London urban sketchers met up in the Design Muesum on Kensington High Street in November. I decided to brave the gloomy weather and sketch out doors in the nearby Holland Park. Kyoto Garden, opened in 1991, was a gift from the city of Kyoto to celebrate the long standing friendship between Japan and Great Britain.

After missing out on the first two live USk London sketch crawls, I finally made it to the Spetember edit at Ealing Broadway and Pitzhanger Manor. The side order of sun we ordered didn’t arrive until later in the afternoon, but it turned out to be a lovely day of sketching and catching up with so many talented sketchers. It’s been a long time coming!
