Feed the poor kitty! 😆 Love the loose sketching! Thanks for the inspiration! 😇🩵🙏🙌
After watching pretty much all your videos I broke down and purchased the Twsbi Eco fountain pen with extra fine nib and the platinum black carbon ink. I frigging LOVE IT! My first fountain pen and I have no desire to try any others and that ink...it's perfect! I've been enjoying my pen for every day writing as well as sketching.
Love all your videos Taria. You've definitely inspired me to just relax and sketch.
Thank you!
Toni
Hi Toni - ah that's awesome! That's always good that something recommended has worked out for someone else too, because y'know sometimes these things are a bit subjective. So glad you love the pen AND ink and you are having fun with sketching....this is like my mission complete! ;)
I’m definitely guilty of overthinking! I totally wish I could get loser! It’s kind of like trying to be random when selecting fabrics when I design a quilt. It’s a lot harder for me as well. I love how your stone color turned out and the whole sketch a painting is awesome!
Thank you so much Angela!
You explain EVERYTHING! Love your vids
Your videos are full of great tips. Thanks so much, Taria!
Hi Tania, as a wannabe beginner you have been such an inspiration to me. Thank you for your videos about equipment, practicals and other urban sketchers. Love your style. All I’ve got to do now is do it!!
I’ve finally found tutorials with the style I seem to veer towards. FINALLY! I love the effects of loose watercolours and I ALWAYS ink them. Like you say, even just here and there, roughly, still has an effect on the eye.
Also, I do feel I have patience but I get bored of spending too long on a piece.
Thank you for taking the time to put these videos and sharing your knowledge together. Best wishes xx
Fantastic artwork dear friend. Good job ❤👍🏻
Nice work, thank you for the walkthrough!
Glad you enjoyed it!
This was extremely helpful for me as I do a lot of inking sketches and need some new ideas with one colour. thks you have a new subscriber now.
I like this loose sketching style, but it's easier said than done. Taria, you have made everything look easy 😉
Excellent. Love seeing your sketches 🙏
Thank you so much 😀
Great video Taria! And perfect timing since I'm looking for a new ink pen! Thanks! ☺️👍
Yay! Glad it was helpful!
Love your work, reminds me quite a bit of the lovely Australian sketch artist Liz Steel.
Rescue Bush! Loved it.
:D
Funny thing, I was ready to write to you about the exact same pen!!! I absolutely love mine.
Ah that's great!
Loved the demo. I will grab a bottle of the Platinum Carbon ink. It's about $18 USD. My 8 pack of Faber Castel Artist Pitt Pens w waterproof india ink was same price. I bet the bottle will outlast the ink in all 8 Pitt Pens, together. Most sets of good waterproof pens are around the same price. No where near as much ink. The value is there. I am building up a collection of fountain pens with various nib ✒ sizes. The bottle could ink a lot of pens for quite a while.
Loved this sketch, Taria! I really like the colours you used and how you supplanted the miracle bush LOL But, oh how I struggle with that Sailor Fude, you’ve no idea! Not giving up though. Thank you for sharing this ❤️
Glad it was helpful Didi! Yeh you have to wrangle with the pen a bit - I struggled for a long while and still do - I think I caught myself and the pen on a good day ha ha ;) You have to surrender to what comes out of the pen!
Amazing
Love your paintings and how you talk us through.
The pen looks great. I no longer use Amazon. If I find something I want there I go directly to the company to make the purchase. I bought a pen I really liked at a bookstore/library/gift shop. Because it was a local place I got some unique finds that were one of a kind and others were regional. Support your neighbors!
Shan - couldn't agree more! Support local business wherever possible. ❤️
Thanks for doing this video! You've convinced me which pen and ink to buy. And the cat meowing made my dog freak out. HA!
😂😂 sorry dog!
I love my Sailor Fude fountain pens!
Yay!
Wow, this is one of the most helpful urban sketching videos I've watched. Excellent tips, very well explained and demonstrated. Thank you. Subscribed!
I'm just getting used to Sailor Fude with the Carbon Ink. The ink is excellent, but the Fude nib takes a lot of getting used to, so often use a Lamy Safari instead. Maybe I need to be more loose with it.
