Welcome to Urban Sketching! ~ By Allen Smalling This review is from: Urban Sketching: 100 Postcards: 100 Beautiful Location Sketches from Around the World (Cards)The modern "Urban Sketchers" movement is a recent one. According to Wikipedia, "In the early 2000s a man or a woman with a small sketchbook and a pen or a brush were beginning to be fixtures in coffee shops, parks, streets and airports. Sketching as a practice is experiencing a renaissance; and the Urban Sketching movement is encouraging participation through word of mouth and in art classes and on-line social networking." Technically, sketching begins with lines and adds softer lines and colors, but techniques vary. Some of the hundred postcards in this box contain detailed, line-only sketches, others are full-scale artworks; my favorites use line and just a little color (frequently water colors) to pick out the most interesting highlights of the subject matter.Just as technique varies, so does subject matter: Piers and plazas and pagodas; people in cafes and at ball games, lounging and shopping. The bulk of these cards take place in urban settings full of people, but nature and architectural studies are found here too. As "dean" of the movement, Gabriel Campanario has some scenes from his book in this box, but really this is a selection of all kinds of artists from all over the world. The cards are good and thick and ideal for "Postcrossing" and other mailing purposes. The "blank" side lists artists and views. There is no dividing line between text and address fields, but that is a minor inconvenience. Highest recommendations for these varied, content-rich and surprisingly sophisticated cards in their sturdy box.The source of the artwork in this postcard collection: The Art of Urban Sketching: Drawing On Location Around The World by Gabriel Campanario.

My one minor complaint is that some of the cards have these sharp white borders and it distracts from some of the artwork when there's this stark demarcation that obviously isn't original to the sketch. I would have preferred for the art to take up the entire card (do they not get high resolution images to turn into postcards?) or, in the case of some of the sketches that have off-white backgrounds, for the border to have been color matched to that off-white background. But I'm not a huge fan of white borders on postcards in general, so for others this might be a total non-issue and this set of postcards is actually the least offensive I've come across when it comes to borders. Many of the borders don't distract because they aren't as thick, they're the same white as the background of the sketch, or the textured edge of the artwork is maintained so the border doesn't feel like it was slapped on.Some of the sketches were photographed/scanned while still in the sketchbook, so you can see the rings or the edges of the book, and I really like that detail. I also like that there're plenty of sketches of places from the US and plenty from outside the US. I've noticed that with a lot of the postcard sets I've purchased there'll be a lot of throwaway cards, basically cards where the composition is really bad or the image is too blurred or boring to send to anyone, but there aren't any postcards from this set that I would be hesitant to use!Overall a very nice set of postcards that're well worth the money.

Like with most sets, you don't get to choose, but you do get a wide variety of cards - one each and each one unique. I guess this would only be a problem if you really like one card and you only get one. You have a large selection from line drawings to water colors. They're not in any particular order from what I can tell which is a slight issue when I'm looking for something in particular, but it's not a deal breaker. They're stacked in the box and there's a ribbon that allows you to pick them up easier.All in all, great quality and variety. However, it would be nice if they were organized by location/country or something of the sort.
