  • In this urban sketching session I share how I sketch a locomotive a the Roundhouse in Toronto. The pencil and pen is done on location and the watercolor washes added at home.

    A full process might be nice, but I love the length of this video! Well done! Perfect narration too! And I love your watercolor! Really captured the colors!

      Thank you for the feedback - I would like to work up to a full real-time process video eventually.

    If you just started with watercolors - the outcome is nice. Train looks like a nice piece of machinery too. :-)

      Yes - I measured out the train on the page with my fingers.

    Aquarellfarben, das klingt immer so leicht. Aber das ist es nicht. Bei mir geht fast immer irgendetwas schief, aber es kommt darauf an, was man damit macht. Du macht das super! Mir gefällt das sehr, auch das Video an sich. Weiter so!

    I absolutely love your train! Can I ask you? I am doing an house portrait on a 14 x 12 and can only find a print shop with a 12 x 12 flat bed for printing, what do artist do if they want to make a good copy to share of their art work? do I make a picture to print? thank you in advance if you can help. 😊

      Thank you! I’m not sure I’ll be much help re printing as I’ve never done flat bed printing - is it 12x14 feet? Someone else perusing here might know.

      @@AGsBlog_ Hi, thanks for your quick reply, no the copy would be in inches. I am guessing take a digital picture then print it the size I need, thank you, again.

    Does the watercolor technique have to wet the background paper every time before painting?

      @@user-zq2jc7oe2x no, it depends how you want the paint to blend. I find for the light washes it’s helpful to have a wet page to allow different tones to mix together. I’m working through a hot rod video and I found a dry page was helpful for some of the car’s body work.
