A week in New York Part 3 - Sketching with NYC Urban Sketchers

One wonderful thing about having to travel a day early is that I was able to sketch with NYC Urban Sketchers on the Wednesday and meet up with Alyssa!

After meeting at the Oculus and going for a matcha latte and a chat, we headed to Fosun Plaza to sketch the Wild Couch Party.  It was so good to see Alyssa again. This was our third time meeting, first time in Trinity College Dublin in 2022, second time in Auckland at the Urban Sketchers Symposium in 2023. We will have to plan for 2025!

Later on, Suzala joined us and we continued sketching at the plaza, just taking a different view. It was getting close to lunchtime and it was hot!

And finally we sketched near the Seaport and it was time to say goodbye. And did I mention that it was hot in the city! Such a nice change from Dublin. But important to keep hydrated. Also, did I mention that Suzala and me had never met before. But Uma was right, we got on like a house on fire!
