Sketching in Italy using watercolor, Copic Markers, and/or colored pencils is the way I like to work. I also teach the use of brown ink or Sepia ink because the warm line fits very well with the tile roof tops, brick buildings and stone walkways of Italy.

We'll eat Italian food by our local cooks and learn through sketching how to see and understand this remarkable place.
