Cool Blog: Urban Sketchers.

As a person who draws all the time, my sketchbooks are filled with random drawings made wherever I happen to be - pictures of a stage before a concert starts, or a big rock in the ocean, or a street, or a cup of coffee in a cafe, or just parts of my environment.

Over the years I've accumulated these little drawings from numerous states and countries, and I love when I come across them later. 

I really feel like I really am somewhere once I have 1) Gone for a run there and 2) Drawn it. The place, not the run.

So, I'm enjoying looking through this blog, Urban Sketchers - it's like touring around the world through people's sketches, and for me at least many of these pictures seem almost more real than a photograph. Take a look at how different people see their cities and towns and streets. It's super cool.
