I went to my first baseball game at the impressive AT&T Park in San Francisco-stunning location on the waterfront with the Bay Bridge and Treasure Island as the backdrop.
I love drawing in the Mission, there's always something interesting going on. Last time I was there some latino classic car enthusiasts rolled up for an impromptu motor-show. Even the cops were taking pictures.
I went up north to the Western Railway Museum in Solano County
Lots of jackrabbits bounding between the old railcars & engines

With animation pals Mark Stanleigh, Jason Spencer Galsworthy & Jamie Baker I drew at the Japanese Tea Garden in Golden Park . . .
From Golden Gate Park we moved onto Haight Ashbury to draw one of the old Victorian houses
The Palace of Fine Arts, the Presidio
Broadway: no sketchcrawl would be complete without rounding it off at my favourite North Beach watering hole-Vesuvio's
I'm often asked what pens or brushes I use to make location sketches.
My director Ronnie del Carmen turned me onto these unusual pens available from MAIDO in Japantown. They're expensive but offer a great range of marks and line qualities.

Wow Matt! These are fantastic!
Superbe! send me some pens.
I want the same kind of treatment when I'll come visit you, sketching around town and finish at the Vesuvio.

Yeh man! Looks great!
Fantastic work inspiring as ever thanks for sharing
Love following your sketch crawls. The drawing of Vesuvios is terrific - I wonder how you plan such complicated scenes. Nice to see the photo of exotic pens from far off lands too ...mmm stationery.
Lovely drawings, Matt!
Surely it's about time these were exhibited somehow? Have a show in SF
How fun!
I wish I can join your little sketch-group-fun!
Great work as always, thank you for sharing!
