Description

Observe the world with curiosity and empathy as you sketch the stories unfolding all around you. Sarah Nisbett shares her techniques for creating captivating line drawings that capture the moments and moods of everyday life.

Learn to see the people, animals, places, and objects you draw not just as strangers or inanimate objects, but as individuals with a story worth knowing or imagining. Discover how to employ techniques such as contour drawing, using line work to add texture, and adding spot color to create sketches that tell a story.

Even if you're inexperienced at drawing, you can learn to create sketches from start to finish and focus on the important details that reveal something about your subject: the gentle curve of a hand over a purse, the shy way someone tucks their feet underneath them. With practice, you'll develop your own unique style and approach to capturing the world around you.
