I Can't Get Enough of This Sketching Process!

[@GabGirl56]

LOVED the watercolor sketches! Incredible work! Yes, please do watercolor sketches of landscapes and still lifes? That would be wonderful! Thank you!

[@barriereid9244]

When I saw the white going on the paper I thought WOW! No way! Then it faded to calm. Excellent technique. Next time I am in town I will look for the brush.

[@mushiArt]

I’ve been doing quick little portrait studies of the folks in the nursing home where I volunteer. They LOVE it! This will help fill out these little studies for them. Could use this technique for drawing ANYTHING! Thank you, once again!

[@repeat_defender]

That is so sweet! I love it. I have a real soft spot in my heart for the elderly, and imo we don't respect and treat them well in the US.

[@MicahBuzanANIMATION]

That is such a lovely way to use your skills :)

[@carolinewithers1647]

I know their character and their life experiences are all over their faces. I'd imaging observing and sketching their hands would also be a reflection of the person and their life.

[@josefschiltz2192]

This brings back memories of the way I used to sketch on toned paper many years ago. Since I developed a tremor I really miss it.

[@zoeuphoria]

Keep going with it, try and embrace the unique style you will get. I bet people will still love your sketching x

[@josefschiltz2192]

@@zoeuphoria Many thanks for the encouragement. I can manage to create imagery digitally, but it's the feel of actual pen, brush and paper/canvas that I miss.

[@marilynromans2546]

What a pleasurable experience it was to see such talent in action. Thank you so much for the opportunity.

[@t2terri]

Sure … please do companion tutorial of a landscape! U r just a wealth of information! I so enjoy your tutorials! Thanks for sharing😊

[@karenturner-cf7vq]

I am learning from your demonstrations. I draw and paint. This has given me the inspiration I need.

[@seahorse5689]

Yes, a landscape would be lovely!

[@ralphherrick596]

Landscape thumb nail would be fantastic. Your talent is great. I need to try this. Thanks

[@maureengale1657]

Yes, to landscape thumbnails using this sketching method. Thanks. Great video!

[@ashleyevans3330]

Brilliant! You truly are a fabulous artist!

[@PaulaScardamalia]

Yes, please. Demo of this technique with landscapes. Thank you.

[@maryanharrell561]

Loved it, Steve!

[@winterillust]

i find this style of painting so intriguing. have to try it out for myself some time.

[@grahamrowland969]

Yes please, more of this, in anything you want to with a little of what's going through your mind whilst drawing, it's truly superb.

[@dian6087]

Love this!!! Yes, more landscapes using this method would be great.

[@ljschlag271]

Love it. Yes, would like to see a landscape sketch.

[@aliciamolloy5948]

Thank you Steve, great video you are awesome. Yes please love to see some landscapes.

[@donnagoode6923]

wow i tried this and fell in love right away, thanks !

[@OldeLeshi]

I started doing this recently as well when I was returning to anatomy studies and found myself not wanting to use graphite or charcoal but not wanting the unforgiving nature of jet black ink brushes, so I just started using a brush pen with dried up patches of gouache. Now I just do it on the regular, or over top of line. And it's a great way to get a lot more use out of dried up gouache that might not be ideal for something more serious but that would also be a waste to just wash off a palette and squeeze more from tubes just for the sake of some studies. Thick toned tan paper is probably my favorite thing to work on.

[@chriskeable730]

Yes please, landscape and bird studies too would be good. Thanks

[@roxanaromano7340]

Thank you for your lesson. Lesson about scetching landscapes would be great

[@rodeastell3615]

Excellent ... I have everything you used .... just never never used them like that. I certainly will be. Thank you so much.

[@mynaturediaries4402]

Really enjoyed this technique…great idea! Would love to see landscapes as well…thank you!

[@mariabankston9337]

I’ve never seen this technique! You are so talented! Thank you for sharing this!

[@amberdreams_0]

Landscape thumbnails are great but I actually love seeing you draw people for a change. I've done a kind of drawing with a brush before, but not often, and not on toned paper - it's really cool.

[@rleeelliott4597]

You are a true master Steve, thank you for all your lessons.

