Today was the worst day as far as I remembered in my outdoor painting. Windy, rainy, cold.... But new comer, Lee Mi-na, made us delighted. She came from Daegu city located nearly 300 km far from Seoul by KTX train to participate in this sketchcrawl in spite of bad weather. We were glad to meet her and hoped to come as often as she could. She would send her nice drawings with colored pencil for posting. We couldn't sketch much though the Bukchon Hanok Village was very beautiful in Spring. Welcome and thank you all!

The Korean Orthodox Church (St. Nicholas Orthodox Church) is an Eastern Orthodox church in Korea. Built in a Greek style, although not that big, the church’s oxidized copper-green dome and matching cross are easily noticeable from the approach and the surroundings. Though it was a bit cold and windy on the street, inside the courtyard of the church it was shiny and seemed to be so peaceful. I sketched the elegant and beautiful church here and there in earnest.
New participants are welcome to join our Seoul urban sketchers! Thanks.

It was windy and cold in the morning. But inside the church the weather was rather warm and shiny. The church was near from the Aeogae Station, Subway No. 5. It looked beautiful and has calm atmosphere surrounded by village houses. Today two new participants have come. Welcome so much! Hope you to join us as often as you can! Thank you all!
