  • A great sketchbook idea for beginners or anyone trying to get started sketching. I'm using Caran d'Ache Neocolor II water soluble wax pastels, and Stabilo Woodys to draw fast sketches from reference pictures. Sketch along with me as I complete 2 minute drawings of 5 different landscapes.
    I had a lot of fun with this and I hope you enjoy watching the full process.

      Thank you so much! I use parchment paper in my other sketchbooks. I think it just slipped my mind when I started. You’re absolutely right though. Parchment or wax paper works great and it’s thinner than using paper, so it won’t bulk up your sketchbook too much. 😊👍

    Respectful suggestion for the next one. Is it too much trouble to leave the reference image on screen while you are tweaking the pictures and talking about each one in detail at the end? It would be so helpful. ❤
    For me there were all difficult 😅 cause I dont do landscapes, but among all, the seascape was the easiest and the most difficult was the one with the fence.
    Overall a really good practice.

    I just discovered you and this video, so I thought I'd just jump right in. The only thing close at hand was my small sketchbook and a black pen, so I drew rectangles (roughly 3"x4"), sketched quickly, and wrote down color notes outside the rectangles. I'll take some watercolor to them tomorrow and see what they end up looking like. This was fun and a great exercise. I may try the entire video again someday with watercolor pencils. Thanks!

    Beyond the’ which did you like best’, this was very ….what’s the word…*POW*, for me! The biggest takeaway for me was ….Get the horizon and basic shapes down first!!!You hear that all the time, but you SHOWED me! I am so going to do this whole session today. I loved your skies….and noticed you putting blue around the clouds on the desert scene and saw how that looked like clouds when you wet it. I loved how the cactus seemed shaded on one side (the original line) after you wet it. I loved how the flowers in the house scene looked too. Loved the yellow halo around the center. A quick way to grab the impression of the original. This was all very enlightening for me. Thank you so much Heather. By the way…my favorite was the trees and fence down the lane. Another jog for me…stop making all my tree trunks shades of brown and black!!

    It's very fun to watch you paint. Suggestion in your layouts, watch your tangents on your horizon lines. Because you brought the reeds up to but not crossing your horizon line on your seascape, your horizon cuts the layout almost in half. Tangents are what you try to avoid when you draw. Good exercises. It enjoyed them.

    My favorite is the one with the cactuses! I stumbled on to this video as it came up as a watch next option, im glad i watched it :) at first i didnt like the 2 minute limit since tbh i felt like you didnt have enough time to get any where with any of them really, but after watching till the end i think YOU changed my mind haha. I have never seen these crayons before, i actually didnt know watercolorcrayons exited. I was quite shocked at how it looks when adding water to them, i guess thats when my mind changed about the 2 minutes.
    Sure you/i could get much further if we add time but that would also defeat the purpose. Getting that "oh i wanna finish it, i wanna do more"-feeling is much more important than making them look great.
    I did not paint along, but i think i will the next time. but i think i need to buy either watercolor crayons or pencils first cause i think i'd enjoy doing it with that more than with acrylic or oilpaint. Im gonna go watch what other videos you have now :)

    The branches of the first tree in the one with the fence and trees looked beautifulll! They had great shape and they looked so real!! Also, I think it would be cool if you changed this up a little bit by using a different art supply like colored pencils or something, depending on what you have and if you even wanted to😊

    My favourite before the water was the first but then I added water and my paper refused to blend out the black and dark brown I used for the waterline and edges on the stream. But in the last one I had learned for whatever reason black and brown just wasn’t blending out for me so I worked out how to work around it and I loved how my cactus turned out. Thank you for sharing this was really great to work alongside of you throughout your process and I am subscribing for future videos. ❤❤

    What a cool video! I wanted another minute to lay down the basics of some of these! It showed me how you can lay down the composition in just a few minutes. I love how you narrated your thoughts as you went. It helped me learn The thought process. I also thought about how to layer the complementary color on top of the bright color sloto mute it. Although I love watching art videos, I don’t draw. But you Inspired me to try this!

    For me, the first one was the hardest because i was focusing too much on getting the good color (i was doing the challenge with alcool marker). The one that surprise me the most was the last one. I saw the picture and I was like "what are all those colors", then the timer started and I just keep going and im very happy at the result after 2 min.
    LOVE doing time challenge ! Especially along with someone. Thank you.
    Last thing, I know because of youtube DMCA stuff you cannot do this challenge, but one i like to do is put a music playlist of song i like on random and I have the time of the song to sketch something. I got a couple of nice mockup doing that !

      Thanks for sketching with me! I’m glad you kept going! It’s really interesting how having a time limit forces you to be decisive and not over think. The more you do it, the better you’ll get at it. You’ll see it affecting your work without the timer also.

    I love warm-ups like this.
    I would like to a suggestion, especially for complicated subjects like the landscapes (or the figure for that matter).
    From my experience doing 50 drawings in 4hrs (a favorite exercise of mine - 4.8 minutes per drawing), since you are using such a small time frame, and going back in later, don't worry about colour. Think line and tone. For me it is compressed charcoal, water soluble graphite, fountain pen, or reed pen and ink. If I have time, I go back in with water and create a basic value structure. Occasionally I revisit the sketch with watercolour or markers. Watercolourist Charles Reid, just did a quick, almost blind, contour drawing in pencil or pen. Just something to try.

    • @artbyheather
      @artbyheather  2 месяца назад

      Wow! That sounds like a real workout! I’m sure you learn a lot doing it that way. I did think about doing them in a monochrome way, to take the color picking out of it. You’re right, not having to think about color would allow you more time for value and structure. Maybe I’ll try that next time. Thanks for the suggestion! 😊👍

    What is the best paper that you have found for watersoluable pencils, graphite or neo?

    • @artbyheather
      @artbyheather  2 месяца назад

      I think as long as it’s mixed media or watercolor paper it should work well. I don’t have a lot of experience with different papers, but I have found that I like using paper with less texture for water soluble materials. I think it blends out better with the water and leaves less marks behind. I hope that helps. 😊
