It's been a hell year for me and it's been a joy to see you still plugging there with what's left of your white nights bless you I've been diagnosed with canser first mum passed now I'm half way through my radio therapy so painting just went out the window so sorry I didn't do your course I done the gourdy scotch book and it's lose to say the best lol I nead to learn how to draw again without the shakes anyway you have given me inspiration yet again Tara 16:42 thank you so much I will get through this as mum's house is finerly going up for sale and I will be hopefully OK and I am hoping to turn this around hear and even if it's not the best work I have ever Done bit was finished thanks Tara one day we will meet up and have a proper chat around art I've been following you since you got your white nights as I got the fill set including the matalick only becuse I saw them cheap and right time and I still have a full sett becuse I brought the right spairs so I can still use mine 😂 🤣 but I ve just not felt like it untill today thanks for your incurageing me and many others I'm shaw top lady artist 🎨
thanks Taria, this was really fun but I feel like I need a 101 basic course to add anything more. Can you recommend any online courses? I thought you had mentioned something in the past and I neglected to write it down. Thanks for all the content you share with us. This spread is so colorful and exciting!
Hi Taria. Jim from Madrid, Spain (a fellow artist and a New Yorker expat living abroad). Nice to have you over in Spain, though too bad you're going to Barcelona instead of Madrid, otherwise I would've probably join your workshop. In any case, Barcelona is a beautiful city and it's tight at the Mediterranean Sea so great beaches and usually good weather (a bit humid, though). Gaudi's Architecture is amazing and Barcelona is full of it. You can't miss the "Sagrada Familia" Cathedral (it's jaw dropping and it's nearly complete now after I can't remember how many decades since it started). Hope you have an amazing workshop over there and I'll watch this new series on Barcelona Urban Sketching from home. Since you ask in your video, just wanted to share what I usually take with me for Plein Air/Urban Sketching... I use Fountain Pens for ink & Wash (Sailor FUDE Dr Mannen 40°, TWSBI ECO , Lamy Safary , Pentel Pocket Brush (both with SketchInk waterproof ink as well as Parker Quinn Black soluable ink for ink washes), watercolor 18 color palette (similar to Art Kit but made it myself) with mainly Daniel Smith & some W&N colours, Faber-Castell 2mm Leadholders , 1 black Colour Pencil F-C Plychromo, Artgraph Watersoluble Graphite small Tin, 3 travel Brushes (Escoda Perks 10, Raphael Mop And Raphael Flat) + 2 waterbrushes (also for inking). I also usually take 2 Sketchbooks with me: Hahnemuhle Nostalgie A4 + Hahnemuhle Square (20x20 cms) Watercolor Sketchbook (100% Cotton). Maybe this info can help others too. As I said... have a great trip and a successful workshop and I'll continue watching! Cheers from Sunny Spain! 😁👍😎✌
Thanks Jim! I have been to Barcelona a few times actually! But not for a long time. Ooh the TWSBI Eco is my all time favourite fountain pen! And I also love the Pentel Pocket Brush pen. Ah thats great you also use the Hahnemuhle Nostalgie. I haven't tried the 100% cotton Hahnemuhle books yet. Thanks for all the info Jim really appreciate it! And hope someday to get to Madrid :)
Enjoyed this quick loose sketch, which I will definitely have a go at. Just starting out on my sketching journey. Looking forward to the next episode. Thanks for your guidance in these videos.

Hi Taria, love your art, your channel and how much love and work you put into it. I got your book too, which is such a GEM
I learned kwyn-nack-crah-dough-n, easier to abbreviate to ""quin" 😂 others prefer kwyn- a -crow- dough-n but that sounds wrong to me.
I have had it explained to me so many times and sometimes I say it no bother but then sometimes I overthink it and get all tongue-tied!
