no need to defend your painting. It is strange how hard we are to ourselves. You painting is beautiful and I enjoyed seeing you making it. Hahaha, did not at any time think that it was a mess. It is awesome. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much!
I LOVE this! I think your work space is VERY important! I went from sharing a desk in my husband’s office to my own she/shed and it made all the difference in the world for me.
Nice!
I'm pushing for a She Shed too. Fingers crossed 🤞
It came out awesome! Stop picking on yourself lady!! Glad you had a blast in France also glad your home safe. One last thing, you sounded almost embarrassed about picking up the trash. I feel that whoever left it should be embarrassed. Nothing wrong with keeping the earth you live on, you know the only one we ALL live on, as clean as possible. Take care!!
Yes! Thank you!
Yes! I pick up trash and re-use it or recycle it. I like you DaVinci Gauche pallet😊
@@mwGoosman 😂
I’m late to the party, but I love when you teach a new technique that I’ve never seen before. You always explain it simply and provide a good example that we can try. Not some ridiculous explanation and crazy hard example. I always have fun learning from you. Thank you!
Thanks so much!
I love the impressionistic urban art style. You can take a photo but this has more feeling. Great!
It’s a lovely painting! I tend to pick up trash when I’m hiking 😂 I’ve never repurposed anything, just tossed it in the trash. You truly are The Frugal Crafter ❤❤
I love this painting. It doesn't have to look photo realistic. I think you captured the image very well. Great job.
Thank you so much 😀
I’m so glad you posted this particular photo as an urban sketch painting! I took a photo of this street in Albi, too. I loved the flags hung across the street. This is another great exercise for perspective, which I’m always working on! Thanks! (MJ)
Thanks!
I am fortunate that my craft space is a loft and has a window. I could not work in a basement. I get a bit claustrophobic. I love your painting. The colors are so pleasing and then the banners are so cute.
I see a joy and excitement in your sketch. ❤
There's a thrill in being in a new environment (to me) and I appreciate the wash, then line approach that lets you splash on color before "corralling" it with line and definition. Thank you for demonstrating this technique.
Yes! Thank you!
I love this. I don’t often do buildings because my perspective is usually off. Doing things in sketch books is a wonderful way to learn and also not worry about perfection. But just enjoy making art! Thanks Lindsay!
Yay!
Pretty. Better than I imagined.
Loved the sketch. Nothing to be ashamed of.
I love this, Lindsay! It's happy and free.
Thanks 😊
Oh wow! That's beautiful! Very summery, and happy and cheerful:). Thank you for sharing with us. Can't wait to watch it in critique club.
Hope you enjoy it!
Hullo Lindsay, I found this video enlightening and quite joyful too! I know that most artists are so harsh on their own work, I know that I certainly am! I hope you come back to this subject and continue to create paintings and videos that bring you joy, I know that you are so amazing and truly talented in this area, thank you.
You are so welcome!
It’s lovely Lindsay! I’m really enjoying the stories and artwork from your trip to France. Im addicted to the chateau renovation channels on UA-cam like escape to rural France, living vicariously I guess 😊 Thanks Lindsay!
How fun to watch, too much work for me though!
THANK YOU! I love urban sketching but I'm not doing it because it's not coming out how I want. Your pep talk and showing you're struggling too helped me tremendously.
I'm so glad it was helpful!
What a lovely painting! I am so intimidated by urban sketching but this definitely gives me encouragement to try. Thanks for sharing
Love it! Your doubts are our doubts. And are totally unfounded. Nice quick tutorial. Very inspiring.
Glad it was helpful!
Love it ! No need to be so hard on yourself you portrayed this street in a very playful and yet lifelike way ! The wrangling worked out great ! It’s beautiful and joyful 😄!❤ I enrolled in critique club 😊
Thank you so much!!
I absolutely love your painting! I'd never laugh at you, only with you 🎶💕🎨🖌️
Oh thank you!
What you say about needing to make mistakes in order to learn: I used to tell students who were discouraged by their progress in languages: ‘When you start to learn a language, it’s as if you’re given a big sack of mistakes you have to make. You can make your mistakes liberally and your sack will empty fast. Or you can keep on trying to avoid mistakes: your sack will stay heavy and you’ll progress only slowly. Or, of course, you could dump your sack on the side of the road and give up altogether. If you really want to learn a language, make your mistakes boldly and gaily. The people who do that are the ones who end up learning well and, paradoxically, enjoy themselves while they do.’
