s on the corner of my sketchbook a quick values study that helped me to accurately get the right intensity of colours on the final sketch the light and shadow contrast is a must and in a sunny day like today depois do almoço num divertido café com amigos mais um desenho ao lado da igreja da misericórdia com uma vista fantástica para a calçada after lunch another sketch in a café with good sketching friends next to misericordia church e para acabar em beleza a usual foto de grupo depois de um lanche fantástico oferecido pela organização foi um encontro fantástico cheio de talentos e pessoas fantásticas um grande obrigado aos urban sketchers por terem dado esta oportunidade fantástica aos oeste sketchers de organizar este encontro um grande obrigado à câmara municipal de óbidos e ao staff do festival latitudes pelo apoio especialmente à carla pinho incansável durante todo o apoio que nos deu the usual group photo after a fantastic coffee break offered by the organization once again oeste sketchers delivered a fantastic sketchers meeting in one of the most iconic settings of our region sem comentários enviar a mensagem por email dê a sua opinião partilhar no x partilhar no

shadows are sharp and colors are vivid but when the night comes a different challenge begins sketching the cityscape at night is both easy and challenging the easy aspect of it is that your palette gets reduced to a couple three at most colors simplification of what you see that includes lines shapes and colors is key one dark cool color for the shadows and sky one light warm color for the illuminated parts and a third one for special details and highlights the challenge is to be precise in saving the whites in your paper with watercolor there s no going back at most you can wash off the amount of pigment in a lighted area and the light parts the glare of public lamps the shiny surfaces are scarce and vital for the success of your sketch in the night sketching workshop sketchers learn by doing a myriad of concepts and techniques that make their lives much easier while producing results that will make them proud after an evening out sketching daylight comes and out come the morning city dwellers going about their business working relaxing loitering running late it s time for a sketcher to shift focus from the city to the stories of the citizens the storymakers of a city moving people are tricky to capture but by focusing on their actions and with the help of a few techniques any sketcher can quickly lay out a crowd in a sketchbook as we warm up we also get closer to the people and want to better convey their movements their expressions their poses that s what the watercolor storytelling workshop is all about in it sketchers get a grasp on people and their day to day stories resorting to a few quick lines and a limited palette the more comfortable sketchers get with people the more they want to represent the spaces around their subjects which is the final challenge of the workshop the dual workshop night sketching and watercolor storytelling by the pedros pedro alves and pedro loureiro has toured around their home region in and around lisbon portugal and also around europe in barcelona spain and riga latvia always with the help of the amazing local urban sketchers chapters now the pedros are inviting the urban sketching global community to oslo norway for a scandinavian night sketching and storytelling experience together we ll share experiences techniques and tricks of the trade and we ll capture the late dusk of the beautiful nordic capital and the stories of its citizens in our sketchbooks participants will learn how to quickly establish a viewpoint that will make for a dynamic and focused sketch effectively balance the linework and the color phases of a sketch use a limited palette to create rich and intense night scenes and get familiar with sketching a crowd of passing people quickly and effectively incorporate a facial and bodily structure that will ease the portrayal of any person use a limited palette to create rich and intense street scenes workshop dates may 25th 2019 from 10am to 2pm and from 8pm to 12pm

