Looking for cool Sydney activities? Come and join Elinor Pickard in Rozelle for this fun urban sketching class and bring the streets to life on your canvas!
This casual class is great for both the experienced urban sketcher and the absolute beginner. You'll receive guidance and support from your artist tutor and spend a relaxing afternoon sketching the streets around Rozelle with a small, informal group.
Capture local street scenes, buildings, green spaces, and skylines. You will learn how to observe, compose, simplify a complex scene, create a strong focus – and capture the mood.
At the end of your class, you'll return home with some cool sketches as well as the skills and confidence to continue drawing at home.
Note:
  • Please refer to the 'What to bring' section for a full list of materials needed for the workshop.
  • The class will go ahead in most weathers, with undercover/indoor destinations used if it rains. We will only cancel if the weather is particularly inclement.
