We had a really fun time on our first cycle-based SketchCrawl. You can read all about the day on the main blog post, but here is some of the sketchbook work that other people did. I will add more stuff on, as folks email images to me.
Yes, we have been out SketchCrawling again! Above is a drawing done my fellow SketchCrawler Jane Horton (more or her work below). You can read a full account of our day in Sheffield's Castle Market, and see my sketches from the morning and from the afternoon on the main blog, but here are highlights from the sketchbooks of some of the other people who took part:

As you can see from Bryn Hughes's drawing below, as well as the stalls and market traders, there were also some wonderful views to be had from upstairs in the market: Bryn Hughes:
I have been a professional artist all my life. I have illustrated over 30 children's books, created large public murals and now work as a reportage-artist, sketching life as it happens, often alongside academic researchers. In the time between sketching residencies, I create hand-stitched, fine-art textiles, translating my love of mark-making and colour into thread.
I am an Urban Sketchers correspondent and my book Sketching People was published by Search Press and Barrons in 2016.
I give inspirational lectures, and run workshops, both in the UK and abroad, for adults and in schools. I have delivered events in Beijing, Brazil, Spain, the Dominican Republic, Chicago, and Perth, Australia.
Email me if you would like to book a talk or workshop. If you are interested in a particular aspect of my work, want to follow an individual project, or find out more Yorkshire's free monthly SketchCrawls, check out the labels below.
