Road to Riga

Today, I’m flying off to the north of Europe. The final destination is Riga, in Latvia, where I’ll lead two sketching workshops with fellow sketcher Pedro Alves, in the Urban Sketching Winter School Riga 2019. But the journey starts further north, in Helsinki and Tallinn.

To get familiar with the northern palette, I’ve tested this night view of Riga’s cathedral. You might not believe it but it was sketched live and on location… well… sort of. This live webcam might had something to do with it. Still counts as urban sketching, right?
