Chat GPT told me 'How to Master Urban Sketching' - Does it work? - Lets find out!

I asked Chat GPT to give me a step by step guide to improve my urban sketching and sketch more like me, 'Toby Urban Sketch'. Instead, it told me exactly how I could MASTER urban sketching, and it pumped my ego by explaining that I (Toby) have already mastered urban sketching AND am a renowned artist.
Well, obviously SOME of this is true... ahem... so lets dive in and look at exactly what Chat GPT had to say about art and how to improve our urban sketching with simple tips.
In this video we are going to look at exactly what it said, we'll think about where Chat GPT is giving us good art advice, and where it's really not.
I'll give you my version of it's tips, and at the end I'm sure between me and ChatGPT we'll come up with a good ChatGPT

Join me on www.sketchloose.co.uk for my REAL best tips for sketching!

[@wolkensaft]

I recently broke my hand, just a few weeks after I started drawing. Now I can't draw precisely, but I learned from you that it is perfectly fine to sketch very loosely and embrace "mistakes" like wobbly lines or colours moving out of their intended boundaries. Thanks for this important lesson!

[@TobySketchLoose]

Ah so sorry to hear, wishing you a speedy recovery!!

[@mygracecottage]

Wow, what an interesting video and concept today! Quite fascinating indeed. Love your style and philosophies. The AI got a few things right and maybe some of your essence but there is only one Toby Urban Sketch ✍️! And renown! Thanks as always and cheers from Minnesota!

[@TobySketchLoose]

Haha thank you - and thank you for your very generous 'Super' as well - hugely appreciated. Funds my caffeine problem y'no ;)

[@puppydood]

I’d say you are renowned and you’ve definitely inspired many people to just get on and sketch, including me. Wobbly lines and no pressure for perfection. 😁

[@TobySketchLoose]

thank you :D lovely to hear!

[@hanichay1163]

I think you are so very artistic! Bold and unique. Also inspiring.

[@TobySketchLoose]

Thank you!!

[@claircooper7417]

Well at the end of the day, AI cant draw a human heart and hand. I have surely learnt alot from you Toby and have been inspired. Thank you

[@nellielodders785]

I totally agree with the conclusion. You’re my number one inspiration in combination with my own little interpretation. Thank you ever so much!

[@TobySketchLoose]

Thank you for a lovely comment!

[@lizohagan8233]

Hi, I’m a new subscriber and I’m having great fun watching some of your videos ! I love your art style and the way you explain things so clearly. Thanks.

[@TobySketchLoose]

Hi Liz, pleasure to have you aboard

[@lindathaxton1994]

Great video - glad you expanded on the statement! Love your style & have learned a lot from you. Thank you for your time & talents 🙏 19:30

[@TobySketchLoose]

My pleasure Linda

[@awatercolourist]

There will always be an outlet for art in our sketchbooks. AI can never take that from us; it’s an urge that we get and need to vent and only picking up a brush and a piece of paper will vent that urge. 😊

[@TobySketchLoose]

I agree 💯

[@micahneveu4633]

@@TobySketchLoose I'm coming in from a very different direction. I'm designing a card-based RPG and as such, it has a TON of art to do. I started with AI art for placeholders (but decided it should be placeholder only), then I started commissioning pieces from Fiverr, but still, none of it matched what I really wanted (and I had spent a solid chunk of money). I tried my hand at a single character card and then my wife bought me an iPad with Procreate on it. From watching YOUR videos, I have decided to draw ALL the art over in a loose watercolor urban sketch style. I just want to say, that you've given me the confidence to actually just do it and I'm so happy! Thank you for your inspiration and the permission to just do it. Yay!

[@TobySketchLoose]

@@micahneveu4633 that's incredible, what a project to take on! Good luck 🤞🍀

[@calsannepotgieter4200]

This was an interesting video. I enjoyed when you showed the watercolour techniques. I had noticed that when you paint you get a very different effect to many other water colour artists I follow. Nice to see how that is achieved.

[@TobySketchLoose]

thanks!! glad it was interesting :)

[@debbyleiper8367]

Definitely inspired me to give it a go and allow my own style to develop 👍

[@josephfiore2843]

Great video! Thanks very much

[@TobySketchLoose]

Pleasure

[@fabiotel]

Great!

[@tinglestingles]

The answer I got "Toby Urban Sketch is a hypothetical artist, and there isn't specific information about his sketching technique as of my knowledge cutoff in September 2021. However, assuming Toby Urban Sketch specializes in urban sketching, which typically involves drawing and painting cities, towns, and villages, here are some general tips to help you sketch in the urban style:"

[@TobySketchLoose]

haha yes indeed!

[@FrancesFraser-wl1je]

Very interesting. I can't recall you ever using an eraser. Loved both the colour demonstrations. Thanks again.

[@TobySketchLoose]

I think I do have an eraser... Somewhere

[@patsymccown2766]

So awesome!

[@TobySketchLoose]

:)

[@monicagrund483]

Wow, this was so interesting, lots of fundamental tips in a nutshell! What brush did you use in the video?

[@TobySketchLoose]

It's a Jackson's mop - check out urbansketch.co.uk/supplies - listed up there 🙏

[@mygracecottage]

Thanks!

[@TobySketchLoose]

Thanks so much, as I said in response to your other comment it's hugely appreciated!

[@martinwebb3394]

You're underselling yourself Toby - 31,000 followers makes you fairly renowned - I bet Picasso didn't have that many ;-)

[@TobySketchLoose]

I've got a big family though, probably cuts it down by at least half of those followers 😂

[@doreenstrachan1119]

I don't think you can follow your style without actually watching your videos. A description isn't enough. I also noticed you have a Windsor and newton 25 percent cotton watercolour pad. Is it any good. Does the 25 percent cotton make any difference?

[@TobySketchLoose]

Cotton is more absorbant - realistically, for this style, no it doesn't make much differnece.

[@judithmcilwee]

I look your sketches I have to trace to paint could only dream to draw accurately

[@TobySketchLoose]

It just takes a little time, I personally don't have a problem with anyone tracing to paint.

[@donnabuttons1]

How do you go about asking chat gpt something?

[@TobySketchLoose]

Via an interfacing app - I use IFTTT (which also automates some of my social media)

[@donnabuttons1]

@TobySketchLoose - Artist and Urban Sketcher thank you for your prompt reply Toby 😊 All very intriguing...🤔😳😃

[@pfie01]

In the video you deduct that chatgpt is "following" you. This is not the case. There is your website which contains a lot of text about your art that chatgpt may have ingested. And all of your videos have an automatically generated transcript - just press the Breadcrumps right of the thanks button. This text may also be a source of your own words that the gpt model may have ingested upon training.

[@TobySketchLoose]

Very true, thanks for the correction

[@awatercolourist]

You don’t use a pencil, do you?

[@TobySketchLoose]

Rarely, sometimes for dogs people etc

[@awatercolourist]

@@TobySketchLoose Thanks. It’s just that ChatGPT said that you used pencil.

[@consueloyoung4484]

Copying you Toby?!?!, that’s impressive!!!. You are as unique as crosshatching is to stippling!. I very much enjoyed this video, it gets us closer to understanding that your main interest is to enjoy yourself. By the way, you have very long fingers Toby!. 🫣

[@consueloyoung4484]

I meant impossible (hate spellcheck) 🤬

[@TobySketchLoose]

Hehe thanks 🙏👍
