Sketching in Public - Tips from a Riot Artist
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 июн 2024
- Rembert Montald has been sketching in public for years, turning life's moments into sketches that feel like a journey through memories. Drawing in places like public transportation has taught him the importance of capturing the essence of a moment, focusing on unfamiliar things and filling in the rest with memory or imagination. For Rembert, sketching is a form of meditation that keeps his skills sharp and his mind active. Sketching, whether it's people, places, or random thoughts, has become a way to document life, practice storytelling, and stay connected to the world around us.

"Realism doesn't mean more detail, realism means it feels like it's alive."
And that changed my life.
What words!
Lemme watch the video now
and that's why I call "realism" fotorealism, bc the point of fotorealism is not expresion, it's accuaracy, and that's why it's boring
@@nunocabreracancelo
To your perspective
That's why it's boring - to your perspective
Don't diminish other people's works and/or style. Real artists/ people of arts don't flourish on that. Try to alter your approach
@@14onyxabsolutly, i also dont vibe with hyperrealism, but the work that they do is just amazing, I think no one can deny thay they are just amazing artist, but I get why the other guy says that
Him Drawing his wife is so wholesome 😭😭
Cutee
Thank you to the whole Proko team for having me again! Let's goo^^
It's always the best to get to hang out with you!
Bro, you are still doing pretty good in the hair department!
A big thank you for this walkthrough of your sketches. You actually helped me better understand how I should approach sketching in public. I tend to get too tied on with one particular thing, forgetting that I can just come back to those gestures later and draw what I'd like to be there. Also, your advise on drawing people in these settings who keep moving, to have multiple working gestures since they tend to return to their original position. This advice and keen insight is invaluable. Thanks for a wonderful walkthrough. Ordering you book!
@@TocharaehD Thank you for the kind words! Glad it helped and thank you for the support! ^^
rembert i am a mssive fan of your art and i wanted to know if you use any techniques to draw the head while you’re drawing?
Kudos for him to actually being able to make lines in public transportation, that's a really complicated challenge.
And also for the courage to draw in public, I don't know why I always feel kinda embarrassed and uncomfortable when there's people around.
im the exact same!! i always want to get out and draw in public but i feel embarrassed and weird about it, even though rationally no one really cares
i feel you man! same
the more you draw out there the less conscious you become with it. People always said the same thing to me when they see me drawing on the train or whatever. Tbh you just go with the flow, def not trying to do clean drawings on public transit.
At my last job I worked at a public park and would practice sketching on the cart in between work sites. It was not very practical, but I just wanted to draw throughout the day so bad.
I liked how he described drawing the details of the tram but filling in the characters later because he knew how to draw people. It makes it seem more achievable when you hear how artists dissect their work in that way.
I can see the Kim Jung Gi inspiration in his art, and I love that.
I'm a returning artist, lost hope in it after dropping out of school, and tried pursuing bus and truck driving as an easy means to making money.
Despite becoming money hungry and not really making great strides in making anything beyond living pay check to pay check, I grew disgruntled with life and how I hated the daily grind.
After a bout of deep, sudden depression and suicidal ideation late last year, I realized I needed a change in scene for everything.
Decided to take up my old hobby of drawing, and while I'm not quite as good as I was at age 16 (turning 32 this year)... I'm now a full-time student studying a diploma in animation.
Found your channel looking for character design tips as I hit a type of writer's block and came across this video in the process.
I absolutely love your accuracy and your channel, I can't afford most things anymore as I used up all my savings for pursuing this career and getting out of the depressive slump I was in.
I'm truly inspired to one day be as good as you, if not better than you, and I will strive to be the best I can be and find a way to make it as an artist.
Thank you for sharing your progress and making your channel; life and circumstances can be soul crushing, but to find hope even in misery can be a total life saver.
It's difficult having a vivid imagination and the inability to make it a reality, but I dearly hope with enough practice, tutorials, and time I will find a way not only to make ends meet but to inspire others just as you have.
