Pen and Wash, Urban Sketch style watercolor demonstration. National Pantheon, Lisbon. Peter Sheeler

This tutorial demonstrates how I imply details without actually drawing an exact reproduction. I use simple bumps and squiggles to represent the ornate features of spires and stone carvings.

MUSIC: A new Journey, And a flower bloomed, Just another dusk,
by Antonio Romo. http://www.antonioromo.com/

MATERIALS:

PEN: A Pigma Micron pen, 02 nib.

PAPER: Size- 5"x7"
Arches 140lb Hot Press Paper for this Video.

My papers of choice include Arches 140lb Hot press and Cold press paper and Strathmore 500 series Sketchbooks. All are 100% cotton rag.
For beginners, I recommend starting with a high quality paper and experimenting with different types. As your style develops, you'll get a feel for which type is best. Waiting to switch to a better quality paper later will be much like learning to paint all over again.

PAINT: Winsor Newton- Yellow Ochre, Burnt Sienna
Da Vinci- Phthalo Blue

BRUSH: A Polar Flo 1/2 inch flat brush is my current favorite. The bristle were originally white but have become stained.
I often use inexpensive brushes because several of my techniques are quite abusive.
Whenever the brush disappears from the screen it is either being wiped off or rinsed.
