RECURRING CREATIVE HANGOUT · WITH ROBERT SCHOLTEN

Urban Sketching Hangout

Get out into the city with Robert Scholten and draw or paint what is in front of you: streets, buildings, shopfronts, people and the small details you might otherwise pass by. Bring a portable kit and make alongside others.

An outing with room to look

The hangout is about spending time outside, noticing the city and keeping a sketching habit going. Choose your own subject and medium. Robert sketches with the group; the session is not a formal lesson, guided technique course or one-to-one critique.

The format

Host: Robert Scholten.
Setting: streets and public spaces in Melbourne.
Recurring day, frequency, duration, meeting point, start date and price: to be confirmed. Each confirmed outing will specify where to meet and the practical arrangements.

Travel light

A sketchbook and pencil or pen are enough to begin. If you prefer to paint, bring a compact watercolour kit, water container and a way to carry your materials. Choose supplies you can comfortably use outdoors. Check the confirmed outing details for weather arrangements, walking requirements and any additional equipment.

Choose your own pace

The group is a reason to go out and make time for observation. You can draw loosely, paint small studies or work on one subject for longer. Before booking, discuss access needs and the planned route or locations with LAB TWO6.
