Rotterdam Delfshaven

About this tour

• Suitable for every drawing level.
• Guidance in Dutch and English.
• We draw simple and fast.
• We walk about 2.5 kilometers through Historic Delfshaven.
• We start with a Polaroid of yours and place it in the middle of a sheet of A4 size paper.
• Around the polaroid we draw typical items from Historical Delfshaven, such as the Pilgrim Fathers Church, sailing heritage, a windmill, bicycles and decorative elements from the city and nature.
• I give a demo "Handlettering" (writing in a nice way).

• You can save the postcard, post it in the mailbox and / or post it on social media.

I love Rotterdam! I studied graphic design in Rotterdam and drawing at the art academy in Antwerp. I am the City sketcher of Rotterdam and have been illustrating for more than 10 years.

Nice to discover some other places and think about it! Because of the template with the drawing, the design of everyone was comparable, but you could compare it with others. Nice experience to share and see what you notice and what someone else notices.

Very nice outing to do! The walk was accompanied by interesting background stories, tasty Dutch cookies, coffee and tea and is definitely worth it! I will gladly join again!