And of course, to finally turn my dreams into reality, it's daunting and scary, and my autism and ADhD and their procrastinating traits definitely don't help!
Still, I adore the idea of being able to draw my girlfriend so perfectly as you have your wife.
I hope this message finds you well, life isn't easy, probably the biggest understatement in history; yet still, having a reason to live, a reason to see tomorrow, is worth more than money can ever buy.
Thank you again for inspiring those like us in finding a way in this turbulent world and in this creative space.
Showing us what's possible and what everyone is capable of with enough effort and investment in the skills you've honed.
It boggles my mind because I'm nowhere near this level, and it's almost overwhelming to think I could ever get this good.
However, I will do whatever I can to beat the odds and prove my doubts wrong, and prove to my father I can succeed in this, I can be happy pursuing and it isn't a waste money chasing. 😊
Onwards and upwards!
i think your story's pretty inspiring already! :D
best of luck to you, dude. hope things work out
I wish you all the best luck and heartfelt thanks in the world. Knowing you are inspired to draw and pick up a pencil is the biggest compliment. Draw things that are close to the heart and enjoy the process more than the result. You will get better eventually! Good luck!
best of luck with your creative journey ❤ !
Travel well on your journey friend 🌸
Marshall: That's not a bald spot. This is a bald spot.
The Stan and Marshall cameo was the most unexpected but absolutely welcome addition to this video. I thought the Proko team filmed these with just the artists and film crew, but Stan and Marshall being present is awesome.
More Marshall, all of the time. More Stan and Marshall, all of the time. MORE DRAFTSMEN with Stan and guests like the Jeff Watts episode. 😁
Every once in a while, Stan and Marshall will get to be there for recordings. It's always great when we get to have everyone in one place!
Always love sketchbook flip-throughs. I really like Rembert's sketches and it was good to see Marshall as well.
Very beautiful and creative art style. His sketches of his wife sleeping in motion, the girl standing on the leg and shifting and other quick but unseen human motions are my favorite. Thank you for this walk through his sketch book.
So freaking hyped to get my hands on this book. His work has already had such an influence on my own.
From someone who struggles with visualizing: Looking at Remberts sketches and drawings makes me feel like my imagination can finally breathe and dream with inspiration.
I can't express my appreciation enough! Thank you for the opportunity to get a glimpse into your imagination.
Had to order this book immediately!
can't get enough of this guy!!!!!
We can't either!
Rembert talks about his thumbnails a lot, and i think it would be really cool to get a rundown of his processes for doing thumbnails
We'll see what we can do!
I love how he has a story for almost each of his drawings. Shows so much of his passion and love for art. This was so inspiring! ❤️ Hoping for more contents like this!!!
As soon as I saw Rembert Montald, I clicked the video. His every time drawing habit inspires me. ❣️ Thank you a lot for having him.
Yasss fav artist!
He's the best!
okay just a little reminder to anyone else feeling insecure about their sketchbooks right now; remember that this is a compiled book of all his favourite sketches, *not* a sketchbook in its entirety. There would be so so many roughs and ugly ones that we just don't happen to see.
The skill itself? that you can feel insecure about lol
This is incredibly important to remember! Everyone's going to have some pages they like and dislike. But even more important is knowing what YOUR sketchbook is FOR.
As people who have seen a bunch of Rembert's sketchbooks, they're filled with drawings of this quality. The "best" and "worst" drawings often come down to his opinion and how well he feels he executed on his intention. He's found a way to be okay with the results and work with his mistakes and that leads to showier pieces.
That's not what everyone's sketchbook is for, though. We just shared a video with Devin Elle Kurtz where she talks about he sketchbook being used for roughing out ideas and concepting. It's not for showing at all. Both Rembert and Devin are incredible artists with gorgeous work. But they approach what they put on the books very differently.
TLDR: Know your purpose of sketchbooking and let that guide you. It's not there to show off but it's cool if you make something you do want to show.
