Teoh Yi Chie what is the part 1 video called? Don’t see a link and can’t find it

[@teohyc]

[@AiraBai]

The future is now.

[@watercolourartincapetown2919]

I love your recommendation videos!!!! I always try to watch your reviews prior to buying my art books 📚 so helpful

[@jisuki6731]

Thank you so much for sharing this! What a great way to see the work from other amazing Artists and learning their techniques! Can't wait to get my copy of some of those 🧡

[@jendeleonart]

Thanks for the recommendations! I’ll definitely check these out and pick up one or two books to start with.

[@maryalgar8779]

Thanks Teoh. This certainly answers my question on the book(s) you most recommend to become a better urban sketcher. I will watch all the individual videos you did on each book as well to try and narrow it down.

[@ijung422]

Thanks for your recommendation! Love the way you walk through these books!!!

[@bobamundson3912]

Very informative - thank you for passing on your knowledge!

[@withrynz962]

Thanks for sharing this video. It was very useful and informative :)

[@NicolaNeri]

This is very helpful! Thank you!

[@KuddlyKisses]

Thank you so much! There are just _so_ many drawing books 😵‍💫 It's nice to have things narrowed down by someone whose style and opinion I like and respect 🤩

[@meiyuezhou]

Thank you so much! Your video is very helpful!

[@EmmyMW]

Thank you for this vid:) Urban Watercolour Sketching sounds like it's right up my alley so I'll be definitely be getting that. And I so agree about Keys To Drawing. That book is great. Although I haven't done all the exercises from that book, it truly did help improve my drawing:)

[@bluovalgal]

Great list of books, Teoh! Currently on the wait list for a few of the books from my library. Can't wait to see Part 1 of this video tomorrow... :)

[@cryptercm3620]

Have been watching your videos for a long time. I really like the way you present.

[@higherground711]

That's very helpful. Keys To Drawing I'll definitely be checking out. 👍😀 Thanks Teoh.

[@gaelhillyardcreative]

Another excellent video!

[@manicangel7796]

I too like the Scheinberger book.Thanks for this video :)

[@cherylchamberlain8962]

Thank you so much Teoh. You are so helpful..

[@illustratornamedkasper]

Great vid, thank you!

[@StitchquiltcreateBlogspot]

Very helpful. Thank you!

[@C0raBr0wn]

Liz Steel's book on Architecture in the 5 Minute Sketching series is one of my favorites. I use each topic as a sketching assignment. I look forward to checking out the other books in this video.

[@kinslowrainer3982]

I just ordered Keys to Drawing & Drawing Perspective using your Book Depository links. Looking forward to this. (Thanks for offering links to something that isn't Amazon.)

[@namuamitabul1975]

thank you for helping me !!

[@NCTim2]

Just finished Urban Watercolor Sketching per this recommendation. Excellent book. Loved it. Also have all of The Urban Sketching Handbook series, one of which includes one of your fabulous sketches. A must have series for all artists! Thanks Teoh!!

[@aartik4048]

Thank you so much 😊👍

[@LChula-gg9dq]

You really give the best of the best to your followers! Got 4 of these fabulous books! Thanks for the video!

[@teohyc]

Thanks 😁

[@geckonia]

Thanks Teoh! The perspective book looks great. My fave books are from Felix and Tommy Kane 😍☠️😍

[@Angela-jy8um]

Thanks for sharing!

[@karenvc8005]

I have many of these. They are very inspirational.

[@MK-nc6ub]

Had no knowledge of drawing - that would be me. Thanks for the recommendation.

[@fellaswoman]

Thank you for this! My Amazon wish list thanks you too :-)

[@mightyboy527]

that's a great sketch Teoh showing a 'complete' scene' on page 45 :)

[@Art-What..]

Thanks, good stuff..

[@juniorfsonline]

Awesome thanks

[@philnasmith9755]

Thanks for sharing 🙏

[@nou257]

oh im obsessed with urban sketching books 😍😍😍 i have three of the books you recommended and would love to have the rest

[@StephenMarkTurner]

I have had the Dodson book out from the library, it is good

[@gnostie]

Dodson is a brilliant book. It's like he reads the mind of his reader and answers their questions in the next paragraph.

[@theartzenlife4062]

very helpful!

[@Janartable]

Thank you!

[@snoozleblob]

Whoa, thanks for the video. A very good recommendations list and you explained very well what kind of content the book has, what it helps with, and who/how to get the most out of the books. I like that it was almost in a beginning to advanced order and didn't just just feel like a random list of books you like.

