When you travel, you most likely rely on your photo camera to record beautiful architecture, but what if you could capture it in quick-hand in a sketchbook? Sketching can be one of the most satisfying experiences of your trip, especially if you learn to sketch quickly and effortlessly. It is even more gratifying if you are able to capture it in your own style. You may be surprised to know that sketching truly reveals your style - it is as much *you* as your handwriting.

The instructor will lead you step by step through every exercise with a full-length demonstration. You'll be given inspiring photo references to work from, along with a complete supply list with links to high-quality materials. If you already have the materials listed, you do not need to buy additional supplies. You'll also be able to hear questions from students in the recording, enriching your experience with even more information.

The details of an urban scenery such as historic facades, coffee shops, food carts, and kiosks contribute the texture to the city’s special flavor; and you will learn how to capture all these features in quick hand while minding perspective. The instructor will introduce basic one and two point perspective so no matter your art experience, you'll be able to construct your drawings with confidence. When you are comfortable with sketching, even a view from your hotel window becomes a welcome motif, a great option especially if it’s raining/snowing.

Urban sketching makes the busy world stay still.
