Every December, for 5 years, Studio 1482 has been busy preparing for the festivities of….drumroll….Calendar mailings! It’s become a ritual in a sense. As the day approaches, we anticipate meeting as a group, and having coffee and goodies on a Saturday morning. The piles of envelopes are stacked high, and the hundreds of new calendars adorned with beautiful new artwork remind us that a new year is just around the corner. There’s always some stickering involved, along with the stuffing of the envelopes. And once there was a need for ironing! (Video release TBA) If that doesn’t feel like the holidays, I don’t know what does! There’s lots of love and laughs, and underlying it all, a commitment to…umm…marketing? Oh, yes! This is after all, the ritual of promoting our Studio with sending out calendars to our wonderful clients and to our future clients 
So here’s to 5 years!
From all of us at Studio 1482 – Michele, Greg, Despina, Margaret, Veronica, Kati, Eddie and Dominick,
Happy Holidays and All the Best for the New Year!
Urban Sketchers, the group blog with the motto “see the world, one drawing at a time,” is now a nonprofit organization. The new non-profit hopes to serve the artistic global community by organizing educational workshops and raising funds for grants, scholarships and publications to foster the art of on-location drawing. Gabriel Campanario, a Seattle-based journalist who founded Urban Sketchers, said the nonprofit’s goal is “to raise the artistic, educational and storytelling value of location drawing.”
We at Studio 1482 support this goal whole-heartedly. Three of our members, Margaret Hurst, Greg Betza and Veronica Lawlor are UsK correspondents, and Ms. Lawlor has been not only invited to serve on the board of the non-profit, but has also been elected the group’s first treasurer.
The drawings shown above have been donated to the fund-raising efforts of the Urban Sketchers non-profit. The first three contributors with donations of $75.00 or more will receive a signed print of one of the images above from one of the three Studio 1482 illustrators. To donate, click HERE.
Two of our studio members, Veronica and Margaret, teach reportage drawing at their own school, Dalvero Academy, and they are especially happy to be involved with an international non-profit group that fosters this art form.
Studio 1482 wishes the group the best of luck with furthering the art of location drawing, our first love here at reportageillustrators.com!
