Do you enjoy urban sketching and love to draw architecture? But maybe sometimes it’s hard to know where to start, or maybe you struggle with perspective drawing and feel overwhelmed by the process?
In this drawing class for beginners, I invite you to join me on a step-by-step drawing journey where we’ll draw together the Guggenheim Museum in New York City by Frank Lloyd Wright.
You will draw along with me in real time and we’ll dive into aspects of urban sketching and perspective drawing using pencil and pen on paper (optionally watercolor, color markers or drawing digitally).
On the way, you will learn:
- how to start a perspective drawing from scratch and how to set it up for success
- how to draw a 2-point perspective view
- the “bounding box” technique to draw organic shapes in perspective with ease
- how to work with scale and proportion
- how to add people to your perspective drawing so they fit in
- how to add textures and shading
- and more!
By the end of this class, you’ll create a drawing of the Guggenheim Museum in NYC which you’ll be proud of and you’ll become more confident in perspective drawing which will be useful for both design- and urban sketching.
This class is great for urban sketchers, architecture students or professionals, designers and everyone who loves to draw architecture.
For the basics of architectural sketching & drawing, check out my other beginner’s class Sketch Like an Architect, teaching you the basics from lines and 2D objects, perspective rules, through drawing people and trees, adding textures and shading, all the way to putting everything together in a compelling perspective drawing.
