I have it on my list for a Draw Tip Tuesday video But don’t wait for it, just grab some paper and stick it in your sketchbook. Then draw on top of it. It’s surprisingly fun (even if you don’t know what you’re doing!)
So sooooooo funny to see your sketchbook from my country with my language, etc.. So so sad to find out you 3 were so so close to me, and i didnt know !! I wish i knew- i would come to take the lessons... Oh well... past cannot be changed. Thank you for sharing❤
Hi Koosje, from Madrid, Spain again (a New Yorker expat living abroad). I have to say it again... you create great Art plein air-urban-daily life sketchbooks!!! I still have some difficulty on live on-the-street sketching (slowly getting better but still need lots if improvement!). 😣😣😅👍 BTW! I finally got 2 Nostalgie sketchbooks (A4 - Portrait size - I feel more comfortable in a bigger size sketchbook and the Portrait size is better for me because I have the hight as well as the landscape width using both pages). They are very good sketchbooks. The smoothness and natural white of the paper (as well as the thickness) is similar to Bristol paper, which I use for graphite, coloured pencils and ink (even light watercolor). So, Thank you for answering to my question in the other video. You've helped me choose my go-to mixed media sketchbook of choice from now on. One last thing... real nice haircut! It suits you very well (I can't help but admire beauty when I see it and, please, don't worry... I'm not trying anything weird, it's just an honest compliment- besides my wife would kill me "slowly and painfully" otherwise). 😣😣🤣🤣🤣👍 Cheers from Sunny Spain! 😁👍😎
Coincidentally I just looked back on my travel sketchbook to Israel back in 2018 before this video. I was there for a month with my then boyfriend (now fiancé) to meet his family. The memories are still fresh in my mind when I look at my past drawings. I've been to Tel Aviv as well. Thank you for sharing. Beautifully done work!
Hi Koosje, I can’t believe you popped up in my RU-vid and you live in Amersfoort! I’ve been watching a lot of various travel journal channels. I’m going to visit Amersfoort for several days in September. I’ll join your Patreon page. 😊
@@KoosjeKoene koosje I came across a fabulous book in a second hand shop today. It's called Greece. Written by Henry Millet and Drawings by. Anne Poor. They are fabulous and so like your teaching us on Tuesdays it was published in1964. By Thames and Hudson.
This might be my favorite of your sketchbook tours! Every drawing was beautiful. I like how the mediums and styles can slightly change from page to page, but overall it still has the distinctive "Koosje vibe" 💙
It's always a pleasure to tour your sketchbooks, Koosje! I'm still drawing erratically rather than daily but I love that you're changing my mind ~ giving me a new perspective about drawing. Would love to get to that point of traveling and confidently drawing a lot and making memories that way. Thank you 🥰🥰💕
Really fun to see your travel sketches! I loved the bits of collage and colorful backgrounds that you added! I recently returned from an awesome trip to Spain, and I completed some travel journal-style pages during the trip and completed the rest when I got home. It was really fun to be working on the pages during the traveling or down time of the trip.
Hi sweet Koosje ! Thank you for sharing your adorable and fun sketchbook ! You always lift up my spirits and make me smile seeing so many charming drawings page after page ! Adding collage has certainly gave them that extra punch of happiness ! Wish you a great week together with health and happiness to you and you husband who is a faithful inspiration to you to sketch ( not in this one though) !! 😁🙏🏼Warmest regards…Lorraine 😁❤️☹️
We love how the line quality in your work is packed with descriptive information but always leaves room for expressiveness too! And always good advice to write your contact info in each sketchbook. That's a habit every artist should acquire, even if it's just a contact email
The timing is so perfect, I'm on a train now, going to the seaside to visit my family, and I've already gotten one train drawing down! Thank you for the inspiration for the whole week 💐
Hi ! Try using your non-dominant hand ! A few years ago while I attended adult art classes I got challenged by my tutor to do just that and guess what ?! I managed to do some really fun and quirky sketches that my tutor hung on the wall as proof that a good sketch can still happen even with your non dominant hand ! Try it ! At least it will lift up your spirts ! Wish you a speedy recovery dear friend ! Warmest regards…Lorraine 🎨🤗
