Expressive Architecture in Pen & Ink

Expressive Architecture in Pen & Ink

Learn how to capture your favorite architectural subjects in traditional pen and ink from rough sketches to finished drawings. Start with exercises to develop skills. Learn hatching techniques to create depth and texture. Experiment with different pen strokes, and incorporate ink washes to depict areas of shadow. We’ll create dynamic sketches then advance to more refined drawings. Once learned, these techniques can be applied to any subject.
