I loved this video just as much as I enjoy all your videos. Very well explained and educational and beautiful sketch, too. Your sketches made me finally dare to paint cityscapes!
Wow! What a transformation! I know that your signature style is, to colour in sections without regard to whether you are inside or outside the line ;)… But I like this new ‘precise’ style, Teoh :)
I love this video as well as the last one. Brilliantly done with just the three colors. Thanks for posting. I hope you'll do some more like this of Amsterdam.
Nice sketch Teoh! You forgot an important element of the eye-line or eye-level instruction you mentioned. Only people that are your height will have eyes at your eye-line or eye-level; taller people will have eyes above and shorter people (such as children) will have eyes below your eye-line. Eye-level is a good place to start understanding where figures will be in the landscape but shorter or taller people will need to be adjusted proportionally. Imagine a mother and child holding hands in your scene, or three friends, one tall, one your height and one short standing in a row.
I am so glad I found your channel. I have been enjoying your videos immensely. It's nice to see/watch someone else watercolor and sketch the same way as I. Keep up with the variety of videos and thank you for sharing your world. (well.. i don't always draw with my nibs and my pens aren't as nice as yours but lol.. i meant similar styles)
Hi Teoh, I have a question. According to the urban sketchers 'code' you have to draw on location. As someone who is chronically ill I am not often able to sketch on location, so sometimes I take a photo and use that to make a sketch, like you did here. Is my sketch then still considered to be an urban sketch? Some people on a FB group told me it wasn't, so I guess someone who's chronically ill can't be an urban sketcher (in their opinion anyway). What do you think?
Urban sketching is about drawing on location. It's not really a big deal if it's urban sketching or not urban sketching. Take this video for example, it's not urban sketching since it was not drawn on location.
Those sketching tutorials are really cool, I hope you keep sharing them. What waterproof ink do you currently use in your fountain pen for sketching + watercoloring over it?
It’s VERY admirable that you choose not to put ads in your youtube videos, but for those of us on budgets who are not able to support you on Patreon, I personally feel an ad or two is not a problem whatsoever on each video and it would be nice to know at least the ad revenue would be helping you. Would you consider at least one ad per video?
3 Question please: 1/ Did you take the reference photo yourself? 2/ If you take your own references photos, can you (or have you in the past) share what camera you feel is good for this purpose? 3/ What book helped you the most in becoming the great urban sketcher you are? Thank you.
I took the photo myself. You can just use any camera. When talking photos, try to make the vertical lines straight, and capture light and shadow (don't take when a huge cloud is passing by).

Hi. Thanks for this video. Very informative. This is my rendition of your photo. instagram.com/p/B14yX6ho2mO/ Probably too dark. I have to learn to dilute more my colors. Any feedback will be highly appreciated.
Patreon is just another avenue I provide for those who want to support me. Otherwise, people can still enjoy the hundreds of YT tutorials I've made on my free time.
It really takes a lot of time and effort to film and edit videos. At least Teoh still provides a lot of free tutorials here on YT for all of us but for those who are able to support him monetarily or wants to learn more through his full length video, they can support him there :)
@@EvelinTee I understand. And I'm not minimizing the incredible quality and talent but it would be nice for once just to see a tutorial video without any advertisements to support, contribute, pay for, etc. That's all.
