Come join me along my sketching journey. My goal is to sketch everyday for one year and to see the improvement from the practice. I've been an artist for years and it's my full time job but never really sketched. I came across Urban Sketching and fell in love and it was a challenge at first but I see my sketching getting better everyday. I will share with you some tips and tricks that have helped me to improve my daily sketches.
Ink & Watercolor Sketch Tutorial of Alys Beach, FL
I love the architecture of Alys Beach, I'm always drawn in to the crisp white buildings with beautiful tropical foliage. Throw in a pool or the beach and you have the perfect palette.
In this tutorial I use Mei Liang solid watercolor which was given to me to try and pass on a review. This set comes with 52 pans of high color concentration with good transparency. I really enjoyed the quality of this set and the pure color. This set also comes with a 0.5 pen, B pencil, #5 round brush, sponge and some watercolor paper.
Supplies Used:
*Watercolor Paper amzn.to/40PlTHV
*Pencil that comes with Mei Liang amzn.to/40PlTHV

Paul Rubens Watercolor Paint Review with a Demo Boat Painting

I was asked to give Paul Rubens watercolor paint a try and a review.

I decided to do a sketch of a boat and share my experience with the palette. It turned out nice and I enjoyed doing this video Supplies Us...

This sketch tutorial is good for a beginner who would like to try to sketch people. I like to practice faces, hands and shoes on a scratch paper first before I commit to watercolor paper with ink. It took a lot of practice and patience and there are times I want to quit but when I finally get it it feels great! Keep pushing if your a beginner and if your not and you got it down I salute you.🫡 S...

Ink and Watercolor in Real Time Oyster Painting
Thank you for the interesting information! I plan on painting one! Diane Antone had a tutorial for an owl. I don't recall if it was a burrowing, but cute! The orange dot on the eye made a huge difference.
A great sketch, a lot to see, you're so right about the shadows, I love it. The colours you used seemed to work well too - it looks like a good palette to have. Mx🌷
Thank you, I'm attracted to Alys Beach because of the beautiful white buildings. Have a great day!
After all the very cold, snowy weather we've had, it was so nice to watch you painting this pool! You made the perspective look so easy! What a wonderful sketch!
Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoyed it.🥰
Fun to watch from up North.
Thank you 💕
I always hesitate to paint with white, like snowy spaces, polar bear etc. With your today tuto I learn a lot and I will take more importance with shadow. Thank you for your artistic sharing.
A polar bear would be a great challenge. Thank you for watching and a lovely comment.💕
❤beautyfull
Thank you🩷
Ooooh...ok I'm rong !😊
😂
That looks like a place somewhere in south-Africa ....😊 between Port-Elisabeth and Capetown 🌞🌞🤩
Those must be beauitful areas as well.
Great idea! I love it!
Thank you! 😊
I get mine done at Hobby Lobby. They have a ton of ready to go frames that are 1/2 every other week and the mats are usually $10. Even my largest ones are usually only about $50. Most smaller ones are $25.
That's a good price, I was looking for a frame there for a customer and it was still expensive with the 50% off. Over 200.00 for a 12x18 and I wasn't looking at a very expensive frame.
Thank you for the warm Florida feelings.
My pleasure☀️
❤❤❤❤
Thank you🥰
🌅💛🧡🩵
Thank you🌴💕
Thank you, Karen...I totally enjoy watching your short video clips here... I've always been a sketcher and I'm learning to watercolor thanks to you and another one of my favorites on RUclips, Paul Clark from the UK... he's also amazing and has so many tutorials. This little video clip was so fun to practice. Rock on kiddo.
I love to watch Paul Clark, he's so talented. I laugh when he drinks a beer and he's almost through dry January. 🤣
Genius idea using the posca, and the orange reflection worked perfectly. A great little sketch. I'll have a go tomorrow - i keep meaning to do an evening or dawn sky. We've got a massive storm coming our way tomorrow and, while it will be bad, it won't be anything like the storms the US has had in recent days, weeks, months. I'm sorry to hear people in NC are still in tents! Floridians must've thought ths sky was falling in. I saw a reel of a guy putting salt on his driveway.. with pink himalayan salt in a salt shaker. Sorry, but it was funny. Stay safe, Karen, don't get cold! Mx🌷
I've seen the salt videos too and I laughed as well. I want to do a evening street view sketch one of these days. Stay safe and warm my friend🥰
@KarenJohnsonArtist thank you, its blowing a hoolie! So loud! Lights keep flickering too. I've been painting, to keep my mind occupied. Mx🌷
I love that little life guard house and your palm trees are 👍🏻
Thank you, I love sketching loose palm trees.
It beautiful. What color ink do you use in the beginning of your sketch?
I always use black ink.