PS Lindsay: don’t give up on French because of Duolingo!
This looks great Lindsay, and it’s so loose. I love the shutters and the flags.
🏞️🌇
Thanks so much! 😊
I love this Lindsay. Would love to see more tutorials like this!
More to come!
Yay!
The visual is so beautiful 😻
What a fun painting! I really like it. I have a photo I took of the same street! The gouache was the perfect touch for the bunting - the flags make the painting come alive. I could have spent another day exploring Albi. Such a charming town. 😊
Agreed!
Love your village bunting painting!
Thank you! 😊
THANKS...Lindsay...I know what you mean about the architecture in Europe...frigging amazing...soooo old....I love how you attacked this daunting subject matter...and how it turned out in the end...so loose and freeing...I hope you keep trying this...when you are inspired...yep it is definitely a "get out of your comfort zone ..." kinda thing...
Thanks for being so brave...to make the effort...and I LOVE the results...and it has made me more brave...like BRAVER...to try these perspective building scenes...loosely and with some saving grace for myself and fun in the end. ...Janis
The building are amazing!
Cool painting Lindsay! 🎉❤
Thanks!
Adorable painting ❤
I love this! I’ve seen many people in my local urban sketchers group trying this technique… it does have a bit of a learning curve. I think it’s great for those who are trying to work more loosely- no choice :)
Oh, also a trash picker-upper/sometimes repurposer 😆
Love this urban painting/sketch - this is something I will try. Blocking in the colour first and then pen over the top. Thanks for sharing. 🙏💜
You’re welcome 😊
I love this! I'm also a big fan of Teoh Yi Chie and I love his "messy" urban sketching style. I think your composition turned out better than the reference, because you opened it up so you could see more into the scene -- for instance I couldn't even notice the teal shutters in the photo. Love how you used the brush pen for thick lines.
I actually love doing the paint then draw technique for very loose flowers, it works wonderful with both pens and crayons. Kind of like the idea of a reverse coloring book, but one I made myself!
Great idea for flowers!
I've started to learn abt line and wash urban sketching this month. I DIY'd a tiny palette (so fun!). This vid is perfect for me in terms of learning but also the philosophy about messes v. success😅. Merci, Lindsay! I think your resulting sketch looks even happier than the ref pic 👍🏼
Glad it was helpful!
I absolutely love this painting! This is what I think of when I think of Urban Sketching. Great job. I can imagine a little tea shop somewhere along this Lane. Thank you!
Thank you so much 😀
A wonderful feeling of France 🇫🇷
Thanks 😊
This looks like so much fun ☺☺
It was!
I love your fresh take on a line and wash sketch 💗! I can’t wait to try it!
Yay! Thank you!
I love it! I’m looking forward to (hopefully) more art from France.
More to come!
I LOVE it!! Thank you!! I’m so happy you had fun in France!!! I learn so much from you!!!
You are so welcome!
I love how it turned out & loved watching your process - you are so funny - you make your videos very enjoyable! (AND I always learn) 👍❤️
Thank you so much!
8:55 on the "funk" after France. You were working hard that week.. Some proper rest and recovery time to recharge your batteries is needed and fair. Jumping straight back into full busy mode will continue to drain your energy. I enjoyed your painting. It is cheerful and colourful. It is an excellent way to keep a lcherished memory.
Thank you!
@@thefrugalcrafter Just finished your most recent sat chat. You sound like you really need some R&R to recover your voice, get enough sleep. My goodness, you had super stressful weeks before the retreat, a full 16h days, 7 day immersion with 17 strangers in a foreign country with 6 h time difference eating new food. Does any of that sound like a vacation? I am sure you were great, Lindsay. I have conducted hundreds of workshops (as have you) and this Post-Event slump is to be exp ected. Do the things you enjoy, celebrate yourself for having such a victory (dream retreat!) and build on the good memories. Perhaps you can do an event in Maine in the fall 🍂🍁, closer to home where you feel more at ease. People will go to Maine for leaf peeping! Doing that with your bubbly self of? So many people would love that. Find an event manager to organise it, so you can focus on the fun stuff. But for now, it sounds like you need some quiet time to have fun and enjoy the moment. I am sure you will feel better after that.
I absolutely love this! You’re too hard on yourself; this is the kind out painting I’d buy a print of to put in my kitchen I’m usually way too intimidated by urban sketching to do it but this makes it look doable.
