Join the Chicago-Midwest ICAA inside the grand interior of Union Station, 225 S. Canal Street, Chicago. This timeless space holds numerous sketching subjects, from it's soaring spaces to its sculptures, columns and other classical ornamentation. Participants may sketch in their preferred medium - pencil, pen and ink, colored pencil or watercolor.

Sketching series led by Stephen Siegle. Steve has been a practicing architect since 1990, and he has also worked periodically in architectural education, including two years as Visiting Assistant Professor iwth the University of Illinois at Urbana - Champaign's Study Abroad Program at Versailles (now Barcelona). Steve is a proponent of analyzing architecture in the classical tradition of capturing a building's design, proportions and atmospheric qualities directly as observed through hand-drawing techniques. At the onset of the Pandemic, several chapters of the ICAA sponsored a weekly series of "virtual sketch trips" to architectural landmarks around the world. This opportunity renewed Steve's passion for hand drawing and painting in watercolor. Examples of his work can be seen on Instagram @stephendsiegle.