Beautiful
Thank you
Love this one! One of my favorites. It’s brrr cold here in Ormond Beach, too! I so agree with you about those STILL suffering in NC. Praying they’ll get help now.
I know this weather is crazy! I'm going to have to move further South.😂
This is so sweet! A simple happy painting. Mx🌷
Thank you, it was a fun one!
Well done Karen....thank you.
Thank you🌴
You create happy art. A joy to watch.
Awwww thank you, you are to kind. 😊💕
Awesome...how adorable. Love the story of this beautiful family. Caroline
We are getting close to mating season soon and there are a couple more nests on the block. Babies will appear in March🥰 Thank you for watching Caroline.
wow..this was so helpful to watch! I learned a lot and love how took to slow and simplified the process...the hardest part for me is taking out some details...awesome job..hope u can continue to do vids like this! thanks!
I can get detailed too. I think is good to leave things out so the viewer can fill in those details with their imagination. Thank you for watching and the lovely feed back. 💕
Just found your channel, subscribed ALL. Can’t wait to watch more, I’m allowing myself to create more after a few years! Happy to watch.
Awesome! Thank you!
Rock on Karen....well done.....
Thank you again! 🥰
Love how you sketch & paint! Thank you for sharing
Thank you for watching and the lovely comment. So glad you enjoyed my sketch🥰
Nice job Karen and fun to watch. Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Nice Job Karen, I just subscribed and look forward to seeing all of your video clips here. Thank you for sharing. Mike in Coos Bay, Oregon
Hi Mike, Thank you! My sister lives in Florence and I need to make plans for another visit, I love Oregon!
New sub here! I love the way you show the photo while you sketch and paint- its so helpful to see the process that way- so thank you..I have not seen all your videos yet but I will ! do u sketch plein air too? that is the hardest for me - looking forward to more content form you!
I sketch from the comfort of my home from a photo😊 I have gone out a couple of time to sketch but haven't added watercolor yet. Thank you for watching and reaching out💕 also thank you for subscribing.
So well explained and love how you did all the details Seems so doableThanks
Thank you, I'm so glad you liked this one🌴
Thank you for sharing this beautiful picture. I have been working on a lighthouse watercolor for my mom’s birthday. I’m still a beginner with the watercolor technique but have been drawing for years. These videos are very informative and helpful. 😊
That will be a lovely gift for your mom. I'm so glad I could help. 💕
I love this one! It's so nice to think about bright happy birds and beaches on a very cold cloudy day like the one we're having now! And I thought it was interesting that since you're in Florida and probably go to beaches all the time, versus me that never goes, you knew to make the sand darker around the water. I'm not sure I would have noticed the difference! And I really love the perspective lines of this sketch!
I'm so happy you enjoyed it. Thank you for watching and stay warm😊
So cute! Love it and will paint one like this, thank you! ❤
Have fun! 🎨
That was fantastic! Super fun to watch! Thank you! I liked how you got the first person in and then it made it easier to see where the rest goes 👍👍😛👍. I’ve done a few people but mostly shapes of people no faces yet. Feet and hand are hard! Great job Karen! Bravissimo! 💛🌧️💛🌧️💛🌧️💛. Cheers!
That's the nice thing about this one, no faces. It was fun to sketch the ponchos. Thank you🥰
Gorgeous! The eyes and the beak are perfect, thanks, Karen. Mx🌷
Thank you so much for the compliment🥰
Lovely painting Karen . Hope you had a nice holiday. I need to catch up on a few of your previous paintings.😄
I was just thinking about you yesterday. My holidays were lovely and filled with family and friends. I hope you have a very happy and healthy new year💕
I smile more and more every time I see your next video. ❤️
Thank you, I love to hear that! 🥰
This is gorgeous, Karen! Lovely sketch, great colours. I love a double spread in a sketchbook. I'm not brave enough to use the first page tho! It looks a great size to take on vacation. I'll have a look, thanks. Mx🌷
Nice thing is I bought this book on sale for only 5.00 so it doesn't stress me out so much 🤣
@KarenJohnsonArtist fantastic!
So pretty! Such a lot of detail , but you make it look easy. That it's a memory of a time with family makes it extra special. It's odd but wonderful how a sketch or a painting holds a stronger memory than a photo. Thank you Mx🌷
Photos never do the subject justice. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you 🥰
Love this! My favorite! ❤
Yay! Thank you!
Beautiful painting and love the music and your voice in the video.
Thank you so much!
The paints are pretty. That you
Thank you 🎨
New subscriber scrolling RUclips and found what I've been looking for since I began watercolors in my 60s. I bought a pretty little painting of a shotgun house during the pandemic and it reminded me of home/childhood. For the first time in my life I wanted to draw and paint and I couldn't do either. I can follow your teaching style and plan to loosely paint this house a lot as I remember the shotgun houses of my youth. Love the way you teach.
I love that you are excited and have a fun project. Sometimes I will sketch and paint the same subject 3 to 4 times and it always gets better. Thank you for watching and just keep practicing💕
New subscriber here, just what I've been looking for loose/easy. Began watercolors in my 60s with the desire to express/relax with this pretty medium. Enjoyed sketching/painting this one and looking forward to the little house that reminds me of my grands shotgun houses in Alabama. Just right for those of us who want to do a little not a lot.
I have worked with so many mediums and really love watercolor. It's not as messy as oils or acrylics but it's not very forgiving. I hope you find much success in your adventure 🥰
Beautiful color😊🎉🎉🎉
Thank you 🤗
thank you for sharing your process. I was sketching from photos myself this evening and it is fun to see someone welse do similar things.
Thank you for watching. It's a great hobby and I need to do it everyday. Hope you find the same joy as I do 💕
💛
Thank you💕
Oh! And I caught a glimpse of some other great sketches there... any chance you'll be showing them sometime?
The first two I made into videos, they are recent ones.
@KarenJohnsonArtist huh. I've watched then all, haven't I? Looked like a bus.... I always go back to your channel when I out of inspiration, so I'll check it now 😊xx
@@margaretpinsent6388 That was a food truck in St. Pete and I wasn't a fan of how the ink work turned out on the truck. I will try it again and see if I could improve on that and share it.
