Sasha will expertly guide you through the complex and never-ending theories of subject, medium, compositional tensions, volume creations, light, shadow, viscosities, translucencies, opacities, applications, mark making, tools and colour. We will cover these academic skill sets within your bespoke program.
01
URBAN SKETCHING
​
We begin our voyage in the studio learning an ‘in-house’ developed technique combining fountain pen and brushwork with water. It’s a perfect way to always have your tools with you when you are going about your daily life. After practicing the technique in the studio, we head for our chosen landmarks following a casual yet insightful tour of the city via trams or on foot. We stop in well-appointed spots, reach for our sketchbooks and capture elements of our selected sites with newly developed skills .
No better souvenir than your individual interpretation of subject!