You can do it!
Love this video. I have been trying to learn Line then wash. This looks interesting.
Love your urban sketch. I call my craft room, the crap room. It's unbelievable.
It get out if hand, I'm telling you! My daughter and I cleaned and revamped our home gym in the basement and I tackled "the Room if Hoard" and i swear I could get rid of half of the stuff but I was out of decisions so at the end I was just finding spots for things.
Looks good to me! I like videos where you mix things up. Keeps things interesting. Thanks!
Awesome, thank you!
This is such a fun technique, and I love your sketchy street scene! Urban sketching is quite hard to do and takes a lot of practise. I haven’t done much of it in a long time and I’m completely “out of shape” with it. Maybe I’ll give this a go too. 😊
Good luck!
I love it! You don't have to defend it, it turned out lovely!
Oh thank you!
love this
This is totally awesome I love it. I am so into urban sketching. I would love to see more so don’t be shy sharing this,
Thank you! Will do!
I liked seeing this process-helpful. I think it turned out great!
Thanks so much!
I love sketching my memories if vacation better than the photo. I also now have started calling my art room my room of hoard. I am needing to clear it out of too many mismatched pieces of furniture that have my supplies hidden where I forget I even have them. M y project for this summer.
Good luck! My peice are all mismatched too:)
Love it too!
Yay! Thank you!
This is so fun and lovely
Thanks 😊
I LOVE THIS ❤
I like it!
I love this!! Funny thing, it is the Saturday after you posted this and forgot about Sat Chat for a while because I wanted to paint in my sketchbook. I chose one of the other photos from our trip and thought I’d try blocking in the main aspects first snd using pen later for the details. 🤣 I wish I’d watched this first!!! Now I have to go look at rhe full tutorial on Critique Club!!
Perfect!
I really like this! I’m terrible with lines and perspective and notice that when I have a tutorial that has them, I put it off 😅 I need to just jump in and be good with what I create and learn from it all.
Looking forward to doing this in critique club!
Glad it was helpful!
I love it! Thanks for sharing!!
You are so welcome!
Ha. I do the same thing. And then they don't get the response I thought it would get. It looks great Lindsay. You know I look at some of the greats and think what? I could do better than that and I'm nobody! But wash then line is super hard when you normally do the opposite. Great job.
Thanks, Sharon! How have you been?
Everything of mine is a hot mess until the very end . I think your sketch came together nicely. There are many styles of urban sketching. Putting down the color, then the line is like a reverse coloring book. Hope your post international art retreat blues gly away soon.❤
This is amazing. Well done❤
Thank you so much!!
Hi, Lindsay. Thank you for your video. Best wishes. ❤
Thank you! You too!
It’s beautiful ❤
Thanks 😊
I like your painting!
Thank you! Cheers!
Love line and wash. I have been practicing that as well. I would like to see more line and wash on your channel. I have been putting color realllllly loose on the paper and creating the structure with the ink.
Awesome! Thank you!
I love this. I always wanted to know what Wash and Line means. And for Urban sketching I was thinking Ink (micron) first then watercolor. But watching this video I really think I like this better. Thank you so much for always teaching me new things.
Glad it was helpful!
I love this! I’ll go to critique club and do this. So fun!!!
Also you mentioned you made your sketch-watercolor pad. Do you have a tutorial on this? Thank you.
I don't but it's a coptic stitch binding.
RE: Room of hoard...I have a new young cat and my hoard and clutter seems to be clearing at a fast pace. I drew the line when he tried to climb the Grandfather clock.
Bravissimo 👏 👏 👏 💜
Thanks 😊
Loved this
Your painting was so alive .
Thanks 😊
thank you for posting this Lindsay! so pretty. :D One question -- I found myself wondering if it's true that the sky tends to have a different base color in different places, especially places that are far flung. Did you find this to be the case, in that you saw differences in the sky between where you were in France and your home state of Maine? and if so, how would you describe the difference(s)? :D so curious!
Not really but it was greener closer to the horizon and more purplier higher up. The undertones change over the course if the day everywhere. I think you would see the variety anywhere.
I learn more when you are learning too.
Thanks 😊
I think it's cute. Very European/French looking.
I like it. I want to do a painting like this one time soon. I have tryed to start it oit bit then i get lost. Yeah my gouache has that type of finishe on it too. Oh well. Have good night. JK FLORIDA USA 🇺🇸.
