🎨 OM KURSET (holdes på engelsk):
🇮🇹 The traditional Grand Tour was a cultural journey across Europe in which travelers studied classical antiquity, art, and languages and often purchased artworks as souvenirs of their voyage. Venetian painters like Canaletto and Guardi specialized in creating vedute (view paintings) and capricci (imaginary scenes), providing tourists with realistic, collectible mementos of their travels.
🖊️ This drawing course is our Grand Tour — a creative journey through cityscapes sketching. Using photos as inspiration, we’ll explore the techniques used by these artists to create our own “vedute” and “capricci” in postcard format, combining the structured precision of graphite pencils, ink pen with the warmth of sepia washes to capture a classical aesthetic.
📍 Open to all experience levels, the course focuses on training your eye to see like an artist. Emphasis is on observation, perspective, composition, and the effective blend of graphite detail with sepia washes.
During this 10 sessions course, students have the opportunity of creating multiple drawings by exploring different shading techniques.
