A few weeks ago, I visited beautiful beautiful Italy. Although I made some travel sketches on location while I was there, today I come to you with a full-process urban sketching video using a photograph I took of Venice. This will be the first of my Sketching Italy Series, where I will soon be sketching the remainder of the locations we visited (Verona, Lake Como, Milan and Bergamo)
I take you through my entire process - the pencil drawing, ink sketch and watercolour washes, as well as explaining why I use some other tools too. Full list of materials can be found below. Thanks so much for being here :)
