urban sketching

Urban sketching is the practice of creating detailed drawings of city scenes, buildings, and everyday life in public places. Artists intentionally sketch on-location to capture the atmosphere, architecture, and moment directly from their surroundings. It emphasizes observation, spontaneity, and capturing the essence of urban environments. This art form fosters a deeper connection between the artist and the city, often resulting in vibrant, personal interpretations of urban life. Urban sketching is appreciated both as a creative expression and a way to document the changing aspects of cityscape over time.
