Meet Peter Richards, one of our instructors at the Urban Sketchers Symposium in Toulouse, France, on July 15-18, 2026! #USkToulouse2026
Demo/Activity DEM31
Ways of seeing while moving through place
(the hardest part of doing a sketch is choosing the view)
The demo is a walk through an urban space showing how I see and record its characteristics and qualities of the streets, squares, urban elements and activities. As we walk and pause, we will prepare small and fast A7 coloured pencil sketches that represent our individual impressions of the place.
The Urban Sketchers Symposium is in Toulouse, France, on July 15-18, 2026.
The Urban Sketchers International Symposium is an annual educational event organized by Urban Sketchers (USk), a nonprofit dedicated to fostering the practice of on-location observational sketching. urbansketchers.org
It brings together sketchers of all levels for four days of valuable field-sketching instruction, inspiration, and opportunities for participants to meet new friends.
