Workshop One - Beyond Just Shapes

Simplicity and shapes are fantastic concepts to get started in sketching. But in this workshop, we'll move beyond these beginner's concepts to start you on the journey of developing your style.

We'll warm up first with thumbnail sketching, breaking down a scene in multiple different ways. Before looking at how shapes can be powerful, but limiting, with lots of examples and ideas for you to work on.

I'll show you how I think about the differences between shapes, contours and lines. And before you know it, you'll be tackling two complex scenes with a new found confidence.

These ideas underpin the entire of my sketching style. And this is a fresh new take on how to approach them.
