This class is the first part of a series of Venice-themed travel sketching courses, where you will learn how to draw and paint some beautiful Venice landscapes. Join me on a virtual sketching trip to Venice! Included are some historical facts and videos of this beautiful city.

In this course, I will show you the FUN and EASY way to enter into the world of watercolours, and turn your holiday photographs or any reference picture into simple, yet beautiful paintings. By the end of this course, you will have a firm understanding of the processes and techniques of turning any photograph into a pen and wash painting!

This course is split into two main parts; Part 1 - Turning a photograph into a sketch, and Part 2 - using watercolours to add colour and value. I will walk you through how to complete this painting step by step.

If you are a beginner at drawing and painting, this is the perfect course for you to get started and understand the essential techniques and exercises required to create an urban sketch.
