This sketch was supposed to be fast and simple but I spent more time on it tweaking the details, so I won’t call this one a “loose” sketch(but loose or not is really a subjective thing I suppose). Hope you enjoy the real time and let me know if you prefer shorter/longer videos too!

Ps: sorry for the autofocus/blurry problems, I shall fix that in the next video alright🤞🏻

    This is the first time I have come across real time urban sketching and I love it!! As a new artist it’s hard to visualize what the sketching process is realistically when every video online is sped up. Lovely sketch! 😊

    "Your sketchbook is supposed to be your safe space to try new things, and to experiment. A place to have fun, to find new ideas, and gain some inspiration." <3

    I didn't understand for a long time what I like about inking and about watercolors, but your art makes me understand I like when it's both at the same time. I ordered a pen, I'll get started ! Thanks for the videos !
  • @doctornebula
    You are my favorite urban sketcher on YT. Love your style.
  • @mistermaggie

    LOve the longer ones. And the way you explain everything.I've just started sketching and found your videos very helpful.Thank you. Real time videos are definitely the way to go imo.

    I had fun too. It remains to be seen but I think I learned also. I like the way you instruct. I didn't start sketching until recently. I find your videos inspiring.
  • As always an excellent video! A cup of tea and my Friday evening was perfect. I’ve been painting more! I have a new sketch book. You inspire me! Thank you. I know editing a video this long is time consuming. I thank you for doing it. I look forward to the next one!
  • I am always happy to see you have a new video. I love when your paintings are made with very subtle colors, I think this one and the maison rose are my favorite. It's always nice to learn from you and to hear your thoughts. Very beautiful, relaxing and elegant video/painting as usual. Thank you, Jillee ❤

    Lovely to spend a Sunday afternoon drawing and painting with you. I was so glad when you added that touch of red on the left! Really helped my eyes move through the painting and connect the shapes and colours. Happy to see your subscriber ship increasing. Best wishes from Portland Oregon, USA.
  • I sketched along. Although my painting didn't come out that well the sketch was very easy to follow. I'm glad I found your channel. It's the first time I'm not crumpling away my art. Thank you❤
  • I just subscribed because I suck so bad at watercolors 😂 you ARE an inspiration. Thank you for posting!

    I just found your channel and it is so inspiring! I sketched along with you in this video and while I'm not 100% pleased with my results, I am still happy. Your process and instructions made it easy. I definitely want to try some more. 🤗
