Learn urban sketching step by step with X hours of content and 20 practical video lessons.
“Great urban artists are born, not made.” That’s a myth.
Maybe you think people who draw buildings and city scenes are just naturally talented.
Maybe you believe they can sketch architecture effortlessly.
Maybe you’ve told yourself, “I’m just not good at drawing.”
But here’s the truth: learning to draw architecture is a skill you can build.
The drawings you admire come from practice, clear techniques, and learning how to truly observe structure, light, and detail.
You don’t need to be a “natural” to start. You just need simple methods, consistent practice, and the confidence to begin.
In this course, I’ll guide you step by step, from your first structured lines to creating complete urban illustrations.
Your sketching journey starts here.
Architectural sketching is a skill anyone can learn!
Do you feel inspired by New York’s buildings, streets, and urban details?
Do you love the idea of sketching the city around you but feel unsure where to start?
Are you a beginner or a casual doodler who wants to draw with more structure
and confidence?
Drawing architecture isn’t just for “naturally talented” artists, it’s a learnable skill.
Fine Lines. Drawing New York. Detail, Flow & Focus was created for aspiring urban sketchers of all levels, from complete beginners to those who’ve drawn before and want to refine their technique.
You’ll learn the core fundamentals of observational drawing: how to simplify complex buildings, build depth with line and value, and create detailed urban illustrations with clarity and confidence.
Let’s bring New York to life in your sketchbook, one line at a time.
My name is Vi
I’m an artist based in Brooklyn, New York. I work primarily in pen and ink to create line, detail, and architectural form. My drawings are shaped by the structure, rhythm, and quiet complexity of the city, especially the small details that often go unnoticed.
Over the years, people have asked about my tools, my process, and how I achieve such precise detail using line alone. I created this course to answer those questions clearly and practically, and to share the techniques, workflows, and way of seeing that I use in my own architectural drawings.
This course is a distillation of my process: observing carefully, working slowly, and building drawings one line at a time. I hope the techniques and skills you learn helps inspire you to pick up the pen daily and love drawing as much as I do.
Imagine drawing the
city with confidence…
You open your sketchbook and start capturing New York’s streets and buildings with calm and focus.
You stop comparing your drawings to others and begin enjoying your own style and progress.
Each page becomes a clear, detailed snapshot of the city, full of structure, flow, and character.
How does that feel?
Today, you can choose to finally build the sketchbook you’ve always wanted.
Urban sketching trains your eye, sharpens your focus, and helps you connect deeply with the world around you.
In this course, you’ll learn the tools, techniques, and structured approach behind confident line drawing. You’ll slow down, observe architecture with intention, and create detailed sketches that feel natural and expressive.
I’ll guide you through every step of the process. ✨
