surroundings long before, so I could easily sketch the scenes of the famous places which are familiar to me. I started sketching the Bank of Korea Money Museum, Namdaemun Market and Myeong-dong street, looking down from the 7th floor of Lotte Young Plaza department. After lunch, I sketched the colorful buildings in the heart of Myeong-dong street viewed from the Baerongnamu Cafe on the 12th floor rooftop garden of UNESCO House building. Then I moved to Myeong-dong Cathedral and sketched evening scenes of the cathedral building. We had a good sketching celebrations at Myeong-dong Cathedral!

명동에서 남대문을 잇는 서울 100년사의 발자취를 따라 걷는
스케치로의 여행은 차곡차곡 새롭게 쌓아가는 시간의 비망록입니다.
발딛을 틈 없이 그리다 보면~ 한도 끝도 없이 나오는 새로운 그릴거리들.....
쏟아져 오는 인파들과 요란법석한 빌딩 사이사이로 비치는 햇살처럼
틈틈이 따사로움과 고요함이 깃든 공간들은 명동만이 갖고 있는 낙원입니다~~
