  • Etchr Studio class recordings

    Since 2022, I’ve become a Resident Artist at Etchr Studio. That means regular comebacks to lives and quick sketching workshops. You can find my recordings of mini workshops and masterclasses by clicking below. Subjects range from an Intro Series to Sketching, to drawing and painting people in motion. Benefit by being an Etchr Studio subscriber.

  • Introduction to Sketching

    Learn how to draw. This 6-part workshop series will take you from total beginner to feeling comfortable drawing the world around you. Designed and taught by professional artist Pedro Loureiro.

  • Putting It All Together: The Road to Urban Sketching

    Reinforce the realization that sketching is seeing in a novel way in this in-depth 3 hour Master Class Recording. Cityscapes, landscapes, objects and figures, all may be sketched seamlessly in our sketchbooks, provided we look at reality with focus and attention.

  • Painting a Coastal Scene with Ink and Watercolour

    Learn to paint a complex coastal scene with focus and depth with Etchr’s Resident Artist, Pedro Loureiro. You will learn how to use watercolour in two moments: general atmospheric washes and saturated strokes for extra focus. By the end of this class, you'll be able to balance the use of both ink and watercolour, separately or overlapping, based on the story you decide to tell with your sketch.

  • Monumental Urban Sketching

    Learn to paint a towering building with Etchr’s Resident Artist, Pedro Loureiro. He’ll show you how to use three-point perspective to create the impressive scale appropriate for a monument. You’ll learn to add distortion to boost the sensation of size.

  • Making It Work – Urban Sketching World Tour

    Making It Work – Urban Sketching World Tour

    Learn how to create a sketchbook spread that celebrates a place from your life; your hometown, a favorite vacation spot, the restaurant where you got engaged. You’ll learn to put these places on paper for a keepsake far more personal than the pictures on your phone.

  • Humans in Action: Figures and Gestures in Ink and Watercolour

    Learn how to draw faces and figures with ink lines and watercolor washes. In a chaotic market scene, focus on expression and perspective for human figures to show movement and value with Pedro’s techniques.

  • Urban Sketching - Painting Crowds with Ink and Watercolour

    Capture the hustle and bustle of the urban jungle by people sketching a whole crowd in this recorded Mini Workshop. Go from vizualising head and body postures to sketching the people around you. Take on the extra challenge and illustrate a close up scene of people in their environment, pointing out what's essential and what can be left out of your sketched story.

  • Urban Sketching: Exploring Street Views in Watercolour

    Urban sketcher Pedro Loureiro shows how to sketch on location anywhere in the world using Google Street View. Learn composition, framing, and perspective tools to paint a scenic city view that includes people to anchor the sketch.

  • Light and Shadows: Urban Sketching in Watercolour

    Learn how to focus on composition, light and shadows, and the storytelling aspect of urban sketching. This Class Recording is for beginner to intermediate artists; who want to learn watercolor techniques on how to simplify sketching people and urban details.
