Ian you literally saved my life!! I was in a bad situation and had a severe opiate addiction. I remember seeing your methods and your videos and I bought a pack of gray tombows, a schmincke watercolor palette as well as some fabriano fat pad hot press paper. I got my life together and now I am painting everyday as well as watching your videos. It saved me. It really did. I had a new healthy habit to focus on. urban Sketch is beautiful and inspirational. Thank you so much. Your definitely the best urban sketcher there is.
Wow, this is so heartwarming 🥺🙏🏼 Ian is truly one of the best urban sketchers and teachers and we are more than happy and proud to have him at artistravel! 💙
I just loved that so much!!. Thank you again for all your awesome tips. You have no idea how much I appreciate what you do. You really are so inspirational and you make art making sooooo much fun. Your a true blue legend Ian. Good on ya 👍✍️🎨
Ha! Hohenzollern Brücke -:) I grew up in Cologne during much of my childhood .. now am following your channel from Vancouver, Canada - love your quirky colourful style -
Perspective... if you are able to visualize and then put on paper perspective, shadows, etc... you can basically use whatever colors you want. Ian is able to do this.. most of us cannot!
I've seen some of your drawings on the book and now I can see every single process of this episode of live sketching. It's really inspiring! Thank you Ian Fennelly
Great demo, Ian. Good review for those of us who have done some of your on-line and in-person workshops. Tip for anybody watching this: the watercolor doesn’t go well over top of the Tombow work. So if punching up the colours as he did towards the end, avoid the felt pen areas. I often do the same at end of the sketch where I want to emphasize some of the interesting colour areas.
I mean this in the most positive way possible. The way you turn scribble into such an expressive/impressive piece of art is insane. I could pick one of your pieces out of a thousand others. Every time I watch you I get out my paints. I could never be as loose as you are and get away with it! I’m a little bit envious! Cheers!
Ian hi there are the tombow brush pens you use water soluable or permanent please. I’m in the art shop and I don’t know which ones to get thank you love your work you’re awesome👍🤣🎨🖌
Loved this Ian…a reminder to go to paint earlier rather than AFTER the linework! Which other towns in Germany did you visit on this trip.(I know it was 2019)
Ian, please tell us what paper to use. When I do graphite pencil portraits, after about 6-7 years that paper turns yellow. It just made me sick. So if I get into your style, please give a name of the correct paper to use. Thank you! February 22, 2023
Sehr schön ! ich hätte bei der ersten Brücke noch das "Dach" weiter hochgezogen bis zum höchsten Punkt. Wie bei der zweiten Brücke ! Das sieht so einwenig abgebrochen aus. In der Mitte beim Dom noch ein paar Vögel für die Atmosphäre und fertig ! ;-) Grüße teddynash.
First of all, I really love the colors. But the Image of the bridge is not working at all. From your point of view the arches are a dense structure with various layers of elements which give an impression of a robust sturdy building. This is missing completely. Just compare the masses (dark areas) between the photo and the picture. I so not vote for a photographic Image, but the overall impression should become clear which it doesn't.
I'm so sorry but the point of urban sketch is to catch the overall personality of the subject. He has achieved that 100%. It's not supposed to be boring and uptight like most artists work. 🙄
I explained why the personality of the subject is not depicted in my point of view. Unfortunately you didn't answer these arguments.But it is nice to see that the artist has got admirers speaking for him. At this point I think a further discussion will not show any results or insights so I am out.
I bet you're the kind of person who tells the chef at a nice dinner party how the food didn't quite meet your standard 😂 Nobody cares about your opinion, go make your own art.

Diese erste Skizze mit den tombows... schon ein fertiges Kunstwerk... ich mag diesen lockeren Duktus wirklich sehr!
Isso! Ian hats einfach drauf!
This is great. Thank you, Ian.
Glad you liked it!
Thank you for sharing your process. Love the vibrant feel you get.

Awesome and inspiring !!! What kind of paper are you using ?
Hi! Thats a hot-pressed Fabriano Watercolor Sketchbook, 300g/m2 :-)
