Here’s a clever idea from Portland Urban Sketchers who issued a scavenger hunt list for sketchers to sketch on location and post to the blog – go check out some of the amazing sketches.

Here are the rules:

Get out and sketch as many things on the Scavenger Hunt List below (one item per sketch) and then Post to the blog. The person with the most scavenger hunt items posted on the blog by September 1, 2012 will get a prize. (This challenge is currently open to members of the google group and those that want to be a contributor to this blog.)

The Scavenger Hunt List:

• streetcar
• elk statue
• umbrella man
• inside Elephant’s Deli
• food cart
• lamp post
• fountain (any)
• fire hydrant
• musician
• dog with its owner
• someone wearing stripes
• the Bike Pile
• a watercraft of some sort
