- I started experimenting with this sketching process about 3 years ago and I keep coming back to it. Very effective, fun and satisfying. This is not just for faces. Works for sketching any subject in just about any sketchbook.

I’ve been doing quick little portrait studies of the folks in the nursing home where I volunteer. They LOVE it! This will help fill out these little studies for them. Could use this technique for drawing ANYTHING! Thank you, once again!
That is so sweet! I love it. I have a real soft spot in my heart for the elderly, and imo we don't respect and treat them well in the US.
That is such a lovely way to use your skills :)
I know their character and their life experiences are all over their faces. I'd imaging observing and sketching their hands would also be a reflection of the person and their life.
Love this!!! Yes, more landscapes using this method would be great.
I would really appreciate seeing some landscapes done this way. The sketches are amazing as always.
Your work is amazing!! Id love to see a landscape using this technique 😊
I love this! Such a great idea!
Landscape please, thanks for the video. I am really anxious to try gouache.
I started doing this recently as well when I was returning to anatomy studies and found myself not wanting to use graphite or charcoal but not wanting the unforgiving nature of jet black ink brushes, so I just started using a brush pen with dried up patches of gouache. Now I just do it on the regular, or over top of line. And it's a great way to get a lot more use out of dried up gouache that might not be ideal for something more serious but that would also be a waste to just wash off a palette and squeeze more from tubes just for the sake of some studies. Thick toned tan paper is probably my favorite thing to work on.
Love this. I'm trying to get back into art and recover my confidence lost since adolescence by not practising. Feel a bit intimidated by the (expensive) watercolours I bought and feel like I was always much more of a natural drawer anyway, so this might be exactly what I need to try.
When I saw the white going on the paper I thought WOW! No way! Then it faded to calm. Excellent technique. Next time I am in town I will look for the brush.
Thank you, I love this process and will definitively try it. Would love to see you do some landscape sketches.
LOVED the watercolor sketches! Incredible work!
Yes, please do watercolor sketches of landscapes and still lifes?
That would be wonderful!
Thank you!
You are so incredibly talented to make this look easy! Wow!! Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us!
This was great! Such and inspirational and I definitely would love to see a landscape with this technique. Thanks Steve! 🙂
Landscape thumbnails are great but I actually love seeing you draw people for a change. I've done a kind of drawing with a brush before, but not often, and not on toned paper - it's really cool.
Yes please, more of this, in anything you want to with a little of what's going through your mind whilst drawing, it's truly superb.
MARAVILLOSO. Muchas gracias!
Your tinted graphite and watersoluable charcoal would also work great. Just use a spritzer to keep them juicy. Thanks for sharing.
Great technique/process! i've had those water-brushes for years and hadn't found a good way to use them. Thank you for your video ❤
hehe couple of hours later i went and dug my water-brushes out and tried your technique. It worked better than i was expecting. I already fashioned a tiny kit out of a pill box with black and white quache and made a small sketchbook out of coloured paper. Thanks again.😄
So amazing. Loving this sketching technique as well. I didn’t know they made water brushes with that fine a tip.
Thank you for your lesson. Lesson about scetching landscapes would be great
Landscape thumb nail would be fantastic. Your talent is great. I need to try this. Thanks
Thank you for this useful content.
Lovely studies! I have a stillman and birn nova, and hear devoted it to master studies so this is so inspirational. It shows the highlights so well!
I do have a question- have you used a similar technique with your graphitint pencils?
Not specifically in tinted books. I have sketched some in regular (white) sketchbooks with watercolor pencils in general. It's a fun process also.
Are you using watercolor with a tube of white gouache? Or is it gouache in pans???
Gouache in pans.
This brings back memories of the way I used to sketch on toned paper many years ago. Since I developed a tremor I really miss it.
Keep going with it, try and embrace the unique style you will get. I bet people will still love your sketching x
@@zoeuphoria Many thanks for the encouragement. I can manage to create imagery digitally, but it's the feel of actual pen, brush and paper/canvas that I miss.
