Koosje, I've been meaning to tell you for several weeks how much I appreciate seeing you doing two-page sketches. I've been holding my pages to precious, allotting only one page (or less) per drawing. I now follow your lead and sometimes do sketches spread across double-pages. Thank you. Love your ideas.
I used to do that to, and when I end up filling 1 page occasionally, it feels kind of awkward. Isn’t it strange how we can get used and attached to something that was new and scary first?
That was wonderful to watch. I struggled along with you whether or not your choices were working but you just pushed through with your experiment and then - voila! It all came together and you had a completed sketch.
Koosje, can you tell me which tip on your Lamy Safari ? FINE, MEDIUM ? Thank you, what a great idea to have some backgrounds ready ! Bravo, I love it and been following you for years now 😊
@@KoosjeKoene Yes …. My mother tongue is French - I live in Montreal, Quebec - so I knew there was a B (and I’ve got one here) but I wasn’t sure if the word was « Broad » or Bold » 😆 Thank you, have a nice day, Koosje ❤️
Dear Koosje, I can’t tell how much I love watching you draw and your sketchbook tours with you telling the stories/ techniques. Massive thanks for sharing.
I LOVE and appreciate creative people. Breath of fresh air through the Grace Of God. Will be watching your other videos later. May be another lockdown in England UK so I th8nk u have enough art materials for 1 year. PEACE LOVE LIGHT PEOPLE- we will make it through the Winter through the Grace Of God. PEACE
Hello Koosje, Thank you for your videos, they are very inspiring. I'm wondering about the paper in your journal. When I use watercolor it shows through on the next page, especially if I was to use this much paint. I am using Strathmore Mixed Media now. Your paper looks more substantial.
I think as Strathmore’s mixed media journals have the same kind of paper as the Hahnemühle Nostalgie sketchbook I use in this video. The pages need to be thick enough to hold wet media (and often mixed media books are great for that), but if you’re not using watercolor paper, the pages might buckle a bit. I don’t mind that at all - to me it adds even more love to the pages.
Love this idea , thanks! Will a regular fine tip marker work ok over the chalky paint without clogging it up? I don’t have a fountain pen. But it’s so fun.

@@KoosjeKoene Indeed! That is just one of the things I love about the world of art/life...overcoming fears.
Dearest Koosje I have following you for a couple of years and really look forward to your DTT. Always something new to see and appreciate.
Thank you, Koosje. Another lovely relaxing inspiring video.
Awesome idea, I will do the same when planning today’s walk! Thank you for your continued inspiration and ideas.
Sounds like a plan!
Thank you Koosje for these suggestione which help me absolutely🙏

You are such an inspiring guide!

Always good advice, Koosje.
Thank you for your huge creativity.
For sharing...you help me a lot!
How much were you thinking about the direction of the light when adding in the darks of the trees ?
I wasn’t thinking about it, but looking at the shadows and darker areas.

Nib B. Which I think stands for BROAD or BOLD

I love this Draw Tip Tuesday especially! 🤩
Thank you, Lia!

I think it will! I do this with a fine tip uniball. It works great!
Also I use old tea or coffee on other pages to make cool “stains” on the page. Not so alarming but a real cool effect!
Yes a fineliner will work, but I would use a very fine tip. Otherwise you can also use a dark colored pencil.
@@danarenfand3384 good idea
Thank you!
When I use a brush pen it looks awful..still working on it 😽
relax your hand and don't work too small.
Nice and beautiful pages!!!thanxx for the inspiration Koosje!🌺
Please tell me what you mean when you use the term, "wash". Is a "wash" just watercolor paint spread across the page? Thank you.
Yes exactly.
@@KoosjeKoene Thanks. Mystery solved.
Great idea. Thanks
You are welcome!
Thank you Koosje
The pen? Good idea…
