As we sketch the respective buildings, I’ll discuss and show ways to draw in perspective and correct individual sketches while explaining the geometry behind the drawing. There is also a session in a garden to sketch different kinds of foliage. I shall also demonstrate various techniques (colour pencils and watercolor pencils, watercolours, ink).
Bring your own tools and papers.
