Urban Sketching: Storytelling and How to Start a Sketch

This is a beginner’s course on urban sketching where I talk about storytelling, and how you can start a sketch.

Storytelling can make your sketch more meaningful and impactful. You can control and create aspects of story that goes into a sketch. But sometimes the story can happen to you, which is what makes urban sketching so fun. 

In this course, I will show you some sketches from my sketchbook and talk about the stories behind them.

In the second part of the course, I will show you how to start a sketch to make the sketching process as simple as possible for beginners. You’ll learn the importance of starting your sketch the right way so as to avoid making mistakes later on.
