Sketching Food, People and Atmosphere at a Cafe 🎨 Ink and Watercolors in Public

Hi everyone, today I'm sharing with you a bright sunny Sunday afternoon in winter when I went to a favorite cafe for coffee and cake, and creative inspirations! I captured an older couple and the landscape outside the window in my sketchbook. Please watch the video until the end for my full process composing this sketchbook page using pen and watercolors.
🎨 Materials I used:
- Sailor's fude fountain pen
- Noodler's Brown 41 Ink (to fill the fountain pen)
- Mungyo watercolors
- Etchr Mix-Media A4 size Landscape Sketchbook
- Holbein Water Brush (large tip)
- Holbein water brush (medium tip)
🎨 I'm teaching online classes every week. Check them out the newest 2024 classes in my Ko-Fi Shop:

Patty-I loved this video. I'll have to remember your process when I'm able to sketch people. I'm not there yet. 😊 Always a pleasure.

So talented, If I drew with an ink pen I would have so many scribbles I would have to start over.

I’m getting braver about sketching people in a cafe or waiting room, many thanks for your inspiring videos and narration! 😊

I very much enjoy watching you create and hearing your commentary. Your explanations are so helpful and your joyful and playful spirit inspiring. I live down the river from Craft Cafe. Next time you go, you will see that its indoor space has expanded.
