Rehearsal of the Echo du Reculet

http://www.carolinadeluca.com/urban-sketching

It's been a while since the last time, but today I was back to sketch one of the rehearsals of the Echo du Reculet. Some of the people that I sketched before are not there anymore, some are still and forever playing their instruments, others joined not so long ago. But again it was such a pleasure to sketch listening to their music. Thanks for a lovely evening, Echo du Reculet :)

Picnicando

http://www.carolinadeluca.com/urban-sketching

With the good weather, picnic and barbecue season is open! Today we've been at La Perle du Lac, in Geneva, with friends. It was so hot we even took a swim in the lake Léman. This is one of the views we had from where we were sitting, the Musée d'Historie des Sciences, and some people sunbathing and I'd say melting under that strong midday sun!

La médiathèque

http://www.carolinadeluca.com/urban-sketching

The first time I went to the Esplanade du Lac, this afternoon, I was lucky the médiathèque was open. Such a relaxing experience drawing in this quiet place full of books. Now I am going back to the Esplanade in like 20 minutes, not sure I will be able to draw... but I'll bring my stuff just in case!

L'Esplanade Du Lac

http://www.carolinadeluca.com/urban-sketching

This week we're going to be a lot in here. My daughter is having her dance and chorale singing shows of the year, 4 shows in total, two general rehearsals... A lot. Today was the rehearsal for the first of the shows, I went a bit earlier to pick her up, and I had time for a little sketch :) 

Another wonderful sunny-summerlike day here, in the Pays de Gex :D

Smelling of Summer

http://www.carolinadeluca.com/urban-sketching

What a wonderful day today. Hot and sunny, everything green. Mid-may and smelling of Summer. I had a bit of time before my afternoon class and I absolutely wanted to spend some time outdoors... but I had promised myself to take a rest, so... that called for a sketch!!

This one is right in my village, Crozet, the mairie at the right, some little houses, the little hutch where things to eat are sold during parties, and my beloved Jura in the back. And yes, it really felt like a beautiful Summer day, in May. And how lucky is that: we're having another one like this tomorrow!