Thanks for the intro to a reservoir brush…. Will check that out!
Reminded that drawing on a toned background it’s easy to use too much white accent
Thanks, love the effect I will definitely be trying this Derwent pen*
Leyendecker was one of a kind and sadly people don’t realize he trained Norman Rockwell
I just ordered 4 of them. I love your videos; I've been watching since I started with watercolors a couple of years ago. Your work is beautiful - what I aspire to. Thank you so much for all of them!!
Yes, landscapes, please!! I learn so much from watching you work in your videos. Thank you for making them!
Thank you Steve, great video you are awesome. Yes please love to see some landscapes.
I would very much like to see you do landscape sketches please.
Great sketching. Would like to try waterbrush. Yes would like to see that process with landscape
You are so talented. I’m a subscriber. I’d love to see this technique in landscape, if you have the time. Thanks for sharing.
I would sure be interested in landscapes with this technique. I have such a waterbrush laying around around, Not used it very much. But I've gotten into watercolours via my drawing hobby, and also been doing a couple of landscapes lately, so this is a good fit for what I'm experimenting with myself at the moment.
Yes definitely please do a couple landscape sketches using the waterbrush process. I would love to see it, as I'm struggling with this in my own sketches.
Thank you for your consideration in this.
Very nice. Yes, please do some landscapes with this technique.
Yes, please. Demo of this technique with landscapes. Thank you.
Loved this technique and yes! Landscape thumbnails please :D
wow i tried this and fell in love right away, thanks !
Yes, a landscape would be lovely!
Yes landscape with water brush please.
Brilliant! You truly are a fabulous artist!
i find this style of painting so intriguing. have to try it out for myself some time.
Yes landscape sketch tutorials please
Yes please ! Landscapes ! … and architectural, too ! Thanks muchly !
I’ve been working on more sketches. I really like this idea.
Would love to see this technique demonstrated with thumbnails, landscapes and plain air. Enjoy all your videos.
Would really appreciate a video like this for landscapes! Landscapes are a weakness of mine I'd really like to improve on and I love this method as a way to ease into them with a new perspective
Would love to see a landscape sketch like this! Thank you Steve for the fun video.
Sure … please do companion tutorial of a landscape! U r just a wealth of information! I so enjoy your tutorials! Thanks for sharing😊
This is a great method! It reminds me of my college life drawing class (fromMANY) years ago when we drew with neutral coloured pencil crayons on toned paper. I’m going to by a water brush for sure! Thank you so much!
There's a pigment you need to see!!! There's a video on Becky Treajear Art. Video is Super Vision Layering Watercolors. Definite worth seeing the color
Sounds like the Schmincke super-granulating colors.
Thank you for introducing this technique. It is such an effective way of drawing faces. I would love to see this demonstrated in thumbnail landscapes. One question, can you use watercolours and white gouache? If so, what paper would you use?
Yes, I would use the same paper as I would for any watercolor personally.
This is really interesting! Gouache is such a versatile medium 😊
This is interesting because I’m 53 and have drawn my whole life. I’ve recently started to work with color but tend to paint like I draw and it doesn’t work so well. This looks like a natural transition between the two. Do you cover how to do this in more detail somewhere? What is the differences between your patreon and your RUclips channel?
See the link in the video description for the original video about this process. Patreon is where people have signed up to sponsor my channel and there is some exclusive content there also.
That is inspiring! Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to try it.
You are a true master Steve, thank you for all your lessons.
Love to see a landscape example.
wondferful...more...yes
I enjoy watching you sketching like this! These are fantastic & have so much details. Yes please do a few more drawings with landscapes ❤!! You said that this is gouache. I noticed that you don’t have a stay wet palette or the sealable palette. Do you let the gouache dry into the pans then & use them as a watercolor mostly? Thanks for sharing this wonderful informational & inspirational video!!
I hope for an answer to this question too.
Yes, just like watercolor, which it basically is.
@@mindofwatercolor Okay thanks 😊, I do that with the leftover gouache paint on my mixing plate.
