5-Minute Sketching: Architecture: Super-quick techniques for amazing drawings Paperback – 14 April 2021

This book is very good. I am intermediate standard and often find books too basic. It is not all about perspective and perfect architecture. It focuses on speed. I don't think you have to literally take just 5 minutes, but it is all about quick sketching. For example the section on materials is about what to use for speed and how to use it. The middle section on specific elements of urban sketching, such as doors or modern buildings is very good. Many of the tips would equally apply to other sketching. On the strength of the teaching in this book I have enrolled for one of her online courses!

Perfect for a beginner wanting to sketch buildings, with a nice description of the architectural styles. Good value too.

An interesting and helpful book for wannabe artist like me 😀

I love thus book. It's full of good ideas, nice examples and having read it through, I often return to it.

A wonderful book describing architecture from different time periods, how to approach sketching them and what details to keep or not. I haven't finished the book yet but I've been drawing some of the illustrations in order to get the feel of what is being taught. I shall carry on to the end, learning new tricks and trying different ideas. My only suggestion would be that it's very small format and would be better in A4 format or larger. Having said that, the price makes it more affordable to those of us with limited funds.

By page eight I could not resist, so I grabbed a ball point pen & started sketching, the book inspires you to do that. Most other books bore or scare you in their first few pages with what equipment you need and the vast number of mediums out there to buy.

Just the inspiration I needed. Nothing more. No waffle, just common sense hints.

Very informative

very poor book

Väldigt intressant bok. Många bra tips.

Me interesa el boceto urbano y buscaba una guía para dibujar arquitectura urbana. Da muchos tips bastante buenos a la hora de dibujar, así como distintas técnicas y materiales que usar en tus sketches. Lo recomiendo para tener unas bases.

Demorou mais chegou. Ótimo livro.

Ce livre permet de comprendre les points essentiels à mettre en avant pour personnaliser ses dessins d'architecture, afin de leur donner très vite une allure plutôt artistique que banale. De nombreux dessins souvent avec aquarelle, de différents artistes, déjà pour le plaisir des yeux.
