SKETCH KIT:
You’ll only need the colours I use - or similar. https://erinhillsketching.com/the-sketch-kit
Any sized sketch book you like - but with flat white paper, preferably ring bound so we can do double page spreads. Not textured watercolour paper though.
You won’t need any more than what’s in my kit above, so try not to bring the kitchen sink!!
What else to bring: Money for lunch and coffee,
Optional: A folding stool if you wish.
A big smile and a love of learning
SUBJECTS:
Cafe sketching, Architecture, Streetscapes, Parks and gardens. No photos needed - we sketch by observing what’s around us.

Travel Sketching has been my particular passion for more than two decades. In my former life I was an Advertising art director who then became a gallery owner.
Now as an International Sketch Tutor and Urban Sketcher, I enjoy taking sketchers from their early moments with a sketchbook and pen to pride and astonishment at the sketching result they achieve. Away from the studios I write, illustrate and video my technique on line (and seem to have gained a considerable social media following).
My particular skill lies in the ability to break down into deceptively simple steps the way the eye works with the hand to produce a sketch image. Experienced and new sketchers alike benefit from an improved understanding of seeing and the tips and techniques.
I look forward to you joining me soon.
