Drawing Snippets on-the-go 

Great drawing idea, but more importantly, you are a very good friend 🧡

Koosje, watching your videos is like meditation. So calming and peaceful and sweet! Also, you are such a great friend, your friend is lucky to have you! And I am glad she is OK!

So simple and so inspirational. Yes I can draw my day. No more wasting time trying to find what to draw. Thank you 😊

Your friend is blessed to have you in her life and so are we! This was fun to watch. 😊

I love how the end result looks carefully planned out and nicely filled! Last year I did a double page spread with stages of an orchid flower opening up over several days. It was great fun. Thanks for the reminder of doing a series of sketches, sort of as a time line, on one page

I'm FINALLY visiting family in the UK in July after nearly 5 years of not travelling (covid, assisting elderly dad in-law etc). So, looking forward to having time to sketch at the station, airport, train etc!

What a great idea and I just love how you use the white crayon for mark making - I'll definitely try that. Thanks so much for sharing 🌻

A good reminder that it can be as simple as one pen & paper.

You are such a great friend. I suffered such 'homesickness' watching your travel and the countryside throughh the windows. Lovely!

This is giving me Mario Miranda art style vibes 😍

What a great idea. If I tried to draw that quickly, I dread to think what the results would be like 🤦🏻‍♂️although I know the only way to improve is to keep drawing. Love the look of this two page spread of your day.

Thank you Koosje - inspires me to use those small moments which can build up to so much! Did you always manage to find a place to sit down to draw or do you sometimes draw while standing up?

So cool!

I use drawing fragments (didnt know thats what i was doing) whenever I have to wait for an appointment, or at the hospital. helps with my anxiety. 😊

Thank you Koosje 😊 that was so much fun . A snippet day😅

Several people have mentioned one should pick a subject and do sketches of that subject whenever they come across if. For instance, someone may pick trains, or buses, or taxis if there is an abundance of them. One might pick out barns, or horses, or windmills if they find there are many to choose from. Over the last several years as I drove my wife, or my oldest daughter, or myself for that matter 8:42 , to various doctor’s offices, x-ray or MRI waiting rooms, I have killed my wait times by sketching the waiting rooms I have sat in. Some even provide patients to fill in the seats and benches one finds. By now I have just about lost count of the number of waiting rooms I have sketched. Some of the people I have seen there have made for some very interesting subjects as well. I wonder if there is a market for sketches of local waiting rooms around here? The people sketches are not of the highest caliber so there would be no worry about letting the world know who was there and thus destroying their privacy.

Thank you Koosje for such a practical and fun demo of when and how to use our drawing skills. We are taking a Viking River cruise on the Danube late summer when i can really use your example. I better get practicing 🧑‍🎨

I would love to see more and more of these on-the-go video's! I'll do it myself as well :D Been trying to get out of my art-block. IK KAN HET.

Thanks Koosje. I like the idea of snippets, more than doodles but not so much as a drawing. Nice also to see the brush pen at work, I have one but struggled to get the hang of it, time to try it out again with your inspiration x

Thanks Koosje! Great video. I like your drawings.

Thanks for sharing. It’s also amazing how you can hold your phone while sketching and moving in a train 😄

That’s really lovely….

Love it!

Thank you, Koosje. You made drawing become so much fun!

That’s great! I thought this morning of sketching during meetings that otherwise bore me to tears. Lots of those at work. Haha.

You're always surprisingly inspirational. You capture the essence of your day so easily. Thank you for sharing.😊😊😊

Beautiful! ❤

Fantastic

Inspiring as always

I just got your book, you were right... I did want it. I'm really looking forward to getting it!

I m going to give it a try. Very inspiring!

This was very interesting. I need to do this. Thank you for inspiration.

This is an informative video! Your work is great. And I'm sure holding the cam was tricky

I love it. Great work with all those people! A little scared for me just now. Your friend is very lucky having your friendship. Love from far away Buenos Aires.

Aww... more wind...it must be following you.😉. Have a great day!!

⭐️ really good vid. :)

😊😊

Wat lief! It’s good you accompanied your friend 👍 good sketches too

You make it look effortless.

Absolutely interesting sketches and what a good friend you are to help someone and also do art!!

What I wonderful idea! I will use it on my travel days.

That was fantastic! Thank you for sharing your day!

Really loved watching this, thankyou Koosje

I'm going to have to get myself a brush pen. So versatile!

I'm too scared to look at people's faces in the train long enough to draw them! Do you have tips on how to overcome my fear? :D

Very inspiring😊 ! Thanks

Inspiring indeed

I will try a brush pen! Scared!

A very good idea. I have just finished reading your book which is great, inspirational and given me lots to think about and do. 👏👏😊

what is the white crayon? the ones i have tried smear when you close the book. thanks! loved your sharing of your day.

What pen were you using for the lettering? Love your snippet day! Thank you.

Hoi Koosje, ik kijk graag je video’s. Een tijd geleden vertelde je in een video over een website waar steeds wisselende buitenbeelden over heel de wereld te zien zijn om binnen te urban sketchen, als je niet naar buiten kan. Weet je die website nog? Of iets soortgelijks. Alvast bedankt!

Which brush pen do you use in this video?

That looked excellent, Koosje! I will do this thing esp on my travels next week! Btw, is that the monstera your friend gave you as a cutting? It looks amazing! 🪴🥰
