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!
Today we are urban sketching a characterful and complex street view in St Neots.l, my home town. But however complex the view there are ALWAYS tips and tricks we can use to simplify our scene and create something wonderful that really captures our imagination.
And that is what today is all about. A tutorial guide to show you that Urban Sketching with ink pen and watercolour really is that easy!
This is a reupload of one of my most popular videos, with a new voiceover and audio. It's shorter than the last video, but gets across all the same points - and it's one of my all time favourite sketches. On this day many months ago, it all went right for me - the shapes, the simplifying and the colours - so here it is again, how I successfully simplified this scene, despite the details and perspective. And produced something I love looking back on months and months down the line!
I will talk you through, step by step, how I set the scale of this imagine and use simple comparative measurements to make life easier for us. The sketching is all about using big shapes to set the scene, and suggesting details rather than trying to sketch every last window perfectly.
If you check out the chapters you'll get a flavour of the kinds of tips, tricks and hacks throughout this whole tutorial. Alternatively join me for the whole sketch as we relax and have a bit of fun sketching the day away.
As ever, the focus of today's tutorial is simplicity, accepting errors and embracing the random moments that give us happy little accidents and real beauty in our image.
In addition, I am trying out a 'fude pen' - a wonderful textured pen with a flexible nib, but still capable of acting mostly like a fine liner. The best of both worlds? You decide!
