What is Urban Sketching?

Urban sketching is the art of documenting the scenes you encounter in everyday life. Although the term “urban” refers to big cities and metropolises, urban sketching can be done anywhere, from your trip to the beach to your backyard.

Why Urban Sketching?

Why urban sketching? A photo will suffice… right? No! While a photo also captures the same scenes, with urban sketching, you can add your own artistic touch. Everyone views the world with different eyes. Urban sketching is the best way to show the world how you view everything around you!

Interested? Here’s What You’ll Learn

How to fully utilize a pen

Did you know there’s a special way you’re supposed to hold a pen? Learn how to properly grasp the pen, and start with the basics of drawing lines and controlling pressure. The seemingly complex techniques are actually not that difficult! Sketch Forum will help you build a strong foundation for pen drawing.

What are hatching lines?

Hatching lines are often used to depict an appearance of a shadow. Lines are drawn close together and it can also create textures and tones. In engineering, hatching lines also indicate different materials.

In this class, Sketch Forum will teach you how to use hatching lines to express various shapes, textures, and three-dimensional effects. Completed urban sketches are composed of numerous hatch lines that convey atmosphere. Grasp the fundamentals of using hatching lines, and apply it to your urban sketch drawings!

Starting with a skeleton sketch

Instructor will systematically teach you how to understand, then apply, perspective and three-dimensionality, and the wireframe technique to form the structure of your urban sketches as if you were building a skeleton. After learning this, you will never be lost in the world of urban sketching.

Drawing people, trees, and cars

Wouldn't it be awkward if there were no people walking around, trees on the streets, or cars moving along the roads around buildings that were well drawn with pen? Also, if the movement of figures, the grain of the leaves, the angles of the car are poorly expressed, it would put all your hard work to waste.

Let's learn in detail how to understand and redefine the shapes and movements of a person, how to draw trees of various shapes and sizes, and how to view and draw a car from different angles, along with tips to drawing more of the elements that will make up your urban sketches.

Coloring doesn’t have to be precise.

Don’t worry about making mistakes or coloring over lines. Color is meant to be free. Sketch Forum will show you how to let go of your fears with coloring and fill your beautiful urban sketches with color.

Beautiful colors aren’t only expressed through difficult techniques. Learn painting techniques using watercolors that even beginners can master. Color the way you want and complete your own urban sketches.
