Travel, Notice, SketchÂ
Master confident urban sketching through 7+ hours of content, built on years of teaching workshops across Europe
Nobody is born knowing how to sketch a city.
✏️ Maybe you think the people sketching cafés, streets and markets were simply born with the gift.
✏️ Maybe you imagine they sit down, flip open a sketchbook, and the whole street just appears on the page.
✏️ Or maybe you've quietly decided, "that's just not me. I'm not artistic."
Here's what I've learned in years of teaching: sketching on location is a craft, not a gift. Every loose, confident page you admire is really just someone who learned to look, then practised until their hand caught up with their eye.
As an architect, I didn't start with talent either. I started with lines, shapes, and patience. That's all this really is, and it's all completely learnable.
You don't need to be a "natural." You need a small kit, a little guidance, and the nerve to put down the first line. I'll take care of the rest, from your very first warm-up marks to a finished travel journal spread you'll actually want to show people.
Let's turn that blank page into a habit. You've got this!

Sketching on location is a skill anyone can learn!
Do you feel inspired by the energy of streets, markets and cafés?
Do you love the idea of sketching while you travel but feel unsure where to start?
Are you a beginner or a casual sketcher who wants to capture the places around you?
Travel sketching is not just for the “naturally talented” because anyone can learn it!
I designed this course for aspiring sketchers of all levels from complete beginners to those who’ve tried drawing before but want to build confidence on location.
You’ll learn the essentials of drawing from observation: how to see a scene as simple shapes, loosen up your lines, and bring your sketchbook to life with expressive studies of the places you visit.
Let’s unlock your creative potential one sketch at a time!
Hi, I am Pedro!
I am an architect and urban designer who fell for the sketchbook and never looked back. For years I've drawn Lisbon and beyond, its tiled facades, its arches, its light in ink and watercolour, small enough to carry anywhere.Â
I've taught urban sketching from Lisbon to Barcelona, Riga and Oslo, watching complete beginners go from "I can't draw" to capturing a street in twenty confident minutes. In Travel, Notice, Sketch, I've put that whole method into one course: the technique you need, without ever losing the joy of it.
Imagine the fear finally lifting...
✒️ You slip your pocket sketchbook out at a café, breathe out, and start drawing the street in front of you. No stiffness, no overthinking, just line and colour.
✒️ You stop measuring your pages against anyone else's. The wobble in your lines, the way you saw that corner, that's the good part, not the flaw.
✒️ Every page turns into a small record of a place: its light, its noise, the ordinary moment you'd otherwise have walked straight past.
How does that feel?
Today you get to say yes to the sketchbook you've always meant to keep.
In this course, we’ll explore the tools, techniques, and gentle mindset you need to start strong. You’ll learn how to loosen up, see a scene clearly, and fill your sketchbook with drawings that feel both playful and personal.
I will be sketching right alongside you, the whole way. ✒️
What you'll unlock through the course
Fill the Pages
You'll fill pages with cafés, markets, streets and viewpoints, capturing what's in front of you with ease and energy instead of freezing at the blank page.
See Like a Sketcher
Shapes, values and movement become your guide. You'll learn to read a whole scene at a glance and get it onto paper without drowning in the details.
Experiment Freely
Your sketchbook turns into a place to experiment, loosen up, and grow a way of sketching that's unmistakably your own.
Course Content
The course has 7 modules for 7+ hours of learning and practicing. You can pause and replay the videos as much as you want. The course is suitable for everyone. It would be best to take the course in order, because it will start from the basics to lessons at a more advanced level.
Practice makes perfect. So grab your sketchbook and let's get started.
In my course you will learn:
Find out more about what you'll get with the course!
My sketching course will sharpen how you see, and that changes everything. What's better than getting better at something while genuinely enjoying it? Best of all, you'll be surprised how quickly your pages start to look like something you're proud of.
Let me tell you a bit more about how I teach and how the platform works.
Every video is in full HD, and you can adjust the speed, audio and quality to suit how you like to learn.
I pack my videos with as much visual material as I can, real photos and references, so you always have something to draw from and practise with. You follow each step exactly as I make it, in real time. And under every video, and in the group, you can comment, share your pages and compare notes with other students, so any doubt gets cleared up and you'll pick up new tricks along the way.
The whole course is built to be practical above all. You'll learn the real foundations: seeing a scene as simple shapes, building confidence with your line, and getting expressive results from a simple watercolour palette. Review any lesson as many times as you like, wherever you are, whenever it suits you.
Sounds good, doesn't it?
Included in my course:
Fundamentals & Materials
We will look together at your compact travel kit, basic techniques, and the mindset needed to begin this journey. Approaching location sketching means first learning how best to use the tools at your disposal.
Practical Exercises
Theory matters, but what actually turns you into a sketcher is practice, and then a lot more practice. You'll find plenty of exercises to get you going and to pull ideas from whenever you're stuck. I'll also show you a few tricks of my own that make your lines more expressive and fill your pages with life.
Lifetime Access
Once you sign up, the course is yours for life, to watch whenever and however you like. No countdown, no pressure. That means you can take your time with the trickier ideas, going back over them until they really click. There's no deadline at all, so even five minutes of sketching a day is enough to keep moving forward. Not a bad deal, is it?
Flexibility
This is one of the real strengths of the course: you can watch the videos wherever you are, whenever it suits you, as many times as you like. It works on any device, so you can settle in at home for a long session or fit in a single lesson whenever you have a spare moment.
Community of Artists
As soon as you sign up for the course, you will join a group of people who, like you, share this passion and are following the same course as you. This means you'll be able to exchange ideas, tips or ask questions because you'll be surrounded by people who love art the same way you do!
My Dedicated Support
On this journey, you will never be alone! You can write to me and you will receive my feedback as soon as possible, so you will always feel supported. Sometimes, approaching drawing is not easy. You may feel that you are not enough, but don't worry. I will be there to help you, step by step!
