Sketchcrawl #40, 1st West Coast USKers' Sketchcrawl

I love the idea of USKers' Sketchcrawl. I don't mind the confusion of urban sketchers or sketchcrawlers. We all love draw, sketch, and share our works. The passions and the inspirations that matter me the most. Thanks Jim from Washington state who I met at last year USK symposium, Santo Domingo. Without his initiatives and communication back and forth with the wonderful local sketchers, organizations, I wouldn't have so much fun drawing with 70+ sketchers the pass weekend. 

Time for sketches sharing:
