Course Information

This course covers the crucial knowledge for successful environment sketching. Each day of the course will be dedicated to the practice of one of the four major aspects of theory:

1. Linear and atmospheric perspective

2. Lighting and composition

3. Textures and rendering

4. Colour



On day two, students will be shown tools for developing the composition of their images, critical for effective storytelling. They will also be taught about highlighting the main subject of their image and about how to generate a focal point. At this stage Magdalena will also cover several lighting scenarios and analyse their different visual effects.


Next, the course will examine basic features of various materials and textures, both for urban and rural scenes. In understanding the various factors that influence the look of specific materials the artist is more equipped to accurately depict any subject, which gives them options for more powerful storytelling.


On the final day, the course focuses on colour theory, colour harmonies, contrasts and accents. It address subjects like broken colour, sky gradation and the colour schemes associated with different times of the day and seasons ofthe year. Magdalena will also address the issue of colour in light and shadow and the effect of coloured light sources on their surroundings.


the end result


During the course students will produce plein-air and still life sketches as practice of perspective and tonal accuracy, which they will further work on to consider composition and storytelling. They will also produce colour sketches based on these initial sketches, augmented by the lessons of texture, rendering and colour.