[@BA-ho9mm]

MARAVILLOSO. Muchas gracias!

[@addasenta]

Thank you, I love this process and will definitively try it. Would love to see you do some landscape sketches.

[@ΚάποιοςΑγνωστος-χ1ξ]

Great technique/process! i've had those water-brushes for years and hadn't found a good way to use them. Thank you for your video ❤ hehe couple of hours later i went and dug my water-brushes out and tried your technique. It worked better than i was expecting. I already fashioned a tiny kit out of a pill box with black and white quache and made a small sketchbook out of coloured paper. Thanks again.😄

[@dlars56]

Yes definitely please do a couple landscape sketches using the waterbrush process. I would love to see it, as I'm struggling with this in my own sketches. Thank you for your consideration in this.

[@ZarahMcIntosh]

That was great! 👍

[@TheSpinmonkey]

Yes, landscapes, please!! I learn so much from watching you work in your videos. Thank you for making them!

[@carolelegault801]

Love to see a landscape example.

[@ralphcrosby9622]

Thank you for this useful content.

[@falconette8911]

Would really appreciate a video like this for landscapes! Landscapes are a weakness of mine I'd really like to improve on and I love this method as a way to ease into them with a new perspective

[@scootmcgoot570]

Thats dazzling sir! Ive been absolutely intimidated with watercolors so ive avoided them. Im soaking up alot watching you. Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us

[@jrousseau66]

I just ordered 4 of them. I love your videos; I've been watching since I started with watercolors a couple of years ago. Your work is beautiful - what I aspire to. Thank you so much for all of them!!

[@ingridfreeman3126]

Your work is amazing!! Id love to see a landscape using this technique 😊

[@paulappswildlifeart]

I have played over the years with all these things Steve, until now never thought of bringing them together for mark-making in this way. thanks for sharing, cheers Paul

[@dneel468]

Would love to see a landscape sketch like this! Thank you Steve for the fun video.

[@MrsBeasleys1111]

Thank you! Very cool!

[@clairebureau5881]

Thanks Steve. What a great idea! I will definitely try this!

[@hopelessatusernames]

Love this. I'm trying to get back into art and recover my confidence lost since adolescence by not practising. Feel a bit intimidated by the (expensive) watercolours I bought and feel like I was always much more of a natural drawer anyway, so this might be exactly what I need to try.

[@jimhartlageart5665]

Very nice. Yes, please do some landscapes with this technique.

[@Calme1918]

Great sketching. Would like to try waterbrush. Yes would like to see that process with landscape

[@athieliagriffin7957]

Your tinted graphite and watersoluable charcoal would also work great. Just use a spritzer to keep them juicy. Thanks for sharing.

[@davidallsebrook8523]

That is inspiring! Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to try it.

[@keithroy9217]

Yes please on the landscape demo! Excellent demo on this release. Thank you.

[@ginistewart9636]

I love this!

[@alicereed5368]

Yes please for the landscape😊

[@AtomicRakshasi]

I use fine liners on any medium-toned papers and get so excited when it's time for the highlights to make that drawing pop! Never occurred to me that I could do the same with a brush and WC, and it looks a lot harder!

[@followyourbrush]

I’ve been working on more sketches. I really like this idea.

[@sarahackland6103]

This was great! Such and inspirational and I definitely would love to see a landscape with this technique. Thanks Steve! 🙂

[@starr-starr]

I would really appreciate seeing some landscapes done this way. The sketches are amazing as always.

[@OliviaAndOlive]

I love watching your videos a lot. Thank you for sharing your expertise. You're a very talented artist and mentor.

[@sidegigcrafts]

You are so incredibly talented to make this look easy! Wow!! Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us!

[@edzejandehaan9265]

I would sure be interested in landscapes with this technique. I have such a waterbrush laying around around, Not used it very much. But I've gotten into watercolours via my drawing hobby, and also been doing a couple of landscapes lately, so this is a good fit for what I'm experimenting with myself at the moment.

[@alicejump2290]

As always, learn so much from watching you work! Still using techniques from a nest demonstration! Thank you!

