Ok Toby, here we goooo! I'm 62, recently retired in USA. Found your channel by chance. I have ordered a Lamy F. Pen and a bottle of Platnium ink. Gonna give this thing a whirl! Thank you for inspiring me! Cheers!
I've only been painting a few weeks and on a whim I bought a glass dip pen and I was surprised how natural it felt to use it I actually like it better than a pencil
Thank you Toby. I started doing art 9 years ago having hated it at school in the 1960s! Which put me off ever trying. I never thought I could draw let alone apply paint but love it now just lack imagination. I find your tutorials inspirational and freeing up. And I’ve just remembered I have a dip pen somewhere I must now go and find and buy some magazines to cut up! Thank you so much. Pity you don’t do live workshops ???
Thanks for sharing. Great to have a fresh perspective. 😁 (pun intended). I love the idea of mixing things up. Creating art just for yourself is key. ❤️
Thanks again for sharing I have been enjoying all.of this. Collage? Stop it! Stop inspiring me! So many more things to try. I hate loving your ideas you share. Lol. See you soon.
Thank you for this, Toby, decisions, mmmm........ can be really hard, but i love the thought, practise, and potential of what art can give me. So helpful....
Love your tips! I was barely half way through the video when I knew I'd be returning to watch this over and over again. Especially love the collage idea -- may have to try it today!
It's taken me almost a yr, but finally doing my art for me, it's so liberating! But as a true people pleaser, very challenging! Thanks Toby, great ideas😊
Love the coffee mug, is it available for sale? Also--Sprite works quite well with watercolors, as I found out on a recent flight (oops). Note to self...never put the water pot next to your drink.
Oohhh. Thanks for this! Really great to be reminded of some things that I have done in the past, as well as introduced to some other ideas! I’m very keen on exploring the use of collage and abstract, especially after seeing your explanation and use of these techniques. You’ve made them look fun and have approached them in different ways to what I normally see. So again, thanks heaps!
Hi Toby, while you were talking about blind sketching, I paused and did a 15 second blind sketch of you! Looks just like you (haha)! So many good ideas that I can try. Thanks a lot.
Thank you for all these good tips and encouragements 🙏😅 I think I needed that today, I will certainly try most if not all your tips in the following days and also just registered to your free class !! 😁👏🖋️🖌️🎨❤️
Inspirational, as always. It's always good to be reminded of these things as to forget as you get carried away with the subgect matter, also, I love using collage and incorporate it into a lot of my paintings/drawings.
Looks like you are switching from Lamy pen to TWSBI pen? I just ordered a TWSBI 580 that I will dedicate to drawing with permanent ink. PS: i love the using toothpicks. I love TWSBI for writing but have been VERY nervous about putting permanent ink into them… picking one pen just for this will make it easier, I think.
