Drawing the world around you, one sketch at a time. Urban landscapes, architecture, people, and everyday scenes. Pen, pencil, watercolor, whatever you carry!

Warning to others: I tried a shortcut and it did NOT end well. Follow the instructions exactly.

Been doing this for years. Can confirm it is worth the effort.

Bob Nakamura   Perspective tips for buildings Mar 16, 2026 12:23 pm
One-point and two-point perspective. Find the vanishing points, sketch light guidelines, then add details. Makes buildings look right.

Can you explain more about this? I am a newbie and want to understand better.

Everyone feels self-conscious at first. Start in quiet parks. Nobody cares as much as you think. Just draw!
