"The size of the page has something to teach us." Wow, I loved the section on using a larger sketchbook. Thanks for this video!!

This quote stood out to me too. I think this is something I have learned the past year of sketching. Teoh has made videos about this, and people at my local urban sketchers chapter definitely talk about sketchbook size and how it affects your sketches. It’s so interesting.

This looks so fun! I'm not an urban sketcher at all, but it does make you want to go to such a symposium and just try :)

@lesliethompson4588 Жыл бұрын

Why not! I would of loved being there, I’m not very experienced but I’m sure there were others there that weren’t as well.. artists support each other no matter what.. expensive to go though, I’m sure.

A large sketchbook is such a jump back to the old school painters who used to bring large canvas out of doors. in my opinion it does not seem travel friendly however, it does open up your imagination and mind.

0:50 seagulls are quite aggresive and fast. In the town where I live, on the big marketplace, there are stalls where fish is sold (both fresh and cooked, ready to consume). And a lot of seagulls, too. They will snatch the fish from your plate if you don't watch out! Also a lot of pigeons, they're more like flying rats. Thanks for the video! Interesting sketchbook tour.

If I had tons of space to work in, I would draw on big paper all the time. The strokes are much nicer when you can get your full arm involved.

Loved the kid with a tshirt ‘just chill bro’ shouting and stamping at some seagulls. Haha.

Thank you for all the videos you have given us over the symposium, it's great to feel part of it. What is the name of your small palette with the integrated water container?

@berolinastrassmann Жыл бұрын

That is the Schmincke Horadam 8 full pan palette, which includes water container.

@teohyc Жыл бұрын

Someone mention it's Schmincke, but it's actually a generic 12-pan metal box with integrated water bottle that's sold by many brands, including Winsor Newton. You may be able to buy an empty box too.

I think I might just pull out my large sketch books and give them a whirl. Why keep them on the shelf and never use them? Was the paper he was using strictly sketch or could it be used for watercolor? Who manufactured his book? His ideas were interesting and I agree in that the last time I took one of my large sketch outdoors I did accumulate more onlookers than normal. Some of the food I saw was rather interesting. What was the food that appears to be squash or pumpkin? It appeared to be orange or orange-brown and sauce-like. Again, thank you for showing us more of New Zealand. I just wish you had been able to show more of the country side. From what I hear and have seen in pictures it can be very beautiful (thus sketch-able). -OkieSketcher1949

Looked like a Strathmore Mixed Media 11x14. I love them. 100% cotton paper but pricey. Edited: on second glance, it wasn't, but do check out that Strathmore. I have been very pleased with them.

@@lightwavz Thank you for the tip. I know right where to go to get one once I’ve finished the one I have already. It was a Christmas present. I’ve had it a good ten years or more and I doubt I’ve used more than two or three pages.

@@lightwavz I’ve been following Teoh for several years now. In fact I have to blame him for getting me into Urban Sketching! I really liked what he did, how he did it, and all the tips he passed out. His videos are normally the first ones I look for when I sign into You Tube. Because of him I have been turning many of my older pen and ink sketches into pen and ink watercolor washes. Now I often take my new pen and ink sketches one step further by adding water color. I hope he never retires from You Tube. -OkieSketcher1949

given the cost of watercolor brushes as they go up in size, its no wonder you rarely see large sketchbooks

Teoh- was his sketchbook something you can buy commercially? It looked A3 to me but I’ve never seen a sketchbook that size. I have few A4 sketchbooks and have thought about trying to bind a larger one myself- but I’ll be honest… I don’t want to😂. This was a fun video- thank you!
