Celebrating the mundane as well as the famous is what urban sketching is all about. See more of her sketches on her blog , on Flickr and on Instagram. I sketch, I write, sometimes do things and go places and my name is Pete.

I tend to erase people and cars from my cities, but I'm starting to get over this. I use micron and copic pens, with watercolour.

My sketch kit consists of Extra Fine Sharpies the fact that they bleed into the paper as soon as they touch it works really well for me—it forces me to work super-quick , a small set of Prismacolor pencils and a little watercolor travel set". I moved to Kassel Germany in to accomplish a master degree. Although I have always drawn and paint, it was not until I started studying in the Uni-Kassel, that I started keeping a travel sketchbook.

I had a teacher there who used to do a lot of sketches when he travelled on university excursions. When he retired, I helped to organize an exhibition of his sketches. He brought a huge box full of sketchbooks he had filled since he was an architecture student. I spent a whole day selecting the most interesting drawings. It was a wonderful experience that opened my eyes to a new world. In the last 10 years I have the feeling of being in a long journey.

I like to discover the cities where I live, to understand why a place is the way it is and what makes it different and unique from others.

Drawing is for me a way to learn to love a place, to become part of it. I like to draw architecture but I am more attracted to urban scenery, portraying how people live in the city.

I always carry a small watercolor travel set from Windsor and Newton and my sketchbook in my bag. I always thought that drawing was a solitary experience until I found Urban Sketchers. It was amazing to find so many people doing the same thing.

It is a great place to share! I tried to capture what we do not see, which disappears too quickly. What is hidden, that is not visible at first glance. It is not the picturesque that interests me, but the story that we feel when we go through a place. This is what I want to capture, impressions and sensations. Sketching enables me to see my own world, one drawing at a time.

In the last four years, it is not an exaggeration to say that Urban Sketchers has changed my life. I have met and sketched with many wonderful people around the globe, either at symposiums or during other travel, because the USk network brought us together. I sketch almost weekly with my local group, sharing sketches, art supplies and friendship.

Nature / Sculpture: VII sketching workshop in Tuscany - Sept. 1/5

Although I have always drawn and paint, it was not until I started studying in the Uni-Kassel, that I started keeping a travel sketchbook.

Once again our next Volterra workshop will focus on landscape highlighting the relationship between art and nature.

Classic Tuscan panoramas that have inspired artists over the centuries and modern artists whose designs are strongly connected with the environment: And once again the goal of these four days is to improve our observational understanding. With Simo and Caroline we shall explore how to go about transforming and framing our interaction with the environment. Participants will experience two different approaches to drawing and painting plein-air: The workshop opens with a watercolor demo in the Villa's garden by the talented artist Majid Modir.

The following three days will be lead by Caroline Peyron and Simo Capecchi in two small groups. Staccioli's sculptures created a dialogue with the entire region and are now landmarks of Volterra, where people would stop to shoot photos and take "creative" selfies. Circles, triangles and other shapes invite us to move around them, looking for the best view that combines sculpture with landscape or wondering how the artist is asking us to see that view.

The way people move around them and the way the changing shadows of those huge sculptures can be an inspiration for different page compositions and sequences of drawings. Besides being the beating heart for a family of dramaturges, curators and artists that have held open house since the Eighties for "scientists, creative and visionary people", Villa Le Guadalupe - our workshop location - has great views over the landscape which are captured in its frescoes: Niki de Saint Phalle's garden is a feast of sinuous shapes with mixed materials of multiple colors.

Her sculptures do not frame or set against nature but on the contrary they seem to grow spontaneously, like flowers and trees and we can experience them from the inside.
