Another print of Fitzroy's Black Cat heading to a new home today. I thought it would be fun to see it with the bendy original that I sketched in the street and painted at home later on. Just out of sight is the bit of paper I had to tape to the top of the centre tower - it can be tricky to judge heights and I regularly run out of room! Even though I drew this back in 2021 I still remember sitting in the street on my stool drawing as passers by stopped to chat and even told me the name and back story of every pigeon on the roof 😂 #helendrawsbrunswickstreet #blackcatfitzroy #archisketch #fitzroy #streetsketch
A snippet of Melbourne's St Paul's Cathedral from Federation Square. A visit by from London was a great excuse to get out sketching, chatting about art materials, urban sketchers and travel:) #helendrawsmelbourne #melbourneurbansketchers #stpaulscathedral
An oldie, but a goodie. Right near the beginning of Brunswick Street, Fitzroy, these gorgeous buildings were amongst the first I drew way back in 2019, when I could never have imagined I'd still be drawing the same street 7 years later! #helendrawsbrunswickstreet #brunswickstreet #passionproject #melbourneartist
Printing and signing a couple of prints fresh off the "press". Always a slightly anxiety provoking moment - will I spell something wrong? Will I somehow get finger prints on it? Will I forget how to sign my name??? (Don't laugh - how often do we do that anymore?) Will I muck something up while packaging? It's not so uncommon for me to redo prints entirely if I'm not 100% happy with them. But then, I do feel a real pride seeing them all finished and ready to go:) Hopefully you'll recognise at least one of these buildings! #helendrawsbrunswickstreet #flinderstreetstation #melbourneartist #melbournesketch
Another snippet of Brunswick Street finished, this time in North Fitzroy. It was such a glorious day to be out in the sunshine, so perfect timing to finish this section I started a year ago. I sat at the tram stop to draw the last two terraces on the right, and only just dodged being caught by the odd roof decoration which did NOT look like a clam shell like the others. The icing on the cake was scoring a surprise visit from my three week old great nephew! Sooo cute:) #helendrawsbrunswickstreet #brunswickstreetfitzroy #architecturesketch #melbourneurbansketchers #urbansketching
I've finished drawing quite a few sections of Brunswick Street lately but I'm really struggling with how to share what a very loooong drawing looks like in a tall and skinny Instagram format. Do you have any suggestions? This is the section from Johnston Street to Victoria Street if you haven't already guessed. It starts with the old post office and and finishes with #helendrawsbrunswickstreet #urbansketching #brunswickstreetfitzroy #melbourneartist
Yesterday would have been my mum's 100th birthday, so we planned to have a special family dinner in Brunswick Street. My daughter and I decided to fill in time beforehand sketching and enjoying a nice glass of red at the Black Cat. This was my view out the window. Truly life is good:) #melbourneurbansketchers #urbansketching #helendrawsbrunswickstreet #sketchbook #brunswickstreetfitzroy
This was my last sketch in Hahndorf, as we waited for our ride to the airport. The driver arrived early and in our rush to grab our gear and leave I forgot to take a photo. It's the German Inn, according to its own signage with the best coffee in town, but I admit I have no idea if that's the case. Regardless, it is a very pretty building! #helendrawshahndorf #hahndorf #urbansketch #travelsketchbook
How does nearly 7 years of drawing Brunswick Street, Fitzroy, actually look, do I hear you ask? Well for the first time I laid it all out... I had to extend the table, put sketches next to the sink and on the stovetop, along our rainbow bookshelves and then into another room! I may be doing this slightly over the top passion project at a snail's pace, just a couple of hours a week, but with the help of my fellow sketchers as support crew I am STILL GOING! I would never have bet on that back when I started in January 2019, with the legendary Alf by my side! All the drawing was done on location, but the size of those long panoramas (which wave wildly in a breeze) drove me into my studio to add watercolour. Thank goodness I discovered the perfect paper early on, with all of these on Bockingford cold press watercolour paper. I ordered paper by the 10 metre roll and fought it into submission with cutting, folding and lots of squirts of water. And look what it has turned into! Obviously still much more to do, but what a fabulous project this has been, getting me out regularly not just to draw but also to enjoy long lunches with my peeps. You know who you are - thank you! #helendrawsbrunswickstreet #passionproject #panoramasketches #streetsketches #brunswickstreet
An A3 print of one of my earliest Brunswick Street sketches drawn back in 2019 when I was literally moving inch by inch down the street and it took 6 months to get from Victoria Parade to Gertrude Street - and that was only drawing one side of the street! I remember the seasons changing and the autumn leaves came out just as we got to these beautiful terrace houses - not that I would ever exaggerate colours... 😂. Anyway this print is off to a new home which is pretty exciting. Bonus points to my customer for taking advantage of my sale prices! #helendrawsbrunswickstreet #fineartprints #gicleeprints #streetsketch #brunswickstreetfitzroy
