Sketchbook Tour! My Royal Talens sketchbook 🎨👩‍🎨

[@changchesserly7591]

Thank you for taking the time to film and share your videos with us. You continue to inspire us to create and I am forever grateful. 💕🙏🏼💕

[@KatieMoody]

Oh thats so kind, thank you so much ☺️ It is a pleasure to share my creative journey with you! 💜

[@bloomanddot]

This was so cool to watch, Katie! I really love your google maps sketches, and your landscape compositions in general. I find that I tend to paint and draw objects so much more than scenes, because they feel quite time consuming and intimidating, so I think I will try the google method as practice.

[@KatieMoody]

Thank you so much Mihaela! I find it so helpful for referencing and really would recommend using Google maps - they can be as simple or complicated as your choose! I wonder if you could slowly start adding in other elements in to your usual drawings of objects, and that way it's less daunting than doing a big scene all at once! 💖

[@GillianCrossArt]

Lovely sketches Katie. I do like the more subtle tones.

[@KatieMoody]

Thanks Gillian 😊 I feel like I'm definitely getting more confident with the softer tones and using more texture to create depth this year!

[@KatieMoody]

[@akaMonkeyBusiness]

At 5:50 it feels like I want to go on a picnic on the left page.

[@rienvanhuisseling9084]

Great work. What is for you the difference in using Gouache and Acrylics? Thank you so much. Rien

[@KatieMoody]

Thank you so much Rien! 🤗 I find the biggest difference is the texture and consistency! I find gouache easier to work on top of but tend to go for acrylic paint when I was really thick, layered brush strokes. I also find gouache easier to mix and get paler colours, as I have a wider range of shades than acrylic 😊

[@rienvanhuisseling9084]

@@KatieMoody Thank you so much for your reply. Wish you a wonderful day 🌺

[@septembermichaud6783]

There is a nontoxic casein-based fixatif called Spectrafix!

[@KatieMoody]

Ooh thank you so much - I'll definitely look into that! 💛

[@hollybennett4149]

I love your sketchbook flip through, they are so inspiring! What shade is the blue you used for the statues in the Met sketch please?

[@KatieMoody]

Thank you so much, Holly! It's a Derwent Inktense pencil in the shade Sea Blue 1200 😊

[@hollybennett4149]

@@KatieMoody thanks Katie! I’ve just checked and I have that one, but mine is really different! My set of Inktense pencils are about 15 years old though, so maybe they’ve changed the pigment? I’ll have to buy a new one to compare 😁

[@KatieMoody]

@@hollybennett4149 Oh that's so odd, Holly! I have quite a few blues so I double checked a swatch against the page but it's definitely Sea Blue! I do find it looks different on white paper compared to the Talens sketchbook but it only comes out a bit darker. I'd love to know what you discover if you do buy a new one and can compare!

[@Skinnychelle48]

Just got the Creative Journal. Do u mainly use Neocolors in yours?

[@KatieMoody]

I use all types of media, mostly gouache and sometimes brush pens and pastels too - usually always finished with the neocolors and coloured pencils 😊

[@nelatgym1265]

do you use neocolor I or II?

[@KatieMoody]

Neocolor II 😊

[@Skinnychelle48]

Ur paper looks whiter that the others, is it?

[@KatieMoody]

The pages are off-white and quite cream coloured, I think it's just my video colour grading 😊

[@catherinebrougham9238]

I love your art and style. So colorful and cute. Just by the way: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHSXfHdna5aLp8U this is how Gouache is pronounced!

[@KatieMoody]

Thanks so much 😊