Thanks Steve. What a great idea! I will definitely try this!
I found this video very inspiring. Thank you Steve. I will Definitely give this a try.
Great video like portraits
Thank you! Very cool!
i am having such a hard time trying to do faces. you are so good at it. is there another video you do more about starting faces? love and watch all your videos, thanks .
I do have a discussion about what makes faces difficult with a few suggestions. Not really an in depth tutorial but it might help. ruclips.net/video/LBfCnLLkaE8/видео.html
Intriguing process.
A video about gouache would be great.
As always, learn so much from watching you work! Still using techniques from a nest demonstration! Thank you!
Love it. Yes, would like to see a landscape sketch.
yes please do some landscapes
Never mind! Five minutes after I asked the question about paper buckling, the question was addressed in the video!!! 😂
I loved this video. Please do more! I think your portraits are so skilled and appear so easy.
Thats dazzling sir! Ive been absolutely intimidated with watercolors so ive avoided them. Im soaking up alot watching you. Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us
Interesting, that would work with Urban Sketching as well. Thanks Steve!
You bet!
Hi Steve, beautiful portraits, as always ❤️.
Are you using Holbein from tubes in your pan set? Your Az link brings up a tube set. Thanks, as always, for sharing your experience.
Excellent ... I have everything you used .... just never never used them like that. I certainly will be. Thank you so much.
Bloody amazing! I must try this
Yes, to landscape thumbnails using this sketching method. Thanks. Great video!
I love watching your videos a lot. Thank you for sharing your expertise. You're a very talented artist and mentor.
Beautiful !! Will this process work with block forms of inktense, graphitint, water soluble graphite, plus some white gouache ? What about filling water brush with some diluted ink/fountain pen ink ? Would love to see some landscape as well as urban sketching. Thanks.
You can sketch that way but the processes of drawing would be totally different.
@@mindofwatercolor Do you mind talking/showing the differences ?
Your sketches are amazing! I not sure about the instrument you are using, it’s a fine point brush with water attachment. Not sure , but I do want my sketching to improve, and you are a-great instructor 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Yes, a water brush. All the supplies I use have links in the video description.
I check it out, thanks
Really enjoyed this technique…great idea! Would love to see landscapes as well…thank you!
@mindofwatercolor I have to admit that I bought these brushes because you have recommended them, and I haven't used them since. 🙈 I just can't switch to a waterbrush.
I always learn something from your videos. Thank you! I do have a question though about the gouache you're using. In the video, it appears to be a pan set, but the link to Amazon goes to a tube set. Is there a pan set, or have you filled your own pans, and if so, where is the empty tin palette available? Thanks much.
I filled it from tubes. I just bought something inexpensive off Amazon for the palette. I don't think they have that one anymore but it was similar to this one amzn.to/3DWhM13
@@mindofwatercolor Thank you….I found it!
That was great! 👍
I gave this a try and I love it! Thank you for sharing all your tips! They are fun, and I like the results, even though I'm not a watercolorist, and not strong on portraits. But this I can do!
I’ve never seen this technique! You are so talented! Thank you for sharing this!
Steve, can't thank you enough, I really enjoyed this video. I've been wanting to try gouache.
Loved it, Steve!
Great video, I would love to see this process being used for landscapes. Thanks for sharing.
This is mindblowing😮 I have never seen such effect with gouache
I am learning from your demonstrations. I draw and paint. This has given me the inspiration I need.
Masterful work as always my friend. I love anytime I can see you in action Steve.
Thanks so much buddy!
I love this!
Wow, I am blown away! I love how you are using watercolor for sketching. What a brilliant idea.
I really enjoyed watching this process and it seems you enjoyed yourself! I'm putting in a request to see this method used in landscapes. Thanks for this, it's offered me some good ideas. Even in trying it with marker.
What a pleasurable experience it was to see such talent in action. Thank you so much for the opportunity.
A great job
Wow! So nice! Isn’t it great that no matter how long we’ve been producing drawings, there always seems to be some new, technique/approach, to learn about. Thank you Sir!
