Kulisse



Winter sketching often means bar or café sketching, either with a cup of coffee to warm up or with a beer to let the lines flow more loosely.
One of the local places i like is Kulisse; it has a dimly lit interior, a lot of dark wood paneling and theatre themed decoration. Also very tasty Flammekuchen.

Schnee immerzu

I´m reposting my first post to Urban sketchers, from last month, with two additional winter sketches.

It´s winter, which means it´s not exactly sketching season in Germany and I haven´t been drawing much. I leave for work when it´s still dark, and when I come home, it´s dark again, and of course, it´s terribly cold outside. So I drew these views from various windows of my appartment.




These are drawn in square sketchbook with grey paper that i hadn´t used before. It´s nice to use a darker paper to play around with negative space- but it seems the only thing i can draw in it are desaturated winter scenes!



It´s March now and you´d think spring might be coming along, but it´s been snowing again.
