Ink and Watercolour drawing an old hut in 20 minutes 

Love this one, Martin. I first started using stick pens and fountain pens to draw when I was about 13 years old (about 60 years ago -yikes!). I have always loved this medium, as well as watercolor, and really love your loose, artful portrayals of these old buildings. I'd love to see more of these types of sketches.

Love that style, so much more interesting than photorealism. Still trying to train my brain to reject the urge to copy and obsess…

You do a broken and squiggly line and it is artful. When I do a broken and squiggly line it looks like an error! Love this piece of art! Thanks.

Wonderful!

Sometimes the rainwater guttering is called SPOUTING. Brilliant en plein air sketch. Your simplification is wonderful. Thanks Martin

Love this. Thank you very much.

It's amazing how the watercolor looks so good in that not-a-watercolor-sketchbook. The result is even better than my cheap watercolor sketchbook 😅 I have a similar sketchbook like this though it is 100gsm, maybe I'll try watercolor on it next time.

THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO MR. LACHMAIR BECAUSE YOU MADE THIS U.S. MARINE WANT TO TRY OUT THE INK WITH WATER COLOR METHOD

Thanks very much, Martin!! Your video's are very help full to me. I recently start sketching in your style and it gives me very much satisfaction. I have been suffering from Postcovid complaints for over a year, but since I started drawing it has given me a lot of peace of mind. I enjoy your video's and posts on Instagram. I regularly watch your videos and learn from them again and again. Greetings from Anton | The Netherlands.

Awesome video! I love how your tutorials seems approachable enough to make me fully confident enough while your skill comes through enough to show me where I still need practice

Martin, another fantastic video and demo of your style and talent. So so thankful for your time and generosity in preparing these for us to enjoy.

Many thanks for sharing Martin . It's a Beautiful Ink Drawing. Cheers from AUSTRAILA 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

Eavestrough. A trough (pronounced TROFF) that lies below the eaves. Love the drawing. My brush pen ink isn’t 100% waterproof but the diffusion of ink adds to the effect. These are great exercises to do when time is limited and we all need practice. (I do, anyway!)

Cheers from the US! Those rain catchers we call gutters here :) Have a great Easter!!

Brilliant sketch thank you!

Nice piece of work here Martin. The choice for colors and shades make it a nice painting to watch.

Love to learn with your skills. 🙏

Thank you from South Africa... 🇿🇦 The deep shadows give a feeling of mystery to your work...

Rainwater goods/gutters/guttering... love the looseness of the work... I definitely need to loosen up with my work. Thank you!

I’ve learnt that I don’t have enough darks in my sketches. ❤

Excellent presentation yet again - thank you Martin, thoroughly enjoyable.

Thank you Martin. Am going to have a go at this. Also a great tip about the sketchbook. I waste so much expensive watercolour paper and always worry about using less thick /heavy paper but these types of sketches use little water so i guess they are fine!

Very inspiring (again…), thank you!

Fantastic artwork. At the beginning - you show Your first sketch *made from imagination* is brilliant. & Your main sketch of the shed is excellent. Keep sharing. Happy (post) Easter 2024 everyone

❤❤❤ Hugs from Brazil! Love your content!

Fabulous!

God, you are a magician!

Me gusta mucho la sintesis . quedó genial Martin.

Very beautiful

Great! Going out in the next couple weeks to give plein air a try. Only have done it once last fall. The name of the rain catcher on the building is called eavestrough. Thanks again. Love the video.

wow !!

A 'gutter' for water run-off .😊 Greetings from Mariposa , California !

Absolutely brilliant. Thank you.

Enjoyable as always Martin:-)

Absolutely helpful video. And what a beautiful artwork. Thank You very much.

Awsome!!! Thanks for video!!!! Your style is so cool💛💙

Very helpful, thank you

congratulations on your art.

Wonderful! It seems easier than it really is.😍

Thank you Martin for the videos. Your art is absolutely amazing. Can you please make a full video from start to finish with a reference photo frozen in one of the corner for full video. That will allow real time comparison and your thought process.

Really Great!,

Love your sketches

Thank you so much. I really enjoyed this video.

Great video Martin! In New Zealand we call the rain catchment channels 'guttering'.🙂

Fantastic result

I love your style 🙏🎨🇿🇦

Thank you for sharing your Beautiful Artwork. New subscribers from the Caribbean 🙏

Lovely as always, Martin! We call it a gutter.

Merci, comme toujours c'est très intéressant bonne journée

So friendly tutorial video, I like it, very interesting 👌

I really like your style…thanks for posting the things you do. I have one question: how does that lightweight paper not buckle and pool the paint when you add watercolor? Vielen dank!

I love your style! Very good video :) Are you sightseeing Poland? :D

Eaves, trough, or sometimes rain gutter or downspout 👍

Get the F out of here 20 minutes? I love it! ❤

Ease trough is what we call the trough where the water comes off the roof

+1 👍🤝

Thanks Martin good video. What kind of pen would you you recommend?

Hallo Martin, ich möchte nicht Lobhudeln.., mir gefällt der Sketch sehr! Ich finde du hast ein unglaubliches Gefühl bei Aquarellieren! Sorry aber mir gefallendeDeine freien Aquarellarbeiten sogar noch besser als der normale Stil und den mag ich auch sehr! Beste unbekannte Grüße aus dem Pott....

❤️💚💙🌹

Very interesting! But why doesn't wet watercolor wash away the ink strokes?

Are you using the Pelikan Classic 205 820684 Fountain Pen Black Nib EF Extra Fine here?

Just what I was looking for. I've had some formal training many, many years ago (abstract acrylic) but wanting to go back to pen and Ink with washes. I appreciate your low key presentation, your skill of course, finally it is your style that made me like and subscribe. Thank you for sharing with us. Priceless really.

Guttering is word you are looking for.

Usually I do this overwork, but your video helps me to stop with this terrible thing

It’s called a ‘gutter’ martin

Rain water gutter, by the way.

Videos like dis don't show mixing colar or what too use so i don't no 😢

Eavestrough

I like your style, the way you show how you paint but looking at your painting at an angle for the duration of the video was really annoying.

.............thank you,...........your widows were off by a mile .....in your case a few kelometers........overall........kind of sloppy work..alot like the rest of your stuff..........perhap next time you might want to adress color..a bit more. ...seriously,..accuretly...? clean up your work...ad youll be alot more happy with it.........but....... after alls said..... and done,.......i did learn somthing from your video................................Danke schoen........

Can you do a video about tips and tricks that you're using with low-quality paper , please 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Io non capisco perché debba fare le linee spezzate. A cosa servono?