To be honest, I'm not a big fan of the splattering, although it can work in some scenes.
Glad it was helpful Mark! Yes - it definitely takes some getting used to. Its not the first pen I reach for but I do always have fun when I do use it. Noted on the splattering ;)
I trust you fed the cat..... I bought a Fude pen recently, and have been nervous about using permanent ink with it, but I assume that if you use it regularly, or wash it out if you know you're not going to be using it for some time, all should be well with the Platinum Carbon ink. I do have FW inks, and Kandahar - but I don't think I'd want to trust them in a fountain pen, seeing what the Kandahar, especially, does to my dip pens.
thank you
Great video 🤗
Thank you 🤗
Beautiful sketch and wash! love this pen too :) I had planned to sketch with fountain pen recently but somehow I always grab microns instead :D :D enjoyed it!
Thanks so much! 😊 I really need to use this pen more - it was totally organic how this came about - I was actually playing with my camera and new filming set up but then this came out! So I was like -oooh I need to share this!! :D
@@tarias_sketchy_adventures and I'm glad you did! :)
Can u please do a video on perspective
Its fantastic! I am very impressed with your work and how could look easy.
How many time do you need to complete it?
I understand you wait the paper dry until the next layer of colors.
Thank you Leonardo! This one was pretty quick by my standards - about 45 mins....yes, ideally you wait for the paint/paper to dry before you add next layers. But this doesn't take too long.
I'm catching up on two months of content... congrats on having over 51k subscribers, Taria. Yay! I subbed back in the early 400's... how time flys :)
Great to see you cracking out the Fude pen. I'm still practicing with the green one, and love it for the same reasons, and have the blue one for calligraphic writing which is awesome (too lazy to check the Fude pen nib angles, lol). It is a learning curve, or muscle memory game, to use the Fude to its full potential... But that might just be me.
Gorgeous Sketching, as always. I've bought Platinum Carbon ink on your recommendation, but haven't used it yet as I'm using up the supplied cartridges for practice purposes. The supplied cartridge ink isn't light fast. For me no problem, but I'm sure others would prefer to ditch them and go for light fast Platinum Carbon.
I'm looking forward to binge watching your videos this weekend :D
HI Wen - ah great to hear from you! Jeez - it doesn't feel long ago I was in the 500s....well, I don't think it was actually. Im so honoured I have made it this far so quick. Super happy you enjoyed the video. Yeh I haven't tried the blue one - I always saw people raving about the green one. Unfortunately I cant get hold of them here in SA so cant check it out. So great to hear from you!! :)
@@tarias_sketchy_adventures Well deserved... now for the 100k milestone :)
I just realised I was really early 400 subs... found a screenshot when deleting files from the PC. I was screen capturing allsorts back then when I first learned of that feature, lol.
I'm loving the green fude more and more, with practice. I found it difficult to begin. The blue Fude just suits my calligraphy writing style... I found this easier than the green!!! It just suits me. Horses for courses and such.
With so many subscribers, I don't expect replies to my comments, but know that I'll be watching and giving you thumbs up along the way. So happy to see one of my fav youtubers doing well x
😍🤗🤗
Brava
I just got this pen and was wondering if you could put the platinum carbon ink you've talked about in it so now I know you can. I still don't know how to fill it thought. I would love to see how you do it, messy or not.
Hi Trish - ah I shouldn't have cut that part out then. I shall try and film it more clearly. Put the converter in the pen make sure the plunger bit is screwed all the way down (so its near the nib), put the nib into the pot of ink. The platinum carbon ink bottle has a container inside so it helps you put the pen in the bottle (but not too far). I got the bent part of my nib caught inside though, so be careful not to push down on it too much (in my defense, that's never happened before!) - then just screw the end of the converter so it starts drawing the ink up inside. Take the pen out, wipe it off gently and do some test line on scrap paper. When you first fill it, it can be quite "juicy" to use, i.e. lots of ink comes out but it will settle down as you use it. Hope this helps a bit!
