The Sydney Sketch Club was introduced to me through a friend, Alissa, who I met through Life Drawing Classes at the AGNSW. The SSC is a gathering of artists and creative people and people who enjoy to draw. The membership is up around the 250 mark though most meetups have less that 20 people turn up. The group gathers at places all over Sydney to sketch/ paint/ photograph together. But although there is art activities on most weekends, there is a balance to be maintained in all of life. Not ALL art or ALL photography or ALL creative pursuits. However, I would have to say that artistic pursuits do add some degree of calm and also satisfaction and enjoyment in life. There are so many ideas for the first few months of 2011, of which I will be joining in. This group contains some pretty amazing artists. They definitely inspire. Some of them work at a very advanced level. I just stand back and admire. WOW!
I have embarked on self discovery through my creative side. I have always loved to draw but somehow felt that "art has passed me by". I want to capture the essense of that artist that is within me and see what I can become.
