Sculpture by the Sea sketching

Last weekend we flew to Sydney

to do a few things, including the Seven Bridges Walk, which I featured last week ,

One of the other main events was to visit  Sculpture by the Sea . 

21ST ANNIVERSARY BONDI EXHIBITION  |   19 OCTOBER – 5 NOVEMBER 2017

Sculpture by the Sea returns to the Bondi Beach to Tamarama Beach coastal walk as the world’s largest free to the public sculpture exhibition. See the spectacular coastal walk transformed into a 2km long sculpture park over three weeks featuring 
100 sculptures by artists from Australia and across the world.

see a short video here  of some highlights.

My sketches are about the people visiting and viewing the sculptures, rather than the sculptures themselves. Sometimes I like the idea of a sketch telling a story , rather than a standalone drawing of an object, especially when it is in urban spaces. 

 

It was a warm sunny day (26 degree) and the walk is quite exposed along the Bondi Beach cliff (which are a work of natural art and sculpture and worth visiting without the sculptures and crowds) . I did not stay out in the sun too long sketching.

A great day . I was happy with my sketches.
