Quirky boats moored off the City Botanic Gardens. Sketches by Travis D. Hendrix, local artist extraordinaire. Travis' skill and experience has been a gift amongst this group. Urban Art Binge 23.03.2013

Paul Harris, a practicing fine artist, has a very distinct style. He works with many layers and the density of line. He has stretched himself in this drawing course to really learn the value of white space in helping his images to breathe. This is a beautiful sketch from the Botanic Gardens, playing with shapes, shadows, texture and contours. Excellent Paul! Urban Art Binge 23.03.2013

Alee Lee, finding beauty in the everyday. Urban Art Binge 23.03.2013

Gentle Jen Ramsey's style is feminine and strong. She's on a journey to discover the artist within and we're loving watching her blossom. Urban Art Binge 23.03.2013

Cathy Mardon, what a star! Here she's using the masking technique to frame her image.. though whoever said one must colour within the lines was a sham. You're playful and experimental attitude is awesome Cathy. Urban Art Binge 23.032013

Magic Maureen Beesley. Just look at these confident lines! Watch out for this one... Urban Art Binge 23.03.2013

Rosetta Cook drawing the view of the Brisbane River/Kangaroo Point Cliffs from the Gardens. Notice here how she's used the bleed of the 0.4 Artline pen to create extra depth in the canopy shadow. We're also loving how the minimal foreground is leading the eye through the composition. Nice one Rosetta! Urban Art Binge 23.03.2013

Nothing by halves, these bingers know how to put on a great spread. Sharing food is an essential part of the conversation here at UAB. We love the diversity and richness that each person brings to the table. Urban Art Binge 23.03.2013

Brisbane's Story Bridge, by Kathryn Illiff. Kathryn has been enjoying developing her own very quirky style. Whether it be capturing people or birds on the fly - to buildings, bridges or boats, her hand is unique and we love it! Urban Art Binge 23.03.2013

Christine Erskine-Smith's watercolour and ink sketch of two beautiful boats off the Botanic Gardens. This lady's linework has come SO far in the last 6 months. Sometimes it's hard to recognise progress within ourselves and such is the beauty of creating works amongst the company of others. Hoorah! Urban Art Binge 23.03.2013

Angela Cowan has an eye for the subtle and emotive qualities of drawing, capturing moments that many would overlook. Just beautiful. Urban Art Binge 23.03.2013
