Loose ink and watercolor sketching for beginners lReal-time tutorial

[@michaelyolch79]

"...but rather to capture an IMPRESSION of the scene that we have right here." A small statement that introduces a great deal of freedom to us who are perfectionists. Thank you!

[@cluster3859]

Exactly

[@lizpokorski6163]

I agree! I’m still trying to loosen up

[@XxXLesaXxX]

I agree completely , i dont create art because it wont be perfect, "i cant draw a building i cant draw straight lines" watching this video is so helpful ❤

[@sairiaru]

I don't understand much about art, but every single time I see these kinds of loose ink and watercolor paintings, they all seem like the perfect art to me. Nothing can top the vibe this one gives, I wish I was able to draw & ink like that

[@danielboyle3559]

You can

[@ch1pdrawz]

It takes a while, but practice a lot, study things that you want and things you don't want, maybe you'd want to draw things you've never thought to draw! You will absolutely be able to draw like this!

[@DorothyKiley]

You can…just start with doodling and then watercolor over it. So fun. Try.

[@paulidevoss7249]

Give it a try and don’t judge yourself too harshly. The more you do the better you will become

[@redfo3009]

I agree 😊

[@dreamwoodsbutterfly]

OMG, I can't believe I sketched along with you! I can't draw to save my life! Wow, thank you so much for such a clear and concise and patiently lead tutorial! I am blown away!

[@JilleeArts]

Lovely to hear that!💗☺️

[@paulidevoss7249]

You probably can draw, and with more practice you will build confidence. If you love it just do it!

[@Iceblu511]

As a beginner to watercolour, I found your style so relaxing and I sketched and painted along with you and it was a great experience. It was so good to be able to go at a pace that allowed me to follow along with everything. Feel so happy with my little piece! A lot of practice in store but I can't wait to keep going and see my skills improve.

[@mikesimmons8762]

I just stopped by and watched you make a nice painting that started my day in a peaceful mood.

[@JilleeArts]

Glad to hear that!😊

The astounding result of adding the shadows under the patio awning was a eureka moment for me. So talented, so peaceful… so appreciated ❤

[@harishhabit]

I've been struggling with perfectionism (living in abusive environment since childhood) prob ±40y until I got stage 3 cancer in 2020. It's a wake-up call n a turning point. This style of drawing I believe is a good practice to unlearn perfectionism. Inspiring ❤

[@laurastutt3442]

I’ve struggled to make progress in any art style or medium my whole life because I’ve always had a very scratchy hand, both in handwriting and drawing. I’d see people making these beautiful clean strokes and would get so frustrated I couldn’t replicate that. In the last two days I’ve done two of these sketches from around my neighbourhood and I love the result. I always liked watercolour but never paired it with ink before. I finally feel enthusiastic and keen to create more. Thank you so much

[@harmonised8353]

This is one of my favourite ink and wash videos! I love the ink first/paint last approach, super fluid style, laid back paint application, its gorgeous! Lovely stuff!!

[@suzannw9098]

This video is so helpful for me. I love watercolors with ink. Your descriptions of your thought process and approach really help me learn how to paint and sketch.

[@SeasonedTravelrs]

Sketched and painted alongside you, really enjoyed the experience and enjoying learning this new style! Would really love more beginner and real time videos. Keep up the incredible, inspiring work!

[@JilleeArts]

Thank you very much, yes I shall work on more beginner videos!💗

I used to draw when I was much younger, but gave it and all my hobbies up as I pursued my career. Now that I am approaching retirement, I have begun to explore my creative side again. I was feeling so frustrated because I kept starting and stopping, but this was the first piece I actually saw all the way through and love it. After spending decades decomposing complex problems into digestible pieces, you are bang-on when you say start with something easy. Thanks so much for your tutorials!

[@stj4019]

Thanks for the nice tutorial - I learned a lot ! For the „unknown“ word I have a little tip for you : you could start with „n“ in the middle of the word and center it according to the sign/building , then continue writing the 3 remaining letters on each side…

[@JilleeArts]

Thank you! That is a good tip, I shall try that and see if it works for me 😄

[@christinechyo369]

Your method and teaching is so soothing and gives me confidence! Makes it feel very do-able for someone who struggles with perfect lines/work. Thank you!!

[@JilleeArts]

Thank you!❤️ white buildings are not as easy as they look 🤔

[@karinhansen5130]

Thank you very much, Jillee. I sketched and painted while watching, and I learned heaps. I do it a second time now ;-) Practicing is the key for me, and I am enjoying the learning.

[@ice.creammel]

Hi Jelee, I really follow this real time sketching from scratch until finish, and this is my first watercolor sketching! the result is beautiful, thanks for your detail and your dedication, please keep it up!❤

[@susantippett3087]

I really enjoyed your video. I sketched and painted along with you (with lots of pauses). I like that you explain in detail what you're doing and the colors you are using. At the end I was very happy with my little sketch and am looking forward to sketching again with more of your videos. Thanks!

[@elektrikshoks]

this video was exactly what I needed in my journey. thank you for keeping the process so light and loose and happy. will definitely be re-creating to learn this process from my own reference photos. ❤

[@MrMartinRose]

I just started coloring a little paper made house for my granddaughter she will have to assemble. I found some aquarelle pencils I never used before. I never made any drawing and there is a great lack of imagination and artistic performance (My English is bad as I'm a German). But the little paper model looks quite nice so I wanted to find something showing how to work with this technique. So I found you video. First of all I'm completely relaxed from watching, I fell very fine! And thanks for all the helpful information. And I would like to have at least a little bit of your talent. All the best to you

[@LeeRichardson808]

Really cool to watch the whole piece come together with your commentary. Drawing seems like magic to me, I hope to learn with practice!

[@alisyarazman]

[@MamaTomasu]

I concur. From the vid thumbnail I thought it was so cute and charming. When I saw the reference photo once the vid started, I was surprised how simple and mundane the actual location was. I def wouldn’t have thought to sketch it. And I def wouldn’t have been able to add so much character to the sketch as this artist has done 😊

I really enjoyed this tutorial! I appreciate how you show it’s alright to take artistic license and modify the scene to be more pleasing to your own mind’s eye…not including the cars…adding longer shadows…etc. It really helps that you explain your color choices…the whys and hows. Just a suggestion-you may want to try taking your phone or camera off of auto focus to avoid the distracting focus and blur each time you bring your hand into the frame. Just set the focus onto the sketchbook and no one will notice if your hand is a bit blurry as it moves around. Your calm, gentle voice and instruction are very encouraging and help to take the stress out of sketching! Thank you for all your hard work and effort!!! ~Pam
