How to Sketch places Quickly (Part 5 of 5)

Great tutorial.
Thanks for sharing...
Bro ur art is in my art textbook
Great video, thanks. I've been sketching on canvas with graphite pencils and I've tried using different fixatif to protect my final sketches but I can't find anything that seals the graphite and it still smudges. Is there any finish I can try? Thanks.
Nice tutorial, lots of good advice. I think the white gel pen is not archivable - so if you are selling your work, it might not be the best solution. What do you think about using white gouache paint.
Loved it so much so shared on a color pencil art group to do this challenge.
I loved this tutorial. It is so clear. Thanks
I’m very new to colour pencil drawing, your tutorial is amazing. Thankyou for sharing your skills.
Most excellent! Simplicity in adding a bit of color to a sketch. 👍
Can i learn this with Just ball Pen?
Thank you so, so, soooo much!! I am an art teacher and your videos literally saved me (these are the videos I’ve been praying for!). Thank you beyond words for including the photo references….you are amazing!!
Love these exercises, thank you so much. I took this one and coloured it with aquarelle paint. It came out very lovely. Looking forward to the next one, the woods.
This looks amazing! My pastel pencils are on there way.
Try this for size 1888 street with a horse carriage parked up by the side. I’ve told you because I think it would be your type of art?
I liked the more dramatic pen drawing .
This , I really do like. Well done
Ive been drawing all my life but ive really begun to enjoy sketching buildings and places in the last 6 months or so and these lessons have been really good for showing how to get a subject down on paper quickly but accurately, ive always been a bit of a perfectionist but im quickly coming round the idea it doesnt need to be perfect to still look good. Thank you :)
Phil, I learnt so much more from your videos than any other books combined. I did all the lessons . I wish I had paid more attention to drawing when I was member of ArtTutor . Thanks a bunch. Keep inspiring us.
It’s going to take a while before the smell and taste leaves me! That is stunning.
I was berthed here on HMS Beagle 1972/3 Excellent time and very friendly people.
You are amazing!!
You are very generous to post your lessons here. You have enormous knowledge and you know how to teach so well! Thank you!
❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you.
This is good video , keep it up. Have a good day anyone's reading this:)
Great! Thanks so much!
Thank you for a fabulous tutorial. Watching step by step is really helpful.
Totally agree with you in regards to using oval shapes when drawing, it is a nice organic shape and very natural to use. Just wondering if you have attempted to draw any Australian wildlife, I am sure you would think they quite unique. Thank you for these wonderful tutorials, I am learning a lot.
That is such a great tutorial! Wonderful step-by-step building up, awesome explaining, good variety of different trees etc <3
Wow... cant believe this is free. Thank you!
HI Phil, Thanks for the lesson! The link to the finished sketch seems to be missing - I get a lighthouse instead.......
😢😢😮😮😮😮
😅😊
Excellent. Thank you.
Thanks Phil, I enjoyed that and learned a lot.
I agree with you about using a paper with some color to it. White isn't interesting, or its harsh sometimes. I wonder what you think of a warmer tone than grey for some work, like a light tan or ivory, parchment looking? Sometimes I like the more creamy look. Does grey give some better advantage than those?
That's it. I've been looking at and enjoying tutorial videos of colored pencil art for a good while, for techniques, experience, practical suggestions, clarity, and simplicity. And a little humor. But that empathic awareness of the cognitive place of the untrained beginner, that the competent artist left behind years ago, that is what marks a gifted teacher. I have found my teacher. Subscribing today.
Quality of this video is 😭 what's going on
Great stuff, Much appreciated.
If I'm anything to judge by it's 'interested' passers-by rather than 'nosey', lol. Good video though Phil - cheers.
Great lesson, I'll try this, thanks!
Thank you…long-time fan since you and your Dad had the pastel pencil series! How your Dad is well, lovely talented man.
Nice tutorials. Thank you. Are you drawing on a flat surface or on an easel?
Thank you so much. This was wonderful. And thank you for the free guide!
Very informative and inspiring. Thanks for doing this.
Thank you, Phil😊
Thanks so much Phil ❤ 😉🖖 🌻🌞🦋
Is it any use using pen with coloured pencils such as for hair. So far difficulty colouring pencil sketches, blending skin tone and details such as hair.
To get more fine lines such as hair in a portrait is it any use to use pens with the coloured pencils? How are people gettinf such a refined result with just the coloured pencils. As well if you sketch first in pencil then its hard to remove the grey.
❤
Thanks. A good review for me.
