Travel Sketching in Ink & Watercolour
by Barbara Nigg
Learn how to keep a sketchbook or illustrated journal to capture your travel experiences, reflections, inspiration and location sketches. We'll look at sketching with contour, line, negative shapes, texture, pattern, lettering and depth. Keeping an illustrated journal is a creative practice just for you. Find meaning in making ink and watercolour sketches anywhere, anytime!
There is a material fee for a travel sketching kit that includes a brush, pen, pencil, watercolour paper, and sketchbook. You’ll have materials left to keep painting after the class.
Extra material costs:
CHF 25 – to be paid to the presenter on the day of the workshop.
Registration/Cancellation Deadline: March 14 2026
