Pen, Ink & Watercolor: Urban Sketching Intermediate Workshop

Continue your journey into sketching and illustration as we learn to capture architecture, streetscapes, everyday objects, and more using pen, ink, and watercolor. Each week, we'll grow on techniques that help you create expressive sketches filled with depth, character, and confidence.

You'll get deeper into using line weight, shading, hatching, perspective, and watercolor washes to bring your sketches to life. From loose floral studies to charming urban scenes, we'll explore how artists use pen and ink to simplify complex subjects and tell visual stories.

Whether you're interested in travel sketching, nature journaling, illustration, or simply learning a new artistic medium, this workshop is designed to help you develop your skills and discover your own sketching style.

We will meet every Thursday from 10am–12pm for four weeks. The dates are listed below, and the price covers all four sessions.

Thursdays from 10-12 in October : 1, 8, 15, 22
