  • Hi everyone, today I'm sharing with you my morning finding inspirations at a favorite cafe. I captured 3 people sitting in front of me in my sketchbook quickly and effectively. Then I sketched the shelves behind them, and using watercolors to depict the cozy interior space. Please watch the video until the end for my full process composing this sketchbook page using pen and watercolors.
    🎨 Materials I used:
    - Sailor's fude fountain pen
    - Noodler's Brown 41 Ink (to fill the fountain pen)
    - Mungyo watercolors
    - Etchr Mix-Media A4 size Landscape Sketchbook
    - Holbein Water Brush (large tip)
    - Holbein water brush (medium tip)
    🎨 I'm teaching online classes every week. Check them out the newest 2024 classes in my Ko-Fi Shop:

    I also love my Sailor fude de mannen pens, although I generally prefer the 40 degree nib over the 55 degree one. But I use smaller sketchbooks in general.

      Yes I agree that the bamboo one is a bit harder to control compare to the blue one. But have fun trying and playing, it takes some practice to get used to these pens.

    Incredible sketch Becky, I remember how I struggled to sketch in coffee shops without also composing my food, people, and cafe, then painting on location. I know you have been disciplined in your practice for years.!! How did you overcome early attempts that didn't turn out well and stay positive?? Were you a prodigy and always drew as a child? I love kittys and art and your work!! Thanks from Canada 🍁 ❤😊😊

    • @BeckyCao
      @BeckyCao  2 месяца назад

      Thank you! I love drawing since I could hold a pencil... for almost 30 years now and non stop. I don't think I was a prodigy but I simply enjoyed drawing and sharing with friends and family for years and years... I just threw a drawing away if it didn't turn out well and keep on creating, no negative emotions. ☺️

    It would be great to show how you decide shading on coffee cups and other food items. I always get shading wrong. Like on a donut there are so many highlights and shadows everywhere

    Ooh, the gooseneck phone holder is cool. I was wondering how you get the top down view in a cafe! Which one is it please? The ones I have looked at on amazon, the reviews say it's very stiff and difficult to move the neck part. How is the one you have? If you like it, please share brand and model or link? Thanks so much Becky. Another inspiring video!

    • @BeckyCao

      I purchased the Gooseneck phone clamp, Avantree brand. Unfortunately, it has been out of stock for a long time. Here is the link anyway, for your reference:
