Let’s Sketch!

Choose an Artist Style

 

Sunday, February 7

12 PM - 3 PM CST

Hosted by Gail Dokucu, Carla Milano Nelson and Urban Sketchers Chicago

Details:

Have you ever wanted to experiment with sketching, using a style of one of the masters? Well, now you have an opportunity!

• Choose your subject to sketch.

• Select a style you like or are curious about and incorporate it into your sketch. 

Do you like Impressionism? Abstract art? Modernism? Now’s your chance to play around with a style you normally wouldn’t use. 

For some ideas of different styles to choose from, check out:

These articles show different painting styles. However, you don’t have to use paint for your drawing. Use your favorite media and have some fun experimenting.

See you at our virtual throwdown! Be sure to explain the style you chose in your post.
