제 5회 서울 도심 스케치전 안내 (Notice for an exhibition at Myeong-dong)

날씨가 많이 무덥습니다.
지난 주 명동의 유네스코 회관 옥상 정원에 위치한 배롱나무 카페를 방문하고 전시회를 보았습니다.  둘로 나뉘어진 카페 벽면을 활용하여 소품 전시회를 하기에 좋은 장소였습니다. 그곳에서 8월 1일 부터 31일까지 서울 어반 스케쳐스의 '서울 도심 스케치전'을 열려합니다.  옥상 정원도 아름답고 카페도 조용한 분위기라 그림과 어우러지면서 더욱 멋진 공간이었어요.  더구나 작품 판매의 일정 부분을 아프리카 후원금으로 기부함으로 보람도 있겠습니다.

관심있으신 분들의 많은 참여 바라며 seoulurbansketchers@gmail.com 으로 연락 주시기 바랍니다. 감사합니다.

장소 : 명동 유네스코 회관 배롱나무 카페
날짜 : 2016년 8월 1일 - 2016년 8월 31일, 
        평일 오전 9시 - 오후 8시, 토요일 오전 9시 - 오후 7시, 일요일 휴무












We are glad to announce that we will hold 5th exhibition at the Baerongnamu Cafe, UNESCO House located at Myeong-dong from Aug. 1st to 31st this year. The space is very special because it's in the rooftop garden at the center of Seoul. We can feel natural as if we're standing in the countryside garden with wooden benches here and there and somewhat big trees such as Crape Myrtle and so on. We hope many sketchers to join this exhibit and share great pleasure of donating some portion to support the UNESCO business by selling lots of works. Please send mails to seoulurbansketchers@gmail.com if you have interest in this event. Thank you!

Last Saturday, It was very cold weather to sketch outdoors. For the 50th World Wide SketchCrawl, Seoul sketchers met at Myeong-dong, which is one of the busiest places in Seoul. Myeong-dong is a Mecca of commerce and finance, shopping and culture, arts and fashion of Korea and a very popular tourist destination of Jung-gu in downtown Seoul.
In the morning, I sketched some streetscapes and mannequins in and outside of Lotte Department building. After lunch, I moved to Myeong-dong Cathedral, and sketched colorful sceneries around the quiet cathedral and the bustling streets.
.
서울 최고의 번화가~~ 명동은 번쩍거리며 춤추는 관광명소입니다.
패션과 금융, 예술과 낭만, 젊음과 상인들의 행렬은 그칠 새 없고
외국인과 뒤섞이는 인파와 온갖 빌딩속으로 덮인 열정의 거리는 추위도 잊은 채
휘황한 간판들은 장엄한 성당의 종소리와 어우러져 환상의 스케치에 빠져듭니다.

#50th World Wide SketchCrawl at Myeong-dong

I started first drawing at Lotte Cinema hall at 6th floor of Lotte department.

Cold weather of -15 degrees made us hard to expect many sketchers to join. But two brave new comers, Han Ju-hyeon and Kim Kyu-hun, came for sketching together. Much thanks to Lee Yong-hwan and Yun Young-sook from Yongin city too.
But the inside of department was warm for us to put off thick coats while sketching on bright bridge looking down both sides of urban features. We shared new comers' nice sketches which were made before. Those were inspiring. After having lunch we moved into Coffee Bean located across Myeongdong Cathedral. The place was nice for sketchers with good scenery through pane glass moving the ground floor to 2nd floor freely. After finishing we gathered at the plaza of '1898 Myeongdong Cathedral', basement of the cathedral, which was rebuilt under the previous parking lot. Sharing works done all day was always worthy for all of us. We shared experiences and tips.
Thank you so much for participating with courage and love for sketching together!

오늘 몹시 추운 날씨에 참여해주신 이용환님, 윤영숙님, 한주현, 김규헌님께 감사드립니다.
그러나 언제나 만남은 즐겁기만 합니다. 앞으로도 좋은 만남이 지속되기를 바라며,
좋은 그림들 많이 볼수 있기를 바랍니다. 감사합니다.
