Sketchbook Tour - Adventures in France

Welcome to Draw Tip Tuesday!
I've spent some time in France, to teach classes, and of course to draw a lot, so today I am flipping through the pages of my sketchbook.
I also have a fun assignment for you!

Very inspiring! I'm watching your videos piece by piece. because work and the child do not give me a sufficient period of quiet time =) At this stage of viewing, I love the spread from the Nice! Thank you!

[@joedomeier2863]

Thanks for your support Kooje from Hahnemuhle USA!

[@katekelner184]

These sketch books are wonderful! I learned a lot from them ! Thank you!

[@Blick_Art]

Love the collage elements and the sequential panels! Interesting how the comic book-style format makes one look for a narrative even if there might not necessarily be a literal story.

[@brendadavies3942]

I’ve ordered your book and can’t wait for it to arrive xxxx

[@brendadavies3942]

I am so enjoying reading your book a huge thank you xxxx

[@lynnjehle527]

Thank you so much for posting the Paris workshop drawings, which I missed because of my broken leg!

[@KoosjeKoene]

Such bad luck, I know! Wish you could have joined. I hope your leg is better.

[@ananyamaji5740]

I like your comment on the page "Paris sketchbook" and the "haussement d'épaules français"...😉 Very inspiring, thank you for your generosity!

[@KoosjeKoene]

You are so welcome!

[@floratan2890]

Love your sketchbooks and all the ideas and inspiration! Thanks for sharing

[@chiarasola826]

I love your sketchbooks! Full of style and ideas, they are lovely!

[@daltrainer]

Thanks so much for sharing your France sketchbooks!! They feel so lively and fun. I really like the idea of painting watercolor panels to start a page. That will make the blank page less intimidating, I hope. You're the best!

[@stefaniac2095]

See you tomorrow at the workshop. Yeay!!! You are my favorite urban sketcher.

[@KoosjeKoene]

😊

[@dawndavidson6062]

Amazing tour!

[@postcard9889]

Always inspiring. I especially love the yellow panels.

[@ATC.Tigerlily]

I love your art style and perspective 👏😍 thank you for sharing 🙏😊

[@DerekShinglesCoops]

Thank you for another great video Koosje. Incredibly inspiring as ever, but the panels to draw your day are brilliant! I cannot wait to do that, not just in my present sketchbook, but also as a feature of the many more to come. Thank you once again and keep up the great work 😀

[@JF-kv1gm]

So much to share with us, thank you, Koosje! Great to see that you also had the chance to collect some new ideas and techniques from other "tutors". These sketchbooks are all so wonderful. I'm definitely going to do the panels sometime this week! 😉

[@sketchbookscheming]

Love all the variety in your sketchbooks, and I want to try the panels idea!

[@susancook1617]

Thank you Koosje, lovely sketchbooks

[@graham3377]

Lots of ideas to take on from this film, Particularly like the large capital letters on your pages with writing and of course I will be pre painting panels in my books today . cheers.

[@KoosjeKoene]

I think you’d like designer Marty Gregg’s work. He uses big capital letters in a brilliant way for his journal pages.

[@jennyl2273]

Looking forward to seeing your adventures in Malta. Will you be running any online Malta workshops when you return?

[@KoosjeKoene]

Thanks! I am not planning to.

[@elenabonanni2636]
