Thanks for tuning in to watch my urban sketching, ink and watercolour tutorial! Don't forget to check out my channel where I have hundreds of different urban sketch tutorials, as well as other watercolour and ink sketching guides for everyone from beginners to more advanced!

If you'd like to support my channel you can buy me a 'Coffee' on KoFi - ko-fi.com/tobyurbansketch
When I reach my goal I'll upgrade my sketching tutorials with a new camera and use my old camera to give an extra view point in my videos! Perhaps my face, perhaps my watercolour palette, or some close ups of my process!

Yes, the scene looks so complicated - a Cathedral, Ely Cathedral to be precise.

And YES, we could make it a really complicated sketch - but I didn't want to.

I'm adding this, as well, to my 'famous places' series - a series of sketches of famous landmarks that show that simple and easy sketches can be super effective. You don't need to be overawed by your choice of scene :)

Instead, lets make it easy, fun, relaxing and simple to get our urban sketch down today. Including a cathedral, millions of windows, and a crowd of people having tea on the lawn. So much going on :)

Instead of getting drawn in to all the myriad of complicated details, instead we can make things amazingly simple - focus on those big shapes, suggest details, don't worry about mistakes, and keep things loose and gentle until you're sure you can be a bit bolder.

Most of all, stop BEFORE you've gone to far - this means taking a step back every couple of minutes and thinking, 'am I happy with this?'.

It doesn't have to be perfect, and it really doesn't matter if it goes all wrong. But I bet, if you start simplifying things a bit, you'll be happy far more often than not :)
