Sketching on the Fly: A whirlwind Tour of Southeast Asia
I just returned from a three-month tour of Southeast Asia. To record the experience in my sketchbook I had to move quickly and adapt to a constantly changing environment — navigating bustling streets, intense heat and unfamiliar cultural norms. In this talk I’ll share my favorite sketches from the trip, anecdotes from meeting up with fellow sketchers and tips I learned along the way that will serve me well on future sketching adventures.

Jane Wingfield got her start at the Chicago Art Institute and later studied art in college and sumi painting in Tokyo. She started sketching on location in 2009 when she joined the fledgling Urban Sketchers Seattle at a gathering at Volunteer Park. Since then she has been sketching nonstop and volunteering with Urban Sketchers in Seattle and internationally. She has taught workshops in the Pacific Northwest and New York City. Sketching on location for more than 16 years has given her the gumption to start sketching just about anywhere. She believes travel sketches are not only fun to make but also the best souvenirs to bring home after a trip.