[@watercolourartincapetown2919]

snoozleblob yes!! I love how concise and useful these videos are ... helps when you’re overwhelmed by the books lining the shelves of a bookstore

[@anam00090]

Love this selection. By the way, just got the Frank Webb watercolor book you featured in one of your videos and it is both wonderful and useful! Thank you so much ^_^

[@ATHSketchNation]

Thanks Bro

[@annepercival7814]

I have all of these..except the Dodds.....and love them all.....they are excellent..well chosen Teoh!

[@YnaDv21]

I feel blessed that I found your channel a year ago and eventually got interested in drawing--enough for me to take Architecture in college ^^ Thank you for being an inspiration!

[@rtp737]

Thanks

[@koschke3909]

Oooh, yes, Felix Scheinbergers Books are pure inspiration and motivation to me! I own „drainting „ and „dare to sketch“, really recommend btw!

[@watercolourartincapetown2919]

Bissmark I love how Felix says there is no quick fix to learning watercolour, I have his urban watercolour book

[@koschke3909]

Watercolour Art in Cape Town and hes so right! I quess i will buy this book of him about urban sketching as well:))) Absolutely worth the money!

[@watercolourartincapetown2919]

Bissmark Teoh did a book review on it I think, and Felix has a course on sketchbook skool. I love his style

[@paulopaiva8229]

wow

[@carollegros8671]

Thanks for recommendations Any suggestions for sketching books

[@teohyc]

Keys to Drawing by Bert Dodson

[@mitchiearts]

😍😍😍

[@jcpeters4157]

What would we do without you Teoh ? Thanks for helping us ☺

[@umeshvaghela1637]

Thanks Teoh. Will you please recommend book for Pen & Watercolor Wild Animals, Pen sketching Animals and Birds etc. in your next videos.

[@teohyc]

I'm not good at those subjects so I don't have books on that

[@christastein2258]

I love the Uban Sketching Handbook Series. I was so sad to find out that "Reportage and Documentary Drawing" is out of print and no longer availiable. It's the only one of the series I don't have.

[@francescobiancardi9922]

Hi, is any of these books also translated into Italian?

[@jamesbutler5995]

Hey Teoh can you tell me what book that would be good for me as my interest are vehicles/aircraft etc?Thank you!!!

[@teohyc]

Maybe books by Scott Roberston www.parkablogs.com/category/tags/scott-robertson And check out these too www.parkablogs.com/content/book-review-beginners-guide-sketching-robots-vehicles-sci-fi-concepts www.parkablogs.com/node/1921

[@paulopaiva8229]

I will be poor, but happy!

[@Fang-nk2fb]

“Keys to Drawing” looks extremely advanced and complex to recommend it to a newbie to drawing!

[@rainbowgryphon]

I have the book and I'm a beginner. I know it looks a bit intimidating, but it's meant for beginners. It's packed with information and, like Teoh said, heavily focuses on exercises. If you follow it sequentially, which I think is what Dodson recommends, you'll be building up your drawing skills, so it won't seem advanced and complex. Hope that helps. :)

[@teohyc]

Two pages in and you’ll discover you can draw, that’s how advanced that book is

[@Fang-nk2fb]

Rainbow Gryphon Thanks that’s good to know but it looks like Da Vinci’s drawings at least from this video. LOL.

[@Fang-nk2fb]

Teoh Yi Chie Has any publisher ever approached you to publish series of your own sketches? I would buy them immediately. You are a VERY talented artist.

[@donnadamm5790]

These are all excellent sources, but I would really love to buy YOUR book on sketching. Do you have one in the works? If not, why not?

[@teohyc]

I don’t. It’s very tedious to put out a book. 🤣

[@cgsigsykchf1915]

I want one of those but it isn't available in Ph 😔

[@teohyc]

Check bookdepository

[@comicdotsdesign]

All the book previews I look at seem very basic. I know the basics of drawing and colour mixing. I want something more intermediate, about colour relationships, composition, mark making but can't find anything that doesn't start with 'This is a pen'

[@teohyc]

Check out ‘Color Choices’ and ‘Making Color Sing’ www.parkablogs.com/tags/colour-mixing

[@GaryScott-pdx]

Can you recommend a basic "How To" basic sketching book that doesn't spend most of the time showing you how to draw people and animals? I have less than zero interest in learning to draw people and animals. Thanks

[@teohyc]

Get the first book I mentioned, Keys to Drawing. It’s not about drawing people, animals. It’s about drawing.

[@Argyll9846]

When it comes to drawing peoples skill levels vary. You never mention who specific books are aimed at - beginner, intermediate or advanced and I find this is a problem with your 'reviews' which are not much more than showing people what books are available in the marketplace. I've bought a couple of your recommendations (sight unseen) and they have been a disappointment as they are basically of little help when it comes to aiding people in developing their drawing skills.

[@richardmika2136]

some books can be filled with rubbish smalle ones seemed had decent sketches

[@fuckakakaka]

Archisketcher is unfortunately out of print.
