I wanted the drawing to be about the bike but use the architecture of the environment to help frame the scene and our focus.
Pentel Brush Pen – Permanent black brush pen.Faber Castell PITT Artist Pen – Black permanent fibre tip pen.A4 (UK size approx 29 x 21cm) I use a smooth Bristol board about 220gsm weight.That way, it’s easier for you to be able to jump your eye between the reference image and your drawing.

Pro tip: I draw a light pencil rectangular guide of 6 x 4 inch on my drawing paper and positioned the reference image at the same height. In the demo, the sketch is 6 x 4 inches (15 x 10cm)

You can also download a High-Resolution Image here. The photo below can be ‘right clicked’ and ‘Save image as’, so you can use it as a reference image, print it out and follow along with the video above. I also wanted to illustrate how important the shapes around the main subject can be, so in this example, I’ve left the drawing of the main focus of the bike until last and drawn everything around it first. When sketching buildings I often work from the larger abstract shapes to the smaller detailed shapes, for this demo, the method is the same. One of the first things to consider is the layout of the page – portrait or landscape.įor this sketch, from a side street in Florence, I wanted to use the environment to help set a context for the bike, so I went for a portrait composition.
