 Draw and Paint Stunning Panoramas and Vistas in Your Sketchbook


The Urban Sketching Handbook Panoramas and Vertical Vistas

Techniques for Drawing on Location from Unexpected Perspectives


Panoramas and vertical vistas are stunning whether on canvas or in a sketchbook. Urban sketchers include these in their sketchbooks to capture the vastness or height of city or country scenes, using both pages of a spread or accordion books that can go on forever!

This installment is another great one for the Urban Sketching Handbook series. You won't find any step-by-step instructions but the author and other contributors give many tips and techniques to paint or draw a successful panorama or vista. All the drawings and paintings, which form the bulk of this book, are great for ideas and inspiration.

As always, it was great to see so many contributors from all over the world -many whose names you will recognize if you are into urban sketching. 

All in all, a must-have especially if you already have the other volumes in the series.

4 stars
