5:53 All your sketches are wonderful. But what really captivates me is your gorgeous fountain pen drawings and marbled color effects you capture with watercolor. Absolutely mesmerizing! I do hope to see a little tutorial on how you do those someday. 😊 ✒️ 🎨 Remarkable!
Sylvia, Thank you! The marbled effected (granulation) you see on the pen was achieved by using Lunar Black by Daniel Smith Watercolors. Got to check it out!
What a great sketchbook tour. Thank you for sharing. At the workshop there was never time to see them. Now, I'm a happy camper. Your work is so beautiful, I could easily spend days browsing your sketchbooks.
Mayela, YES! Wish I had more time to share the books in the workshop but it's important not take time away from workshop participants having ample time to sketch and paint. Happy Sketching!
Of the sketch art that I have seen on RUclips, I love yours because of the life you bring to your art through your use of value. Your work sparkles with light. Thank you for sharing your world. God Bless.
I also wanted to add that your style and the way you see everything you put in your art is amazing. You got my paints out. Thank you. Would love to meet you.
Phyllis, Thank you for the kind words. I teach workshops across the US and abroad. Perhaps we’ll get to meet one day. If interested you can always check my workshop schedule on my website www.swensonsart.net
What are wonderful sketching drips you’ve down. I really love them, and you know what, I have been following you for years, learning your techniques that you taught on videos. Thank you for sharing, hoping that one day I can join your lessons.
Thanks alot for the tour through yoursketchbooks. It's great to hear your excitement about Barcelona even weeks after you'd been there. And it shows in your sketches. I also loved the one of your fountain pen!
Totally beautiful and inspiring. How did you do the lizard on front of your journal? I am going to take one of your workshops. Have been looking for one I can make it to. Thanks so much for sharing.
I love your style, detailed yet loose, I wish I could achieve that look. And your colors really sparkle. What type of watercolor paints are your favorites? Thank you for sharing your spectacular paintings with us, I could look at these forever.

You are one of the best watercolor artist I saw on RUclips, love your work! What is the brown ink you use for your sketch? Can you do a video about your favorite art supplies? Thank you!

I love your style of drawing! Thank you for sharing! It might be just me, but my volume was all the way up, and ou sounded like you were on the other side of the room! Weird....
I noticed you are using the larger Stillman & Birn. do you like it as much as your own sketchbook? Will you continue to use all three? I really love how your images tell a story of your day. And, I really love your use of color. It is one of the things I like best about your work.
Cynthia, Yes... I will continue to use "my sketchbooks". I like having a wide assortment of papers in one sketchbook (pastel, drawing, tinted, watercolor...). The Stillman & Birn's are great...I love the Beta, soft covers, sizes. Happy Sketching!
It's one of those sticky situations...it depends on who you're talking to. In my video I am more concern with describing a region of Europe. Hope you enjoyed the artwork.
Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! Thankyou.
Thank you😊
I like the peaceful observative feel of your sketchbooks that are so pleasingly designed.

Wish I'd been sketching a few decades ago when I was in Spain. I may have to use my photos to create a journal.
Karen, It's never too late to memories to paper.
sounds and looks beautiful! Because of you I use stillman & birn, so thank you!
That good to know. Thanks!

Catalonia is like a real life cartoon

The sound is fine on my phone, computer... Sorry you can't hear it.

How do you decide on which sketchbook to use? The small one in your bag. Your handmade book and larger S&B book are interchangeable?
what sketchbook do you use to make your stunning journal?
The sketchbook is a Stillman & Birn, Beta, 10x8
Funny how title say spain/catalonia, like if it was a different country. It's not.