Needed to hear this
As we never see the ugly ones. Just the well visualized. They are just happen to not be in included in the book as early sketches. I wonder really
@@14onyx We have a different video with Rembert, just flipping through his sketchbook. there are some unfinished bits here and there but his process is one that really lends itself to there being very few "unsalvageable" dawings. He turns his mistakes into part of the character of the drawings and rolls with it.
You can see that here:

Whhhooooo !!! Those sharing moments Are so precious !!! Thanks for sharing ! Little story : in art school, many years ago the director welcome us the studio arriving on our first day first of our journey (potentially 5 years) was telling us many stories preparing us for being rough, and at some point a photograph artist came in and join the « party » . We were feeling kind of topsy-turvy 😅 and the photographer was sharing with us and the director (being also a photographer) how precious and special it would be to share work on a one on one basis, in a small place, in front of an old office desk, with lots of drawers , from where he would let people grab the picture , and if and when people ask questions they would spend time like that sharing the adventure of the process . What seems for them at the time a dream way to perform an exhibit ;)) in 1988 ;) hahaha ! I love how this dream is real nowadays ;))). Thanks for sharing ! Cheers !
Your channel is everything because i always show great drawing and artist in your channel according to you
I love how creative you can be. It really inspires me to do more
It's always great to see some sketchbook of artists❤❤❤
One of my favorite recurring Proko guests🍀
Absolutely amazing.
loosing the feeling of time is a real one.
Some of the best advice I’ve heard! I want to draw more from daily life and this is just what I needed!
So great, we are glad to work on this project with Rembert Montald! 📚😀
rembert is on another level. so cool that his sketchbook is more like an archive
I don't get "Tips from a Riot Artist" vibes from this video, it's more like a presentation, although those drawings are amazing. I can't even imagine doing something like this on your lap.
Because there are no real tips in this one as the title misleads. Regardless of the great result
Gods, i love color so much. At one point i had tried drawing lots of flowers from online photos and coloring/painting them with watercolor pencils. Eventually i was still intimidated by animals and the idea of drawing people still so i slowed down and stopped. Probably a few years went by before i replaced the hobby with fiber-arts. Depending on the project it goes much slower but i’ve gotten to use what i make and still i get to fill my time with beautiful colors.
Now i’ve gotten my hands on some fountain pens and lovely inks from god knows how many brands. Not only am i trying to carve out time to teach myself cursive again, hopefully very legible cursive, but watching things like this really make me want to go out and sketch the flowers that grow from my family’s pond. Guess i’ve gone full circle, hopefully i’m mature enough now to be patient with myself.
Simply awesome......what a lesson
Ordered the book, can’t wait to get it!!
this reminds me of mister Gung Gi. Rip. he was a inspiration to me
Absolutely brilliant, thank you for sharing!
He is so awesome! I hope to improve my skills to that level with practice and dedication. He is definitely that way lol. He never seems to stop!
This was really so inspiring, thank you👑✨
the journey is what matters. yes his sketches are amazing, but only because he is constantly on a journey of documenting the visual world. the drawings are just the byproduct. very cool!
I love the way he drew people. How alive and clean the lines are. Ive been told that it doesnt matter how long a piece takes but I cant help to wonder about how long it took to clean up those sketches! I feel as those the more i think about being loose, the more sharp and stiff my drawings become.
I hope Rembert will do a Proko course one day❤ And I`m really waiting for the bookrelease😊
Awesome book.
Thanks for sharing your drawings!
Me with aphantasia and 0 imagination watching this, the but with "when you draw in public, do you take a snapshot?" and I finally realized why i was so bad/unable to draw from life. I need the reference, and i need it for the whole process, because my brain just will not show me the "memory" of what a person looked like at a certain point in time when I ask it. It just won't happen.
I have aphantasia, so does Glen Keane (Disney), Ed Catmull (Pixar), Kait Ritter (Disney TVA), AutoGiraffe, and RadioRunner. It's hard, but keep at it!
