I made a little journal when I was in Italy. I took photos of the things I wanted to draw and later wrote a little text and painted every evening after dinner at the hotel bar. I put the business card of the place I went to in my journal and things I found(pressed flowers/stickets and more) It was so much fun!!😊😊

Oh my gosh, I absolutely love this. Thank you so much for sharing with us.

This sounds amazing Alina! Thank you for sharing x

Definitely understand the overpacking lol better to bring with because you never know if might need that specific art supply. Greece would be a beautiful place to visit

@revondamehovic3132 5 месяцев назад

For me, an ideal art retreat could be anywhere. I would love Morocco.

@SketchesnScrubs 5 месяцев назад

It’s a beautiful place 😍

@klarakarotta6845 5 месяцев назад

Roussillon in the South of France is super nice for art travel. It's called the Colorado of France. There is a lot to learn/see about the old-school way of mining ocre pigments and just buying nice colors and using them on the spot!! 😁

@SketchesnScrubs 2 месяца назад

Interesting! thanks for sharing x x

@kathyhackney7950 5 месяцев назад

Watching this even though I’m not taking a vacation anytime soon.. Just dreaming

@SketchesnScrubs 5 месяцев назад

It’s good to dream 😍

@susanweller2121 5 месяцев назад

Don't steal. 😂 I'd love to go to any place on the Mediterranean. South of France, Italy, Greece... Great ideas here. I just love how colorful you are, in your attire, paintings, and positivity.

@SketchesnScrubs 5 месяцев назад

😂😂😂😂😂 felt like I started sounding a little bit ambiguous with the “take anything you want” 😂😂😂

@ButterflyBlessingsStudio 5 месяцев назад

I feel like Italy is an ideal art retreat location, specifically Tuscany, and even more specific San Gimingnano…I’ve been there but would go again in a heartbeat if I could. 😊

@SketchesnScrubs 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for the suggestion!! ❤️❤️❤️

@ladyamalthea85 5 месяцев назад

I'd love to go somewhere like Scotland to paint all the amazing greens. I'd also like it to cool down in Perth, Australia so I can spend more than 5 mins outside and try some plein air sketching in the beautiful place I live

@SketchesnScrubs 5 месяцев назад

That would be cool! Thanks for sharing xx

@jesswoodhere 5 месяцев назад

I feel like as much as I’d love to go on an art retreat, I need to do more plein air in my own neighborhood and local area. I’m so bad at getting out of the house to paint. But my ideal location would be Spain 💕

@SketchesnScrubs 5 месяцев назад

I hope you enjoy doing more plein air locally!! Thank you for sharing x

@creativewah 5 месяцев назад

Honestly I’m just always so tired from travelling (just enjoying myself, walking around, eating great food etc) that in practical sense I probably won’t have time/energy to actually do art, unless I very specifically decide to set aside time for art maybe. I bought some art supplies during my trip last year but was too busy in the day to paint and too exhausted at night to do much else. I LOVE watching others paint outside/when traveling though! :P “I am a heavy packer” Me too, well not so much for clothes… But the other stuff in my life? Even the stuff I bring to work or out shopping? I feel so insecure if I don’t have like a ton of things with me 😅 Packing suncream - gives me flashbacks of when I got horrific burns after being out in the sun for about an hour while having lunch. That practically never happens locally because there’s almost always cloud cover and who the heck who make conference attendees eat lunch in the sun in this hot and crazy weather? 😅

@SketchesnScrubs 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for sharing MessyDesk! Oh no! Sorry to hear about your sun burn! I definitely think it’s easy to forget these things sometimes I agree lol I love taking lots with me 😜 just in case inspiration strikes but not putting pressure if it’s a “filling cup” experience instead xx

@sandrarahimi5688 5 месяцев назад

I have noticed that most of the art retreats are in Europe. I would like one in Mexico (Mexico City is awesome as are cenotes and Maya ruins) or maybe Peru. Or maybe Morocco

@SketchesnScrubs 5 месяцев назад

Great suggestions Sandra! I went to Tulum and other parts of Mexico and had a lovely time! Also loved Morocco! Peru is on the wish list! Xx

