We started off next to the ‘I Goat’ sculpture on Brushfield Street, which was our meeting point throughout the day, and then we headed off in all directions to get started with our sketches.

There was a good mix of old and new buildings and although there were plenty of indoor and undercover options, most sketchers took advantage of the unseasonably warm and dry weather to sketch outside all day.

By lunchtime it seemed that lots more people had arrived, with probably at least 60 in total including visiting sketchers from places as far afield as Finland and the USA.

There was an almost overwhelming choice of things to sketch in Spitalfields and it was interesting to compare sketchbooks and see not only the different artistic styles within the group, but also the wide range of subjects we had all chosen.

Thank you to all the sketchers who came along and helped to make this such a fun day.


This day was organised by Cathryn Worrell and Daniel Lloyd-Morgan
