과천 국립현대미술관에서 황규백전을 보고나서 야외데크에서 스케치했습니다.
"지나고보니 이런 순간이 행복이야."
라고 하신 유병화샘 말씀이 마음에 남습니다.
가을되면 키 큰 계수나무에 솜사탕냄새 솔솔 날텐데 그때 또 가보고싶네요.

The Gwangjin Bridge is loved by people because it's possible for citizens to walk the bridge enjoying riverside scenery sitting on benches while crossing. And there's a nice place, the Riverview 8th Avenue in the middle of the bridge, where various kinds of art programs are held such as movies, exhibits, and lover's proposal events even. I could visit there with MK Kim, Seoul Urban Sketcher for sketching and looking round the gallery. It was very special for the visitors to be able to see the river run under the tempered glass of the gallery floor. I couldn't walk on it for the fear. You can see here. We enjoyed all the time after long time no see. 

김미경샘의 안내로 광진교 8번가에 처음 가보았습니다. 한강에 다리가 워낙 많아 가보지 못한 곳이 많은데 광진교는 죽 걸어가는 도중에 벤치가 놓여있어서 스케쳐들에게는 아주 좋은 장소더군요. 특히나 중간에 위치한 전망쉼터가 일품이었어요.

모처럼 만나서 이야기도 많이하고 편의점에서 라면을 직점 끓여주는 기계도 처음 접하고 놀라고 즐거웠어요. 비오는 날 뜨거운 라면이야 거부할 수 없지요. 맛난 커피마시며 바라보는 한강의 경치는 멋진 추억이 될 것같습니다. 김미경샘께 감사드리며 종종 만나 좋은 시간 가졌으면 합니다.

보슬비 내리는 봄날 유병화샘과 스케치 데이트.
광진교에서 스케치하고
한강공원까지 우산 들고 걷고
편의점에서 즉석라면도 첨으로 먹어보고
맛있는 커피 마시며 이야기 나누며
또 스케치하고.
즐거운 하루였습니다~~

I had such a lovely day with Byung Wha Yoo, just walking on the Gwangjin Bridge, sketching, eating Ramen, chatting and drinking coffee.

Last Saturday, It was very fine and clear weather to sketch outdoors. In celebration of the 47th World Wide SketchCrawl, we usk Seoul members met at Gyeonggi English Village (경기영어마을) in Paju City (파주시) close to Seoul. As soon as I entered the village through castle shaped gate, a new world of fantastic atmosphere with beautiful buildings and diverse performances impressed me.
The street is lined on each side with the typical western style buildings where English programs are conducted, with the the restaurants and convenience stores drawing the interested visitors and tourists. All facilities have been newly built to simulate a village in an English-speaking country. Students can learn English by enjoying a cultural experience in an exotic environment. Though it is located near urban areas for easy access, it is a suburban English village in harmony with its surrounding natural environment.
We enjoyed an exciting sketch time across the fantastic village in the outskirts of Seoul.

 영어 마을은 학생과 이용자들에게 자연스럽게 영어로 말하도록 환경을 마련한 곳입니다.

 

건물들이 영국과 미국의 모습을 본떴을 뿐 아니라

 

곳곳에 외국인들이 있어서 영어를 해볼 수 있는 분위기 였습니다.

The weather was extremely fine! Though the Gyeonggi English Village locates at Paju city which takes over one hour to arrive at from Seoul, eight sketchers participated in. The village was far better than I expected in scale, quiet atmosphere, and beautiful buildings in rows. The village was established for the purpose of experiencing to speak English or else as living in English using countries by Gyeonggi province on April, 2003. There are various kinds of programs for kids, students, or businessmen, etc.

We enjoyed all the beautiful scenery and spring season sketching here and there.
Thank you all!
