A city scene may be overwhelming to sketch and perspective may not be your favorite topic. How can it be more satisfying and fun? In this class, I cover the 3 main aspects of perspective that are useful to have in mind when drawing from observation. Then I show you my 4 favorite approaches to draft and sketch architecture and cityscapes with ease and (hopefully) playfulness.

(I am not satisfied with the sound- and video quality and working on improving it.)
