Architectural Sketching with T. Mark Cole

Class | Available

This class introduces the fundamentals of architectural sketching, with a focus on spatial composition and perspective. Students will learn how to observe their surroundings, simplify complex forms, and develop confidence in sketching structures and environments.

While the course centers on architectural subjects, the skills learned apply broadly to many artistic disciplines. Emphasis will be placed on seeing, understanding perspective, and sketching comfortably without overthinking the process.

Classes will take place both in the studio and outdoors in the field, weather permitting.

  • Some classes will take place on location. Students will be responsible for getting to the meeting spots, which will be shared ahead of time. All locations will be within the borough to keep them easily walkable.
