In this class we will be Drawing Building Portraits. This will include:

- Architecturally-styled linework
- How to draw in perspective
- Multiplying and dividing volumes equally in perspective
- Colouring using gradients

Draw along with me as I share the techniques and tips I have used over the past 11 years producing architectural illustrations.

​
I will be drawing digitally - in Photoshop using a Graphics Tablet - but you can be drawing in any app on any device or even just good old-fashioned pen and paper!


A little bit about me...

I’m Philip Buckingham and I am an architecturally trained illustrator with over 11 years industry experience.

I started the Draw Like An Architect project to offer the teaching I wish I had had during my architectural education. Freehand drawing is an invaluable skill whether you are presenting to a client, communicating to your colleague or trying to impress your tutor. However, it is overlooked at most architecture schools.

Based in London, I am a founding Director of 5HT, a multidisciplinary design agency. I am a member of the Society of Architectural Illustration and my work has been exhibited internationally with work featured in The Architectural Review, Architecture Today and the RIBA Journal.
