‘Sketching in a venice wine bar’
Aquarelle pencil & Line Sketch
ABOUT
Sketching in a cafe, bistro, restaurant, trattoria or similar - is so enjoyable.
Join me as I do lunch in this very typical Venetian Wine Bar sketching what I see.
I always love a garden where we’ll be seated and seeing how the locals order their food and wine, and what local cuisine will be on the menu.
This one is done in Aquarelle Pencil - very convenient in a cafe.
We’re using Aquarelle Pencil over our line sketch.
I layer the colours to get light and dark and I take you through as I do it.
You can then set up one of your own and follow the same steps, on location of course.
By taking the time to observe and learn my techniques, you’ll soon see how it applies to more complex subjects with ease.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN
•To take what at first appears a complicated scene - and simplify it.
•You will learn where to start your sketch and how to build the pieces in.
•To apply one colour at a time, and not to fill every corner with paint.
•Keep plenty of white space which offsets your bright clear colour.
WHAT YOU GET
• You’ll receive several pages as a PDF similar to above.
•Each page has easy to follow instruction/guidance notes with full colour sketches to follow.
• We’ll start with the first planning sketch right through to the completed work in full colour.
• You can take as long as you like. Stop and start anytime.
•Aim for 30mins or so later, to do the sketch, and same for the colour.
•This is exactly the way I tutor my classes when we’re all together.
