In this one hour class you will learn hands on practical skills Perspective Basics, which will enable you to develop that Artistic Eye and sketch what you see like a pro!

A class that enables you to go out and paint your city! Urban sketching is a way of storytelling, you can create a documentary narrative of your life through your pen & brush!

It connects you with the nature, your surrounding and other fellow artists. I will guide you into overcoming your fear to go out and paint in public and become a confident artist. Get my personal suggestions in creating your watercolor palette that I followed myself :)

In this class I will take you outside to paint a carefully selected subject, A Potted Planter Stand, in which we will locate and mark Horizon line, Eye level, base line and finally teach you ‘Pencil Sighting Technique’ that helps u in creating perfectly scaled painting.
