Incase anyone is interested, a few people & myself from the Conceptart.org/forum in NYC are working to pull off a NYC subway sketchbook group. The next time we plan to meet up will be the following Sundays in April. The 10, 17, & 24th, 1:30pm at the Starbucks outside Penn Station (34th Street between 7th and 8th Ave. right next to 1 Penn Plaza). If you're interested, but can't meet on that day or time, please feel free to note me.

Every week our plan is to ride a different subway line & spend a few hours assaulting the personal space of unassuming subway travelers in an effort to sketch them. Bring your pens, pencils, charcoal and sketchbooks.

Drawing on the subway presents a great opportunity to observe people. Also, by not providing you with a lot of time or still poses it forces you to get down the essential gesture of a person. I've been told & read that many learning artists have used this strategy to improve & develop their life drawing skills. George Pratt (Enemy Ace, Wolverine: Netsuke), credits this method for his development as well. He would spend hours on the subway to & from Pratt Institute in the late 70's sketching people. As such, we welcome every skill level, from beginners up.

Just sharing something that's developing from CA.org:
AmishCommy's Subway Sketchbook

Inspired by Digi's Toronto Sketchbook thread, ~goldenavatar and myself are starting our own subway sketch group in NYC.

The plan is to meet up March 27nth at 1-2pm at the Starbucks just west of Kmart and from there we'll head to the subway, ride the 2 up to the Bronx Zoo, and then back down through Manhattan into Brooklyn. Great fun and entertainment for a mere $2.00! Everyone's invited so come on down. This will be very informal so just come on down and find us and introduce yourself.

It's a great way to meet some artists, share some tips and learn from each other. If you want to keep track of the Sketchgroups work, by all means click this link, and check out our stuff as we put it up.