Love your videos. We’re going to Hawaii next week for a week so I bought sketch books and minimized my watercolor palette for it. Can’t wait to try Plein air there! 😢

@SketchesnScrubs 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for watching! I’m so excited for you!!!! That sounds incredible, I hope that you have an amazing trip ❤️ Hawaii is definitely one of my bucket list dream locations ❤️

I loved this video! I went to Ireland and Spain this last Summer (a dream come true!!) and brought my watercolors but I never got around to painting because I was so busy! I had a blast and didn't worry about trying to squeeze in painting, so thank you for your last tip

@SketchesnScrubs 5 месяцев назад

That sounds like a wonderful trip and I’m so glad that my final tip helped, it’s super important ❤️❤️

Streamlined? 😂 Seriously, I watch your travel videos and am shocked that you are not wearing the same outfit every day because I don’t know where you find the room for clothes with all of your art supplies 😅. (Do you secretly stash dresses in your family’s luggage? Lol) Love seeing your trips and the different travel kits you prepare and the art you create 😊. The idea of a group art trip sounds like an amazing experience and I hope it works out for you!! Even though I know I “could” go on an excursion like that, I would feel soooo guilty diverting travel budget funds to a solo trip for myself since my family enjoys traveling as much as I do. I’ll have to live vicariously through videos.

@SketchesnScrubs 5 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for watching FaithAnn 😂😂😂 I had to laugh when I said streamlined my self 😂 I guess is relative loo to the gigantic case of supplies I used to take in the past (beach Vlog being an excellent example) I understand! And I hope that you all get to take a wonderful trip❤️❤️❤️

That Portable Painter Micro, it has a little ring for attaching a lanyard so I hang it around my neck. I have the quadruple pans in it so there are 16 colors. I spent a month in Italy last fall and went out every day with the palette, a 5x5” Hahnemuhle sketchbook, a water brush, a pencil and a fountain pen (a Pineider made and purchased in Florence). I had more art supplies back in the hotel room, but that is what I took out every day. Your travel sketching is inspirational!

@SketchesnScrubs 5 месяцев назад

That honestly sounds incredible Arlene! Where abouts in Italy? Xx

@arlenealennox3136 5 месяцев назад

Went to a watercolor workshop in Terni in Umbria from which we visited other hill towns and then went and spent 3 weeks in Florence. UK coming up in June with a workshop in the Cotswolds and then going to spend 3 weeks in Scotland. We’re a couple of old retired ladies who love to sketch!

Ideal art location. Hmmm. Somewhere not rainy with more predictable warm weather. You are in Europe?

@SketchesnScrubs 5 месяцев назад

I am indeed ❤️

I kind of struggle to find travel brushes I like (and are affordable)😕 I tried taking my favorite regular brushes in a roll with me on a longer hike but they took up too much space and some got a bit frizzy. I hope to find some new travel brushes before my next hike in aug/sep.

@SketchesnScrubs 5 месяцев назад

What kind of regular brushes do you like ? And what kind do you dislike? Xx

@rebeccasartcorner 5 месяцев назад

@@SketchesnScrubs my two most used brushes are DaVinci casaneo size 2 and Kum memory point size 9. It’s kind of hard to explain why I like them. The davinci brush can hold a lot of water so I can cover “larger” areas with it (think A5 sketchbook) but it doesn’t necessarily release a lot of water and the point is very pointy so I can also use it for details. The kum brush is more dense so I tend to use this one when I want less water but still want to cover areas with color, I use it for more detailed work aswell. I don’t know why I use bigger brushes even if it’s for details. In summary I guess, I mostly use round brushes around size 9 ish, must be pointy. Once in a while I use a 0 sized rigger brush or a size 3ish and I’m trying to incorporate more flat brushes when I’m painting because if the straight edges it can create. I tried the Winsor and Newton professional synthetic sable round brush in size 8 but it released too much water and the tip was kind of meh. I hope that makes sense. To be honest I’m not even sure why I like the brushes I do, I just do🤷‍♀️ Also, I might aswell mention that I’m not a loose type of painter.
