Travelling and sketching are both wonderful things, so let's combine them!
In this class we will start by choosing a place to sketch which means something to you, and either go there, or do a bit of armchair travel via Google Street View. Â We will take a walk around and do a bit of detective work to discover all the things which give it a real sense of place. Â
We will sketch the building shapes, windows, chimneys, doors, and all the little details, then mix them up to make a finished painting in watercolor which gives a real flavor of the location.
This class is suitable for anyone, and needs no special equipment.
Don’t forget to follow me to be kept up to date with my new classes.

If you would like to do more urban sketching on Street View and join in with other artists to virtually sketch the same location, take a look at Bill Guffey's excellent The Virtual Paintout. Â He also has a lot of information there about copyright relating to using Street View.
