Katrin Merle

Berlin-based illustrator Katrin Merle discovered urban sketching 12 years ago and has been exploring cities, including her home city, with her sketchbook ever since. “Unlike photography, sketching on location intensifies your perception of details and moods and anchors them in your memories. Urban sketching is about experiencing a place with all your senses”. Merle also offers drawing courses and workshops on the subject.

Max. 15 participants. Registration on site at WELTSTUDIO.
