Urban Sketching Chateau De Chambord| Dip Pen Ink & Watercolor Painting of French Castle

Today I’m sharing an ink and watercolor painting of Château de Chambord, one of the most iconic castles in the Loire Valley, France. Instead of drawing the entire château, I focused on the top of the architecture , the towers, chimneys, and spires that make Chambord so unique. The overlapping shapes and dimensions are so fun and challenging to sketch! If you love ink and watercolor sketching, architectural drawing, or are looking for French castle painting inspiration, this video is for you.