[@Sherlock2022]

Great video, I would love to see this process being used for landscapes. Thanks for sharing.

[@lindagerhard8381]

Love this process. Yes, please demonstrate using this fine water brush for landscape sketches!.

[@paulinehughes5325]

Thanks, love the effect I will definitely be trying this Derwent pen*

[@annettecolgrove580]

I gave this a try and I love it! Thank you for sharing all your tips! They are fun, and I like the results, even though I'm not a watercolorist, and not strong on portraits. But this I can do!

[@cluek9780]

Thanks for the intro to a reservoir brush…. Will check that out! Reminded that drawing on a toned background it’s easy to use too much white accent

[@owingsart]

Masterful work as always my friend. I love anytime I can see you in action Steve.

[@mindofwatercolor]

Thanks so much buddy!

[@glynstimpson]

Great video like portraits

[@deejay2838]

love watching you do the people, its so relaxing and I have a hard time with faces, so its always interesting and fun to see them take shape . Thanks for sharing it.

[@pjlewisful]

OK...I've seen most of your videos. I think this one is my favorite! It would work fantastically for fashion illustration, I feel.

[@thissunchild]

Bloody amazing! I must try this

[@sweethomes674]

Excellent 😊

[@kathleengarness1660]

This is wonderful!

[@ErinEnoArt]

This is a great method! It reminds me of my college life drawing class (fromMANY) years ago when we drew with neutral coloured pencil crayons on toned paper. I’m going to by a water brush for sure! Thank you so much!

[@AmazinGraceXOXO1]

This is brilliant! I can’t believe I never thought of this!

[@akaErma]

Both artists are go-to references for master studies for me. I love how dynamic they are with form, color, and stroke. And drawing with a brush is always a fun exercise.

[@joannhenderson7395]

You are so amazing with your drawing and painting skills. I could feel the connection to the man in my heart that you were drawing. This is how I know when a piece of art is really good. I always enjoy you and your videos. Thank you.

[@katscreativelife]

Loved watching the sketch and paired with the music. This fellow looks like my Dad who passed away a few years ago. It was so lovely to see his visage slowly appear! ❤

[@rachelhaley-katz5858]

I love this! Such a great idea!

[@windywednesday4166]

Wow, I am blown away! I love how you are using watercolor for sketching. What a brilliant idea.

[@eileengoldenberg270]

Interesting, that would work with Urban Sketching as well. Thanks Steve!

[@mindofwatercolor]

You bet!

[@serjerin]

So amazing. Loving this sketching technique as well. I didn’t know they made water brushes with that fine a tip.

[@Mr.Booeedy]

A great job

[@Escherlife]

Brilliant❤️

[@aleidadiaz2261]

I loved this video. Please do more! I think your portraits are so skilled and appear so easy.

I love this. I need to get back to my sketchbooks and try this. Thanks for the demo. 😍

[@bordeauxcarol]

Loved this technique and yes! Landscape thumbnails please :D

[@dgwarchitect]

Would love to see this technique demonstrated with thumbnails, landscapes and plain air. Enjoy all your videos.

[@zdzislawaprzyborska5653]

This is mindblowing😮 I have never seen such effect with gouache

[@GcOGc01981]

Great video. My unartful husband was spellbound. I He always comments about Reece. He can't quite understand why he's there. Maybe I don't explain it well enough. I don't have Gouache, but found the Holbein ones (love Holbein BTW) 18 ~ 5 ml on Amazon for $43.00. Thanks again for the great video. You are my inspiration. As far as I am concerned you are the best artist on KZbin. I learn so much from you. Thank you Steve. God bless you and yours.

[@mindofwatercolor]

Reese is my skull anatomy model but I started including him in videos so I wouldn't take myself so seriously, something way too many art instructors do.

[@GcOGc01981]

@@mindofwatercolor I agree. Keep up the great work so love your work Brother Steve if we never meet on this earth we will meet in the sky when God blows his trumpet.

[@paulagarrett3758]

So great! Second time watching this. Yes please to landscapes using this technique!

[@ThomiBMcIntyre]

Great demo! I do a version of this - I use diluted ink in the brush, which simplifies the process in the field