Like Liam said, it's possible! We also have a great video here on the channel with Irshad Karim that talks about how to creating as a person with aphantasia:
ruclips.net/video/LWgXSxxEjgs/видео.htmlsi=bqZEOihcT_x2xVdd
@@LiamHz I have a feeling I would not be an artist if I didn't have aphantasia. I draw to bring to life the things I want to have or see, and if I was able to imagine those things like people make movies in their head, I wouldn't be learning how to draw.
It is hard, a lot of the time I'm fine, but sometimes I do get sad about it.
Thank you ♥
@@ProkoTV Thank you for the reply! I needed something like Drawabox, so I'm going to try it out. I only realized how important structure is a year ago when I studied Steve Houston's book, and suddenly my art became so much better. Frustrated and disheartened teenage me would be so happy now.
But I wanted to ask if you have or plan to make any videos about learning to love art. Learning to love to draw, end enjoy the process. I heard "you cannot be an artist if you don't enjoy drawing" in one of your videos, and I often think about it. Yet despite not enjoying drawing, and needing to take frequent breaks, I am still here. And I wonder if this is something that will just click for me once the change of mindset is complete for me, as I've been working on my mental health and my habits a lot. Or if it is something that I can get some advice for that will make the process quicker.
It seems that by basing my identity on being "the art kid", and then getting my ego and pride hurt when I was no longer as good as other classmates, really made it hard for me to draw. I focused on the result rather then drawing itself, and made it a competition. Over the years of sitting down to draw only to get upset at how bad I percieved my art to be, i conditioned my brain to associate drawing with negative feelings and emotions, and I really have had to push myself into sitting down to draw, ignoring my inner critic, and being kind to myself.
And I've been wondering if this is something other people struggle with. It's been hard finding any resources regarding this issue, as I've struggled to put it into words and rationalize it. I'm on this journey of understanding what happened to me regarding my art, and of improving my art alongside with healing my perfectionism and fear. I've made a lot of progress, and I feel I'm so close to getting my answers, and that fills me with hope.
@@ProkoTV I dove into Drawabox. Lesson 0 part 3 talks about the 50% rule. about drawing even if I don't feel capable, and pushing past the frustration of not making good art. About changing the mindset of being terified of faliure. It also talks about drawing with depression, and dealing with mental health.
I feel this is a new level of my search for answers and my art journey. Thank you for directing me towards it!
Man Amazing art ! proko always makes me have' new art favorites !
My goodness, beautiful work!
Great drawings, wau! Love them! Just ordered the book. Can't wait to get it 🙂
Very cool interview. Always nice to hear the artist talking about his way of working.
Just ordered the book, now the waiting begins. Thank you proko for the video
We know you're going to love the book! We certainly do.
❤I see my daily sketches as memories not for profit. So the fact he put it into a book is inspiring❤ Makes me want to sketch more daily. I sketch my hubby more and I have more sketches of him in the same setting, was just thinking about that... It always looks like he doesn't do anything else 😂😂😂 I will try to catch him in other situations to try something different.
"Does she sleep that much?" Lol
Glad to know I’m not the only one who on occasion will lick my thumb for a better smudge 😅
Also Rembert’s proportions and framing are so fun! Will have to pick up his book for reference!
I see lots of Kim Jung Gi similarities, nice style
Also the comps are the same as Kim Jung Gi.
Same. There are too many similarities for that to be a coincidence. I think best artists are those who are themselves, not trying to be a watered-down version of someone else.
Absolutely in love with Remberts aesthetic. Would love to see him be the animation director for a modern take on Disneys Atlantis: The Lost Empire if it ever came to fruition
this video is amazing! ♥
We love Rembert! 🙌
Thanks, guys, that was inspiring.
Phenomenal drawings !
This guy's mad good
This was so inspiring to watch👏👏👏👏👏
incredible sketchbook!
This was so inspiring
I play valorant and i always thought that the art was really gorgeous, like it's next level of art. The art in this game really keeps the game alive in some way.