You use carbon ink? Does it not clog up if left over time
Everything you mention in this video, I’m struggling with all of them! 😅 the painting by colors is exactly what I’m still doing and I really want to get out of that habit. Every time I make a mental note to paint loosely, I still find myself feeling so incomplete and having the need to color in every corner of the paper 🤦🏻♀️ Splatters are seriously harder than it looks. Who would have thought! Lol
It's a tricky one - when I started talking about it in this video it really reminded me how arduously I would "colour in" my sketch with watercolour - Im not sure what shifted or when....but I am going to try and remember as I'm sure it would be helpful information to others in this boat.....
@@tarias_sketchy_adventures That would be great!
Hi Taria, your link to the pen you’re using shows you can get it for£17+.. yet on Amazon own site I can’t find that pen. All around £170- £300+ can you help please. Steve
Where in Mexico did you visit? I went to Ocho Rios. I love loose sketches of buildings but it looks cartoony when I try to sketch them.
I went all over in 2017! This sketch is from Mexico City. And then in 2019 I was in San Miguel de Allende for 7 months or so studying. I love Mexico so much. Cartoony is ok though no? :)
@@tarias_sketchy_adventures ☺️ I guess it depends on what I'm sketching or if I'm doing it too quickly. Any particular place in Mexico is your favorite to visit?
What paints are you using? Thanks!
Funny story, I recommended someone on the Urban Sketching Facebook group to use a photo when they couldn't setup pleinair. They scolded me! Said it wouldn't be REAL urban sketching if I used a photo. So I left the group LOL!
I am mainly using my St Petersburg White Nights set by do also have another set there with some W&N and Daniel Smith paints.
Yes, unfortunately sometimes people can be a bit funny about the term "urban sketching". We ALL know it means sketching from life and on location. But for a variety of reasons sometimes people sketch from photos...and yes it should not be called urban sketching technically, but you are practicing skills that would be utilised in USK. People get far too hung up on labels. I have also had comments about it here on this channel - but I am just trying to demo stuff that people can ry out to then take out in the field. I think practicing and experimenting at home is fundamental to pushing your skills forward. I don't blame you for leaving the group! People are weird sometimes! ;)
Is your rosemary dagger pen 1/4" or 1/2"?
1/4” :)
Estás en México ?
YES! Mexico City :)
What different of fude pen and fountain pen?
"Fude" means brush - it refers to the nib being bent at an angle (did you see it in the footage?) and it means you can get various line weights depending at what angle you use it....
Kerala image pls do it. Alapuzha, kochi mattancheri, tvm. Sree pathmanabha temple., lot of images you can do.
Well - I would love to visit Kerala in person, and sketch from life, not that would be cool....
HI Taria - great video as always but the ink is not waterproof - i use the cartridges for ease with one of the platinum pens, love them, but it does bleed even when left to fully dry
Hi Ruth - I am not sure if their cartridges have different ink in them? But the Platinum Carbon ink from the ink bottle is definitely waterproof - I have been using the same ink for many years and in all my fountain pens.
@@tarias_sketchy_adventures - Thanks will check it out - love your channel
Where do your reply’s appear?
How do we find out who won the giveaway please?
The competition closed at 9pm BST today - which is right now. So I shall announce shortly.
@@tarias_sketchy_adventures - thank you
What is this fashion for splattering. I just don’t get it.
I think when it works, is well placed and tasteful it's great - but it's subjective. And I didn't get it quite right here. Maybe I just like splashing paint around - its all fun :)
Gives it more water to watercolor
Hope Jemima didn’t have to wait much longer to get fed?😾🙀
I fed her and she was still being noisy - I think she just wanted some of the limelight!
@@tarias_sketchy_adventures Im glad Im not the only one with a needy and loud cat lol
@@BigTummyAche 😂😂
I for one dislike the 'splatter effect'.
Fair enough! I agree, it's personal preference I guess :)
@@tarias_sketchy_adventures Have you found a way to purchase replacement nibs please, I for one would like to find them & I've asked in many places?
Hi again, amending, £ 13 + confusing
Holy shit, that drawing is so bad, but in the end with colour the picture looks quite okay.
I think it’s great!
