I fell down a rabbit hole. There exists an Urban Sketchers Switzerland, and the Zurich sketch event this weekend is part of its yearly symposium. Angst level 11.

I joined the Urban Sketchers Bern Facebook group - which fills me full of angst because there are real artists involved.

This is another in the series of portraits of colleagues - those poor guinea pigs of my retirement art hobby.

I wanted to loosen up on the detail a bit this time, which means drawing and painting in the style of an artist instead of a draftsman. A sad fail of course.

I definitely prefer watercolour over ink outline, compared to just watercolour. It has more of the Beatrix Potter flavour, which is, I guess, the effect I'm aiming for.

I made another trip into Bern today to practice 'en plein air' painting. It rained.
