TUTORIAL FOR THIS WEEK: Simple Urban Sketching

This week we're sketching buildings in front view! These can be a lot of fun because we aren't distracted by working out perspectives. My favourites are 2 and 3. I can also add some people walking to any of these photos to make them more interesting. 

Which would you like to see me sketch? Vote below and let me know in the comments if there's you like me to focus on in the tutorial. 

WHAT'S COMING UP:

Week Starting 25th September: People Sketching - Clothing & Folds

Week Starting 2nd October: Urban Objects - Vintage Planes

Week Starting 9th October: Portraits at any angle - up and down

feel a bit sorry for Mudgee - they are all appealing but I like to draw buildings from places I've been, thus the appeal of Amsterdam.

Lorna Graham

I have just returned from Amsterdam so no 3 for me 😊

Stephanie Wright

Love the Amsterdam building. I wish we had lovely buildings like that here.

Rick Morris

I’m going with either 2 or 3

Tanya Nelson

Hi Scottie- I responded as a comment to the first post (I think). But I’d also be very interested in seeing how you’d choose where to add people & how you’d go about it in the composition process. Thanks- as always!

Yarong Ashley

Would love to see both Amsterdam and Warsaw :-)

Datrianna

Hi Scottie! Can you cover how you determine what order to draw things?

Mary L Doty

I think 4 has lots of color and character. #3 would also work.

Renata B

I vote for Amsterdam because of the other elements (trees, bicycles, water) that make the scene with the buildings.

Susan

I like 2 and 3.
