Las Vegas also known as Sin City, and the Gambling Capital of the World, is an absolutely unique place. It is among the most visited places on earth, and has an architectural style all it’s own. It is an American creation and the architecture is one of the truly American styles.
The Las Vegas style has been imitated but the original resides here in the US. It’s not a place that instantly comes to mind when you consider sketching the urban environment, but, why not? Last week we loved the wonderful architecture of Providence, RI, but the styles were, for the most part, an imitation of European design. Not Las Vegas. Love it or not - it’s us, and there’s a lot we can express with our drawings.
Feel free to use any source you like. The morning will focus on the outside - the buildings themselves and the afternoon will focus on interiors. Although we’re working from photographs you should challenge yourself to do more that just be a copiest. Add your creativity, change things, create pictures that are uniquely your own.
The event starts on Saturday June 20th at 10 AM EDT promptly. The afternoon session begins at 1 PM. You are invited to enjoy both. Registration ends at noon on Friday.
