Sketch Artist

17 Knock, Knock, Knock. No answer, no reply. Looking around, he checked the number on the building, it had seemed such an unlikely spot after all. Reaching into his pocket he pulled out a folded note. Torn from thick heavy paper, its edges feathered with fine graphite lines, the fade out of some sketch were overwritten with a confident hand. The address was right, and the time... 16 "Hey" the call spun him on the spot. There she was, the girl with the sketchbook. Grinning, he moved to walk toward her until she held up a hand. "No" she paused, letting her bag drop to the ground, crouching to rummage in it, and rising again with a sliver of charcoal in her hand. "Stay just where you are." As she spoke, more like her appeared, each with sketchpad in hand. Soft murmurings of voices drifted across the lane to him as they nodded to each other. "The light here is perfect..." she said, settling down next to her bag on the cobblestones, her hand already tracing the lines of the building behind him onto the page. "Now, take off your shirt." 18 Changing things up a bit, with one for the bois. More from District 5!

District5

2 L'école d'art had an expansive summer programme, sending students across the continent in search of ideas. 1 Each student, talented in their own way, packed up their new bags and went out to explore. 3 Everyone was given their choice of equipment, the tools of their trade with which to hone their craft. 4 8 Some would work in marble, others in fabrics or oils. 7 Each began with pencils and paper, wandering the streets and lanes of strange towns for inspiration. 5 All would come together in the end, in the name of art. 6 Ah... Depraved Nation. NEVER disappoints. If you haven't been to District5 yet, where have you been? What have you been doing? Eh? Wait! Don't go yet! *chuckles* Here's what you can expect.
1 SIM - Five themed areas like the spokes of a wheel. From cheerful and rustic, to grimy and sordid - there's something for everyone. Here's a little of what I found - with more to come soon!
