I loved the woman's idea at the end about the art with put in different physical locations but virtual.. that would be a fun way to explore cities and areas by searching for virtual art

Could that be done by dropping pictures onto google maps? A "Sketchview" equivlent to StreetView would be great.

Wow! My husband and I were in Penang about 10 years ago and saw these amazing sketches and brought them home with us and hung them in our house. Then I'm randomly watching this art supply video and there is the artist mentioned and I learn that these incredible drawings were done with twigs! The signature on the pieces is not clear and I couldn't remember the artist's name, so I'm very glad to know about ch'ng kiah kiean now.

Hi Todd - Thanks. Funny you suggested making more of these videos. I'll be delivering an updated version of this presentation at the Urban Sketchers Chicago Symposium next week. I believe it will be posted and available to everyone.

Having a background in interior design manual drafting has offered me a unique twist on a couple of water color painting tricks. Blue painters' tape is not as low tack as drafting tape. Looks like masking tape but is designed to avoid tearing paper. Look in the drafting section. If you are using Arches paper clear packaging tape can be removed without damaging the paper (because it is heavily sized.) if you don't use Arches you can do the same thing with clear contact paper. Either can be used as a mask too Nobody but my water color students has s cheap plastic T-square on their supply list but it is by far the easiest tool to draw the extents of the drawing and makes perspective vertical & horizontal lines fast & easy. For urban sketching I carry a triangle as a substitute, but think somewhere someone has created (or should create ) a 6" T square with the 90 degree top that turns parallel to the handle to be compact, but can be popped back into place. Probably in light weight metal.

I have had a vest like that originally called a 'Photojournalists Vest', made by Banana Republic. Yes, 40 years ago it was heavy, heavier loaded with extra lenses (Leica) & film etc. I still use it, but a an art/sketch carrying 'vehicle'. The video is great, thanks.

Ages ago I used to watch Alwyn Crawshaw on public television and his weskit (vest) was a near constant companion. The good lady would probably protest if I took to wearing one often.

Mark, Alex here, the inventor of the Kuretake Waterbrush Modification. I've posted the how-to video (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/laxmm86ivKmygHk.html) for those interested in making it themselves. I'm still using it in my daily sketching btw :)

I like the idea of the vest, but I'm in the south and it's too hot. I repurposed an apron with pockets to hold supplies, my purse holds sketch book and my water and my stool has a carrying strap. I must look like a lost gardener wearing a large floppy hat and floral apron walking down the street! lol

Wow - what a goldmine of ideas! Thank you very much for posting this. I'll just second your recommendation about Darsie Beck's art bag - it works beautifully.

Some super ideas and the ending I hadn't expected, so 4 years later have you gone further into 3D art?

Very interesting to go for the simple solution to be able to move and sketch - For many years I loved the cotton fishermans vest with a lot of pockets and I loved it but then they stopped making them in cotton and changed to much stiffer artificial mTeriL ( not Pleasanton to wear - often I just choose very few items ) and Thank you for the idea with the magnet thing that I will try to find and test - and the waterboard seemed very interesting

Mark, this was a fabulous video! I have been on the search for many of these DIY ways to make the urban sketching experience a bit lighter! I use the sock or wrist band each day! Thank you for sharing this with us...Hope to see more like this from you!

Learning to draw...get a carpenters sliding bevel...models that can sit flat on paper...sight size your pics to fit in your journal with correct perspective angles and graduate the slide for measuring...drawing platform__photo tripod +screw on clipboard for drawing. Add attachments for paints etc. Wear one of those jackets as well.
