Urban Sketching with Sailor's Fude Fountain Pen 🎨 Ink and Watercolors on Location
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Hi everyone, today I'm sharing with you my morning finding inspirations at Deville Coffee in Downtown Vancouver. This cafe has a compelling view of the Waterfront Station building right outside the window. I grabbed that perfect seat by the window and spent nearly 2 hours drawing and painting the brick building and the downtown ambience. 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 (Bamboo Green)
- 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)

Love your videos. You inspire me to do the same thing. What a lovely way to spend a few hours.

So inspired by your colour rendering I’ve just ordered the Mungyo paints.😊
Very nice!😁 looking forward to trying this in my city this summer
thank you for these videos! i got inspired and used your techniques to do a sketch of a local cafe :)
I got the pen! No idea how to use it... and I need waterproof ink for it. I love your sketches... the coffee and food, people in the foreground, and the buildings as the background, although they're what we're looking at. I so enjoy your work, thank you
You are amazing! An hour and 1/2?? Very nice.
Hi Becky. Your biggest fan is here to watch you draw! I am constantly amazed at your skill set. You are my inspiration to draw better and use more concise strokes of the pen. I've been practicing this past week and have really enjoyed the process. Thank you so much for your informative videos. I'm ready to enroll in one of your classes now. Take care!

I’m so happy I found your channel! I love watching you sketch, and enjoy seeing the process of your fabulous sketches! Cheers! 😁
Such a beautiful place to be in Vancouver. Love your work Becky, you did a great job again here.
Hi Becky, I’m enjoying your videos this past week since You Tube entered you in my feed. Using ink is new to me I usually just lightly sketch and then paint, but I’m trying your method and like it for my sketchbook. Thank you for the effort you put into making the videos, they are very good!

Thank you for your appreciation, Joan!
Great sketching & thanks for explaining your process! :D
Love to watch you draw you are so fast & accurate - hope to get better at this - I draw & paint something every day! Thank you for sharing 🙏❤️
This was interesting watching you sketch three different views. I enjoy your clouds on this one. Have a good week.
Love seeing your process. This is another beautiful layout.
I like that you use brown ink. I recently started using Noodlers #41 brown.
Amazing!
Fantastic sketch Becky. What colour ink do you use?
Will you recommend using this fude fountain pen rather than other fountain pen?

yes. The bent nib can create more expressive lines that regular fountain pens don't. ☺️
Wonderful video! The sketch & watercolor is fabulous. I used to go to the zoo and sketch. 🦍🦛🦓🦩But then I got a job and it’s hard to fit it in anymore. I’m inspired to make a plan to visit again.
The cloud above the large building is wonderful…
