The Urban Sketching movement started with Gabi Campanario, Seattle PI sketcher/journalist.
Gabi began with a flickr account, "urban sketchers," where he monitored the sketches posted by the ever growing numbers of members; then not long afterwards a blog appeared entitled, "Urban Sketchers."
In July of 2010 the Urban Sketchers held their first symposium in Portland, Oregon. We missed it!
This summer, 2011, the second symposium, "II International Urban Sketchers Symposium," was held in Lisbon, Portugal, July 21 - 23 (we missed this one too...). Click on the link, then click on "Photo Updates" to see their sketches.
