Description

A guide that shows painters, drawers, doodlers, and urban sketchers how to bring their drawings to life with colourful, bold, yet accessible painting methods.

Urban Watercolor Sketching provides a fresh and simple approach to adding energy to sketches of urban scenes using watercolour painting. Whether you're an amateur artist, drawer, doodler, or sketcher, watercolour is a versatile sketching medium that's perfect for people on the go—much like pen or pencil.

Accomplished designer and illustrator Felix Scheinberger offers a solid foundation in colour theory and countless lessons on all aspects of watercolour sketching, including:

Fundamentals like wet-on-wet, glazes, and washes
Materials and supplies to bring on your travels
Little-known tips and tricks, such as painting when water isn't handy and seeking out inspiration

Vibrant watercolour paintings grace each page, and light-hearted anecdotes (why do fish make great subjects to paint, you may be wondering...) make this a lively guide to the medium. With an open mind and sketchbook, you will be ready to capture the moments around you in luminous colour with confidence, creativity, and ease—no matter what your skill level may be.
