Wonky Buildings: pen and watercolour sketchbook - with Andrew James

Thursdays - 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm<br>27 August to 17 September<br>4-week course<br><br>Drawing straight lines is boring, and I can't be bothered finding vanishing points. This class is about pushing proportions and leaning into any mistakes we make, so our drawings are more fun and freer.<br><br>We'll draw with pen, learn how to split up complex buildings and scenes into their components, and bring the drawings to life with watercolour.<br><br>You'll leave with a bunch of drawings in your sketchbook, but more importantly, you'll have a system for approaching a drawing that will set you up for success, even in overwhelming or complicated scenes.<br><br>Beginning with the foundation of bold lines, we'll build a visual language and learn some tricks about how buildings work.<br><br>We'll gradually make our way from garden sheds to ornate facades. We'll also turn our hand to watercolours and learn a system for thinking about and mixing colours. We'll use those colours to bring our buildings to life.
