Last Saturday, the weather was fine to sketch. Seoul urban sketchers met at the Anglican Church of Korea and sketched various scenes around Jeong-dong street near Deoksugung Palace. I sketched lovely buildings in historic downtown Seoul reminiscing about the good old days.

덕수궁 주변의 성공회와 정동 일대는 도심의 보석과도 같은 곳입니다.

역사와 애환과 낭만의 추억이 깃든 우리 시대의 자화상을 보면서~~

도시의 물결과 유유한 옛 문화가 함께 숨쉬는 스케치의 매력에 빠져듭니다.

some sketches in and outside the the Anglican Church of Korea, Seoul

These days, I used to visit and sketch some historic and memorable buildings near downtown.Many cultural assets, including old palaces, temples and churches are placed around us in Seoul. Especially, the Anglican Church of Korea(대한성공회 서울교구) is one of the most desirable spots to sketch artistically for me. I've sketched this beautiful church for years, but I'm never tired of it.

성공회는 도심속의 몇 안되는 보물같은 스케치 마당입니다.
빛과 질감, 비례와 균형, 스케일과 주변 하모니~~
양식과 전통이 어우러지며 서울의 역사가 배어 있는
그려도 그려도 새롭게 다가오는 스케치 수련장입니다.
