Urban Sketching
Lisbon is a city that almost demands to be drawn.
The crooked streets, worn façades, unexpected patches of colour, balconies overflowing with plants, and the light changing across the buildings, every corner has its own character.
Through sketching, I've found my own way of paying attention to this city. And over 100 people have already joined me in slowing down, opening their sketchbooks, and seeing Lisbon from a different perspective.
Together, we'll explore the city, experiment, and make art along the way, not to create a perfect drawing, but to discover your own way of seeing.
