Urban sketches(24.June) in Seoul
I am posting the last sketch meeting. I have some errors to upload my pictures.
Anyway, I can upload the pictures.
Last month, I attended sketch meeting in Seoul. From early morning, we assembled in front of Daehan-mun, which has been the main gateway of Deoksoo palace.
Other members had been drawing beautiful road view.
When I arrived at the old Baejae school which had been founded at 1886, I also wanted to take the picuture. But, I didn't complete the drawing because of sudden shower.
During moving other place, I drawed pen sketch one-day road market.
Over the top of a building, I drawed the Deoksoo palace. The palace was really beautiful. It was difficult to take the wide view in my picture. Also, in short time.
I had good expectations for next sketch meeting. I love urban sketch Seoul.
Rainy season...saturday Sketchers in Jongno Sam chung dong
I went to the Sam chung dong with my friends to prepare for the exhibition. Because of the forecast of rain,the streets were unexpectedly uncrowded. Sometimes group tourists were showed up. And the umbrella of there's made the color of sketch rich . In the morning ,
didn't rain, we sketched under the outdoor umbrella of the unknown church, but after lunch, pouring cats and dogs, we went to second
floor of the cafe to take shelter from the rain. The cafe was so cool and not crowded. The sound of rain falling outside, the music inside th cafe and the communion of the friends sharing the same interst, it was mixed up ,looked like sound of orchestra. Maybe it was the benefits of rainy season.We have had an intering and exhausting but fruitful day.
전시작품을 위해 친구들과 삼청동 투어에 나섰다. 비예보 때문인지 예상외로 거리는
한산했고 형형색색의 우산을 쓴 단체관광객들이 스케치의 색감을 더 해 주었다
오전에는 비가 내리지 않아 어느교회의 파라솔아래서 삼청동 가게를 그리고 느긋한 점심식사후 2층 카페에서 쏟아지는 비를 감상(?)하였다. 오늘따라 귀에 착착 감기는 음악,창을 두드리는 시원헌 소나기, 같은곳을 지향하는 친구들과의 교감이 때로는 강한 금관악기처럼 때로는 섬세한 현악기의 리듬으로...오케스트라연주를 듣는듯한 느낌 ..
.명절특수, 휴가특수..오늘은 장마특수를 톡톡히 누린 날이다.

It rained off and on yesterday. We Seoul urban sketchers met on Sagan-dong(사간동) near Gyeongbokgung Palace and sketched around Bukchon Hanok Village(북촌 한옥마을), where lots of traditional houses and new buildings coexist side by side harmoniously and has become a major tourist attraction. Despite the bad weather, the rainy sceneries of the beautiful village seemed like an atmosphere of "Watercolors in Rain". I couldn't but sketch inside building or take shelter from the rain under the eaves while painting watercolors. It was a very exciting sketch time practicing finish the sketches within a short period of time on rainy days.

경복궁과 주변의 북촌마을은 잘 정돈된 전통한옥과 고궁, 문화시설들과 카페거리...
종로 스케치에서 빼놓을 수 없는 다양하고 무궁무진한 소재를 지닌 명소입니다.
온종일 장마비로 인한 애로가 많았지만, "비오는 날의 수채화"를 그리면서 색다른 분위기를 느끼고 또한 악천우에 대처하며 그리는 실전 경험도 큰 소득이라 생각합니다.
Seoul Urban Sketches in Jongno
It was rainy, but it's ok.
I had a little trouble to take a seat ecause of the wether.
Cafe and the Gate was the answer.

비오는 삼청동
The rain in Samcheong-dong was romantic.I couldn't attend the meeting because I was late, but I had a good day.I even scratched the rain with scratches on the paper.It makes various kinds of thoughts and expressions.

It kept being fine and rainy repeatedly. Eight sketchers including one new comer(Yoon Jae Kyung) gathered at the National Palace Museum of Korea and the other three sketchers(JS Han, KW Baik, YK Jeong) kept sketching at Samcheong-dong.
Samcheong-dong seems to keep changing day by day. So it gives lots of fascinating spots for us. Sketching Jongno we may be the biggest earning party through often meetings.
Much thanks for all the participants who joined in spite of bad weather condition!
비가 안 와도 후덥지근함으로 길을 걷기에도 힘든 날씨에 요소 요소에서 그림과 씨름하신 스케쳐 여러분들께 감사합니다. 이번 전시회를 핑계 삼아 종로를 많이 관찰하고 그려보는 귀중한 자기 발전의 시간이 되었으면 합니다.

For the last few days, I kept sketching various scenes in the center of Jongno to prepare for the exhibition. The colorful streetscapes around Jongno-gu office attracted my attention.I sketched some buildings along the old streets in Jongno, downtown Seoul.
I was absorbed in midsummer sketching and cooled off from the heat with a cup of iced coffee.

주중 며칠간 점심시간을 이용해서 뜨거운 종로 한복판에 그늘과 시원한 곳을 찾아
펜대와 수채물감, 연필가루 날리며~~ 냉커피 한잔에 땀을 식히면서
새로운 소재들과 마주하며 "스케치 피서"를 즐겼습니다.
