    Love seeing and hearing you describe your process as you go along. So glad you didn't scrap it. It makes the process seem all the more approachable for me to try. And reinforces the notion of not quitting but pushing through those uncomfortable moments/phases to gain confidence

    This is a brilliant video for so many reasons. Thank you for sharing your inner critic commentary - it is so helpful to know that even someone of your calibre still has to deal with this. Secondly, I found it interesting to hear that your usual time for sketching is 2hrs plus. I had this idea that I had to be able to find, plan and finish an urban sketch in about 20 minutes all in. Totally unrealistic, it turns out! And finally, I loved seeing how you pushed on from the initial stage and kept adding things until it took shape. The final result is perfect for capturing a memory. Again, I tend to give up after the first ten minutes when the sketch is at its muddiest. So lots learned from this. Thank you!

    Thanks for sharing. It's interesting to see the whole process and how it looks really different when you add some details with the pens. It really came to life at the end. I am going on vacation in a couple of days and i was thinking to try sketching. I haven't tried this style yet and I have only picked up watercolor over the lockdown as art therapy, so i am not really good at it or anything. It is a bit intimidating to be honest. But at the end of the day if i really hate it i can just put it in a bin, or paint over it with gouache or something. Thanks for inspiration and for making it a little less intimidating :)

    • @tarias_sketchy_adventures

      Glad this helped Gayane. Y'know, your sketchbook is your playground, not everything in there is going to be amazing. I know it's difficult when we see all these gorgeously presented sketchbooks on Instagram and RUclips etc but it's not really the point. I think I would prefer to have a sketchbook filled with many ugly sketches (in fact I do) than zero sketches and no sketchbook at all. Be fearless, make a mess and have fun :D

    Love your videos, I always try and see what catches my eye first and work from there, it's usually something small like a postbox then it doesn't freak me out, however much time I have I just add to the drawing, it could only be 10 minutes or 2 hours but at least I've caught a memory on paper ❤️

      Thank you Cheryl! I just want you guys to see that, no matter what ability anyone is perceived at, we are all uncertain of our sketching!! Ha ha. I'm not sure it will every change. If I was confident every sketch was going to turn out perfectly then it would be boring wouldn't it?

    That was really good to watch, Taria - so much that I can relate to, right down to talking to myself to sort me out! And yes - I've been doing plein air for 25+ years and it's just the same. I'm glad you got through your 'ugly stage' (well. we know that every painting gets to that "I hate this" point at some point or another) and it came good at the end.
    I did wonder if you'd notice that bit under the door of the right hand building and breathed a sigh of relief when you did!
    Yeah - thanks for this. it's been really encouraging.

    I’m so enjoying this and how you are you talking yourself through the sketch and painting. You have inspired me to give it a try. I can draw simple shapes. I’m so envious of people that can really draw. Just found your channel and started watching a few of your videos.

    We don't learn if we aren't hard on ourselves and set high expectations for ourselves. When Van Gogh thought himself failing he'd lock himself out of the house to sleep in the freezing weather, starve himself, walk for weeks straight wearing out his shoes, hence the shoe pics, he'd beat himself about the back with a strap. Which explains exactly why a man who didn't begin to teach himself to draw until he was 27 began to see things in a new way. Nectar if you can't beat em, create a new path. I'll be honest, I thought van gogh a better artist as a child than what he ended up with. But that's just see. I see things as they are. Not as I pretend they should be.
    I don't think van gogh was crazy at all. I think he was a true believer in the Bible and the suffering Christ and was disgusted with the hypocrisy of those claiming to believe yet ignored what he perceived to be God's word. Even his own syphilis riddled self.
