Testimonials: Rodrigo Santos (Brazil)

"I'm a 27 years old Brazilian and I've always liked drawing, but never had the chance to study it (nor did I have the dedication to study it alone). Last year, I accidentally found The Art of Urban Sketching and bought it, and since then my life has changed considerably. Not only am I practicing it much more, but also the way I see the world, my perception of things has got better. Much more than just a hobby, I think nowadays drawing/sketching is a philosophy to me, as it used to be when I was 12, 13 years old."

"I made these sketches on a trip to Cabo Frio (a small city in Rio de Janeiro state, famous for its beaches). Both of them were made in a pocket inexpensive sketchbook, using Faber-Castell coloured pencils and Mitsubishi Uni Pin pens (0.05 and 0.2)."
