Hi small youtuber here you can also check my vids about architecture & arts! :) kzread.info/dash/bejne/X6xk1biaeaW4idI.html

Excellent. Thank you! Please consider creating a beginner's series of videos. I think it would be a very encouraging initiative so beginners would be able to understand how to better start. I also enjoy the way you demonstrate the steps, its clarity and pace.

It’s great to see you showing Holbein watercolors, which in my experience are of the highest quality. For instance, the color “viridian” is such a great mixer for greens, and the Holbein brand does not break up like other brands. I love the “leaf green” color, which captures beautifully leaves as they are first unfurling.

Great video. It is amazing how quickly a nice picture can be created. Thank you.

I knew it all already, but watched the whole video anyway. Somehow you present information in a way that doesn't make feel like I waste my time.

So much helpful information. Wish I had see this 18 months ago when I started painting with water colour, it would have saved me a lot of time and materials 🙂 Thank you Teoh, for your excellent tutorials

Teoh you’re so cool! You motivate me to jump right in to making art just by sharing your process. I really don’t like overthinking creativity. Thank you for pushing us all forward man.

Very helpful video! Makes me want to pull out my little watercolor paints and doodle again.. two thumbs up, Teoh!

TFS, Teoh! Occasionally I do a quick paint box sketch to swatch my paint colors. It does create some additional interest to my swatch charts! Great pens and inks type info also. 👍🏾🍁

I loved it! Thank you very much for this video. I've been feeling burnout and I decided to start experimenting with watercolors. This helps very much! Thank you once again.

Thanks for showing all the brand names close up! Most artists don't seem to do this and fly by so fast it can be disappointing. You're the best😊

I have watched your videos for years and everyone is a pleasure to watch. Thank you

I really enjoyed this video. I may not be brand new to watercolour and yet it was great for remembering and seeing pen and watercolour combos

Really enjoyed this guide, Teoh. Its quite comprehensive, and for a beginner like me, the way you combine quite technical information with enthusiasm for the fun and creative process of sketching is just wonderful. You are by far my favourite channel.

I really can’t stress enough the importance of testing pens for watercolor because there are some pens that say waterproof but sometimes blot or spread when water is applied,sometimes it’s the paper’s quality,so it really is important to test things and watch reviews.btw thanks for featuring holbein watercolors,it’s one of my favorite brands to use.

Great informative video, thank you!

quick guide to sketching with ink & watercolour by Teo Yi Chie. This is an excellent video for me. Although I have painted in watercolour for many years I have never combined it with an ink drawing so the advice on what different pens can do and also on the ink drying time before using paint were brilliant for me. Thank you Teo. It is very much appreciated. Joan Storer. England.

Another great video, thanks! However, as I am never one to refrain from critical commentary, I would love it if you were able to describe how you set up & work when you are doing Urban sketching. I am in New York, and it seems like space is a questionable Prospect for most of my Urban sketching, so I've taken to using water brushes which are frankly very unsatisfying in terms of the quality achievable with them. I see your sketching walk videos and I see some of your compatriots with what looks like an entire artist studio spread out on their laps, where I'm just trying to juggle a small thumb-ring palette, a moderately- sized Sketchbook and a water-brush! I'd love to see your insight into space organization on one's lap, whether anyone uses a lap desk or not, two handed art supply manipulation (kind of like a lesson in brain surgery, y'know?), where the paper towels or rags go when you're done with them, whether or not you're carrying a suitcase size carrier for all this stuff, that sort of thing. Some of us are deep into this not just beginners, and I would love to get some insight from you and maybe some of your co-urban- sketch colleagues about how they "juggle." Thanks!

And when your “disposable” Micron/Pitts tech pens go dry, you can just pull the nib out and refill them with your waterproof carbon/India Inks and they’ll keep on going :)

Thank you for this. I like that water colour set you have there. I have a tin set that has two flaps or mixing space (not sure what it is called) and I tend to only use one of it. And I find the other one a bit troublesome.

I like to use my pilot pens for quick sketching as water spreads the ink and creates quick shading with a waterpen.

Your drawings are interesting and I like them, wish we could see more :) I find the drawing in 16:38 so interesting.

A wonderful intro video! All of your videos are very good; I am enjoying them and learning a lot! In your discussion of artist v student-grade watercolors, I'm surprised you don't mention colorfastness. I've been given to understand this is a very important feature of watercolors. For example, if you are creating art to sell/display (as opposed to just sketching in your sketchbooks), you want to be sure to use watercolors that are colorfast, so that colors don't change or fade over time. What do you think? Do you think these differences are sometimes overrated?

@teohyc

5 жыл бұрын

It's best to get lightfast colours that last. But I don't have the capability to test all the colours I use, so I have to rely on the manufacturer labels. Commonly used colours and pigment have lots of information on lightfast quality. So I tend to use those

To many choices. Mechanical lead holder with 4B graphite, lead sanding block, Pigma Micron .1 waterproof pen, Arches hot press block watercolor paper, Winsor/Newton Cotman water color paint ( Alizarin crimson, Cad yellow light, French ultra marine blue, Burnt umber, White, small tubes), white vinyl eraser. Now just do it. A lot.

Flat brushes are good for covering large areas, bold and straight strokes. I prefer squirrel brushes because I find them more flexible for general use and they can cover large areas too.

Hi Teoh. I quite enjoy using inks like watercolours, but finding suitable brushes to use with ink has been hit and miss. Do you think I should use normal watercolour brushes or different ones?

You have to look for waterproof inks that mention specifically that they are safe for use in fountain pens. But even so, it's good to clean out the pens once in a while, and definitely clean the pen if you are not going to be using them for long period of time. If you cap the pen problem, the ink will not dry out.
