sketch city melbourne

__________________________________________________________________________–
++++ I visited the nice, little &  monthly art/music event Sketch City in Melbourne.
It´s a place to sketch on everthing you can find. Walls, paper, cardboard, wood…..
And it was for me as a backpacking illustrator/artist a nice place to work with some
live funk/soul music in the background.
