Solid, practical advise and a diverse pool of instruction and inspiration. Loose, relaxed sketching ftw. Because of you I finally said screw it and started scribbling on a post it at work. Cheers and thanks!

That anxiety is the biggest barrier to becoming the artist you want to be. I don't know what it is with art that we think we should just be able to do it without the thousands of hours of work that is actually required, but so many of us battle with it. I think, when we're kids, we all draw at the same level so it's fun and we can show our drawings to each other and we're super supportive. But at some point, our friend keeps drawing but we do other things. When we come back to drawing, our friend's level has increased where ours hasn't and we're ashamed or our work. We lose sight of the fact that our friend has put in the hours and we haven't and then it's no longer fun for us. For me, I just decided that my sketchbook is a private space, no one needs to see it and that I will just draw and try to recapture that joy of drawing. I approach each sketch as an experiment now, and just draw for the fun of it, in the knowledge that each drawing is teaching me something and that the more I do, the better I will get. Drawing is for you. Have fun with it.

Thing is you do have talent. You were belittled because you didn't fit into the teachers idea of 'normal'. It is clear the teacher had inner demons they were dealing with and shared them with you. You have talent, use it, enjoy it and don't ever let someone steal your joy.

I’ve struggled for years to understand watercolor. It’s a mystery to me how to finish a piece that seems unfit for the eye. Ugly for short. You’ve helped me understand what I’m supposed to be accomplishing with color. I can draw but the second color hits the page I’ve ruined a nice piece. The simplicity of each step relaxed my overwhelming fear of making a mistake. I’m grateful I found your calm touch and unraveled a piece of this mysterious art. I love watercolor, but I go about painting like it was a chess game. Thank you. I’m going to look for more of your teachings.

They make those books 270 etc, because it’s a sketchbook and you may want to actually sketch something then pop some WC in. That means you’ll likely be using a pencil, pens, or watercolor pencils / pastels / colored pencils, etc. You may not want the paper to “eat” the tips of your sketching tools. So, the paper is somewhat smoother. Imho, 300 + is made with a view to brushes; painting … not so much doodling and the likes. Btw, this is the first sketch I did along with you after I found your channel. It is also the very first sketch in my first WC sketchbook. I was that pumped after watching & listening to your instructions. Just do it , have fun … and it came out great 😊 I have been a subscriber ever since. Thank you, Sir.

Thanks for the introduction to watercolour sketching. I haven‘t sketched or painted for over 40 years but it was something I loved as a student. Your approach inspires confidence to just have a go with minimal financial outlay. I was really pleased to see you working from a photo, my initial approach has been to take multiple photos of my subject, digital photography makes this really easy. I can then put the image on my ipad or laptop and sketch it from there. With experience I may be less self conscious about street sketching 😅. Thanks again and good luck to all those equally inspired. ❤

About " muddy colors" - i usually add lighter colors or white to whatever I am mixing. water color is so forgiving since it can be washed / shaped in many ways . like he mentions just stay loose- or play with mixing and you will find the way that you like. also keep a journal what have you mixed - hope it helps.

This is an amazing video! I’m going to try this. I’ve never seen a video showing how to do this type of painting as well as you have. Makes me feel like I can try this without having to be perfect. Thank you!

I found your channel today and loved it. Please do more beginner water color. I can’t draw. You know the difference between a boy or a girl by her triangle skirt. But I follow along with you and it looked like a village business in an earthquake. However for the first time in 60 years I think I can do it or at least improve on my drawing/water color. Thank you ever so much

I'm so excited to find your channel!! I tried urban sketching a few years ago, with very little prior art experience, and just couldn't ever get the hang of it. I never knew where or how to begin, my proportions were always off. So I just gave up. You're inspiring me to give it another try!😍💖
