PAINT FIRST, DRAW LATER. Quick Watercolor Urban Sketching for Daily Practice

Practicing daily is the fastest way to improve your art. In this video, I show you how to sketch a simple scene in 30 minutes, using a ink and wash technique.
I am a regular urban sketcher, actively involved with Urbansketchers Mumbai chapter. I often use this technique when I am sketching outdoors with limited time available. It relies heavily upon identifying big shapes and building values.