In the beginning i thought he was league of legends artist but i was actually surprised to hear he's from val.
Anyways his drawings are spectacular, love it❤
Man I want to see how and what he was drawing when he started learning. This all looks amazing
I would love to see his full drawing process. Start to finish
what a small world when one of your favorite artists just so happens to be from the same small town you grew up in, Leuven is tiny about 100,000 people and what are the chances had me grinding and you did a 1:1 of the market, its fun when you know the context behind a drawing, right in front of the town hall
Awesome!
Beautiful work man!! I'm terrible at sketching but good at illustrator/ photoshop.
Gorgeous
Am 15, an aspiring manga/comic artist and you have just inspired me
You and Marshall need a series with artists showing off their sketchbooks along with you.
De Kotmadam :o Loving the subtle Belgian vibe!
KJG very inspired!
Yeah I could see that too, he must have looked at his sketch books a lot
ngl I appreciate pretty hands in videos like this, was nice to watch
Fantastic
incredible
Awesome ❤. Bring Marshall's drawings for us to enjoy too, please!
This is amazing
"I'm not sponsored,please give me money." 😂 so wholesome
I am about to start learning how to draw. If i get half as good in 10 years, i would be satisfied.
I thought this was going to be a video on how he went from bad to good in 5 years. But he just went from awesome to still awesome.
Awesome to MORE awesome.
He does share some tips on here that can be applied to your own art, like plowing through a sketchbook page and making it bend to what you want out of it.
real good
very talented
Man I cannot wait for my book to arrive, ordered it a while back. His style is beautiful. Proko please create some courses with Rembert!
We'd love to! Rembert's a busy guy but he knows we're interested and available.
He's featured in Marshall's upcoming perspective course. That'll be a little taste of a Rembert course!
Good to see you here. Can't wait to see your book review 😊
@@p5rsona haha thanks so much!! That's mad to me that someone who watched my book videos would notice me in the Proko comments! XD
@@SketchedbyStehaha small world!
Very interesing 👍
He's the f***king Rainman of drawing !!!! .... Outstanding Sir !|!!!
This is a very inspiring video. I cannot watch it complete, because I am moved to begin to draw.
Good 1 👌
RRRRRRRIOOOOOOT!!!!!
Just I am thinking about you and with in a second you posted😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤
We heard the call!
@@ProkoTV sir thank you so much please give your blessings to become your student 😊😊❤❤❤❤
Kim Jung Gi slight censored version😅
Btw nice work ...Keep creating
inspiring
Wow, such great drawings! ❤❤❤
…Also, your wife is striking 😅
This drawings are so good. I will pre-order the book. I will also feel awful about my dilettantish doodles too.
Nothing wrong with some drawings that feel different compared to those whose work we like!
Having a style that's more simple or less rendered than others isn't a bad thing at all. A lot of people struggle to have less time consuming art styles. Acknowledge your weaknesses but know what the strengths of your work are as well!
Heyyy I'm going on a trip today! I can use this
Amazing art
I hope he points out how Kim Gi is blatantly his inspiration
He talks about it often
great aasss.
I need motivation more than any book, but that was certainly interesting ☺
Motivation can come from a book! But definitely out your money whenever it's needed most.
Watch this video if you don't want to pick up the book 😉
@@ProkoTV Nice point ! This video was inspiring =)
Bro casually mentions my hometown, that really threw me of hahah. De grote markt in Leuven.
When are you guys gonna jump into doing french and spanish videos? I translate for my son as we go along but it’s taking twice the video length (he’s 4 but very enthusiastic 😊)
Not joking here, could be documentary style voice overs, I can’t imagine it being that expensive to hire voice talent for this.
We have all the tools to do it. RUclips hasn't rolled out multiple language tracks to all channels yet.
But when we have it, we'll have as many language tracks as we can.
@@ProkoTV that is awesome! So glad, it’s gonna make so much quality content to show to my kids!
I want this! An art book of literally just art… yes!!!!
