Speed Sketching Urban Subjects, Oct 22nd, Sat 2pm

Sketching while travelling is one of those things I'm super fond of! Capturing memories through my own lens, with my own unique touch to it. Learn to speed sketch urban subjects so YOU too can capture your favourite places while travelling, even if you have very little time at hand! Using fundamental concepts of drawing, along with techniques and tricks that I've found useful, I'll take you through a step by step process of sketching urban subjects in a simple but effective way.

This will be a completely do-it-along-with-me workshop, so you have to be ready to get your hands dirty. We will be going through techniques, exercises & draw along examples so make sure you have all the materials ready.

Ages: This workshop is for adults because it will be fast paced but kids above 10 yrs who can keep up with the pace can also register.
