TUTORIAL FOR THIS WEEK: Urban Objects - Boats

Boats are a great opportunity for us to practice loose and sketchy line work! My favourite one here is #3 with all its ropes and chains. But what do you think? The silhouette of these other boats are more distinctive and it made me wonder what you thought was the most eye catching at first glance. Let me know below which interests you most! 

WHAT'S COMING UP:

Week Starting 11th September: Small heads (Practicing simple details when sketching small heads)

Week Starting 18th September: Urban Sketching - Simple Buildings 

Week Starting 25th September: People Sketching - Clothing

Looking forward to hearing from you below!

Hi, Scottie. I'm interested in the ones that have the most clear reflection of the boat in the water. But they all look interesting 🙂

Lilian Topic

I voted for 3 because it looks more difficult to draw something on the left if that makes sense. I really like 1 as well.

Mary L Doty

Good morning. I like # 1 because of the colors and the nice back drop.

Sandrine Salas

I love all of them, but 1 and 2 are my favorites

Deborah Rifkin

I am also interested in learning how to draw reflections. Thanks!

Stephanie Wright

Boat #1 is my first choice and #4 is my second choice. I like the colours as well as the refections.

Johanne

Boat 2 looks challenging: it's shape, the complexity of the background, and a figure that almost looks too tall for the boat 🙂. I would like to see how you simplify the scene.

Rick Morris

I like 1 and 4 Scottie. I like their bright colors and especially the reflection in the water of 4.

Karen King

#1 draws my eye to it, but #2 provides a good challenge with the shape of the bow and stern. Frankly, #3 looks like a nightmare!

Sandycab

Number 2 a lot of details to be patient and 4 reflections and water with sky how to make the difference between them. Not good in painting water,

Lorna Graham

Think I missed the boat but 1 and 4 for me. Love the colours, will always be a challenge for me as I’ve never attempted a boat in detail before 😊