the riga adventure ready set go our riga adventure begins at 16 30 on the 18th january me and my family board the airbaltic flight from lisbon to riga in latvia for a two day sketching course with pedro loureiro on an invitation by urban sketchers riga pedro l was already in town and we were on our way to meet our friends there my 6 year old daughter lia was most excited for being on a plane on her way to a land covered in snow and snow we had riga was colder than what we were used to in portugal but it was a good to endure and the white landscape with blue and violet shadows were totally worth it the canal separating old town from the most recent part was completely frozen something i ve never seen before later in the evening time to start the workshops with our usual night sketching we had to improvise a bit because the extreme cold had us doing most of the activities indoors we had an art gallery just for us with hot coffee and tea to counter the 5º outside here i was showing a bit of our work to explain that with time and practice these are the results everyone can accomplish i took a bit of my hometown torres vedras with me while explaining the importance of lighting on these situations after that everyone grabbed their coats and scarfs and went outside because it wouldn t be urban sketching if we were only sketching indoors pedro loureiro usually is the only active pedro at this stage but once again we had to improvise not enough for 30 people to watch so i had to interviene and by splitting the group in two it was much easier for everyone to get what we were teaching we were able to endure about 15 minutes in the cold sketching without gloves after that we went inside once again to restore our heat levels we presented two options afterwards complete all exercises indoors or make the main sketch in a different point of view outside i stood outdoors a while longer to assist the brave ones that chose option 2 but since water can t resist the extreme cold as well we wrapped up the workshop session inside with tea chocolate and sandwiches and lots of heaters since we had two sketches from the previous demo we improvised once more and we exchanged sketches for the color stage pedro l in the picture painted my sketch and vice versa we chose to take much more time in this part to address the beginner sketchers in the class we took a photo and used it as a reference for our work and explained the this is a common practice when dealing with extreme weather and time shortage the main constraints of a consistent dose of daily sketching soon after the session was over and everyone seemed very happy and so did we the results were fantastic and to celebrate we went for a beer in a pub nearby next morning we went to the terrace of shopping riga to a very cozy coffeeshop in a greenhouse overlooking the city this session was all about reportage sketching and how to create a story with simple sketches the focus was on the human figure and to include it in our sketches as usual in our workshops we end with a raffle where two participants can walk away with one of our sketches a huge thanks to all participants in the most international winter school ever latvian russian estonian french and even portuguese participants were present in an event i ll never forget and a huge thanks for the duo that make all this possible our gratitude to masha and agnese for the invitation and all the support we had we felt at home away from our home i m waiting to sketch with you here in portugal meanwhile we had some free time to explore the city and what it had to offer it s not a big city like other metropolis i ve been and i was glad about it since i live in a small city as well riga seemed quite familiar sometimes mainly due to the short walking distance between places to visit the park near the canal acts like a frontier between old and not so old riga and all covered in snow is truly wonderful especially for 6 year old kids dreaming on making snowmen it took a bit of courage from me to get to the top of st peters basilica and sketch fear of heights extreme cold wind all contributed to the constant fear that i could fall down in any minute still some of the best views of the city are here the contrast new old is astonishing and the sleek design bridge over a frozen daugava river fits perfectly on the landscape the livu square is one of the most iconic in this world heritage city centre by unesco the snow covered floor and rooftops turned this bit of city very appealing riga was cozy picturesque and as soon as we walked into the old quarter i felt i was truly in the presence of a multicultural european capital the riga dom city s main church was being repaired at the time but it s verticality and it s interiors were no less than impressive to end this latvian adventure the crown jewel of riga s historical centre the house of the blackheads and old guild for unmarried merchants shipowners and foreigners the original building was almost razed to the ground by the germans in wwii and was completely rebuilt in the end of 20th century to it s former glory it s a wonder and a challenge to sketch this masterpiece of baltic architecture 1 comentário enviar a mensagem por email dê a sua opinião partilhar no x partilhar no facebook partilhar no pinterest etiquetas latvia letónia riga workshops 11

oficiais e lá fomos para a zona da sé que ainda não tinha visitado desde que chegara aqui fiz um dos meus melhores registos até à data uma vista estonteante da cidade confortavelmente apoiado no muro do largo da sé symposium was over but porto still had a lot to offer to all sketchers still around so we gathered a small group of wanderers and officials and off we go to the sé area still unexplored by me at the time here i made one of my best sketches to date a stunning view to the city standing on the edge of the square todos estavam já do lado de lá da ponte e eu pertencia ao grupo dos atrasados ainda assim tentei a proeza da semana desenhar do cimo da ponte proeza que se revelou uma frustração porque tenho um pavor pavor mesmo de alturas não consegui fazer o desenho que se pedia daquele local porque o medo se apoderou de mim e sentia que a qualquer momento ia cair ao rio everyone was already on the other side of the river and i had to catch up still i ve tried the feat of the week a sketch from the top of the bridge but my terrifying fear of heights prevented me from doing so as i was constantly feeling that i was about to fall down on the river depois de um almoço diga se francesinha tinto com montes de sketchers fomos fazer um desenho rápido desde o mosteiro da serra do pilar para uma vista fantástica sobre o porto after lunch francesinha red wine with lot s of sketchers time for a quick sketch from the monastery at serra do pilar to a fantastic view of the city e num instante era altura de rumar de volta a torres vedras esperei aqui com os meus amigos e família que uma procissão acabasse de passar na marginal de gaia enquanto bebíamos os últimos finos para relaxar um último desenho da icónica ponte que só faz sentido neste local mágico foi um simpósio fantástico o meu primeiro e logo como instrutor à distância que escrevo este post fui vendo e lendo as opiniões dos meus alunos sobre as minhas aulas e o balanço não podia ser melhor super
