Your channel has inspired me to try urban sketching. I live in a very rural area, so I guess in my case it'll be rural sketching 😂 I love seeing you highlight other artists' works and books as well as show us your own process and work! Can't wait to give watercolors a try.
Teoh talking about Ian Fennelly's book. My two fave sketchers in one video!!!!😁
Exactly...! Two out of my favorite sketchers !!! Both are great artists.
I was going to write the exact same thing!
Looking at Ian’s art is inspirational and very fun. You can get a feel of his personality just by his art: it is fresh, lively, with a lighthearted sense of humor.
Thanks for sharing Teoh, it's so nice of you to help out other artist by showing their work.
I went ahead and purchased after your review! What lovely work, I'm very excited to page through it soon! Thank you for all your great content!
He has a very interesting style, from what I see in the video. His architecture drawings are a bit exaggerated, almost as if he was doing a caricature of the building, yet not deviating too much from reality, if that makes sense. But then, in his drawings of people, you see he is not going for realism at all. Very cool.
Thank you for the in-depth review! It is always a pleasure to watch your book reviews.
Excellent review. And book is ordered. I love Ian’s work but was just wondering if I needed another book...... of course I do. 😀
Very cool looking book! I like the chapter of Space and Gaps. I remember your video of Urban Sketching in Amsterdam years back. How special to have this connection with Ian.
I've added it to my birthday list! Really informative and thorough video. Thank you for this.
This book is lovely and includes sketches of a lot of places I know very well.
I’ve been following Ian Fennelly on Instagram for quite a while. I’ve always really enjoyed his work a lot, especially his use of colour.
Good review! I've taken a couple of Ian's online classes before and found them to be very informative and fun.
Definitely have to get my hands on this book.
Great view of the book. Happy lunar new year!
I love the fact that you love his work when yours is fantastic too. Bx
Thank you for the book review. I was interested.
I love his style! I detect a very slight wonkiness to his sketches. Great book.
really a nice book, love the sketches
You are a very great!
Brilliant work done here!
I lost your channel for like a year but now I'm back! You're so calm and your videos are very inspirational. I'm glad to be back!
I had seen a bit of his work previously. Very nice.
Hi Teoh..nice talk about, thanks..
Thanks Teoh for yet another informative vid! Also Gong Xi Fa Cai!!! hope the year of the Ox brings you health, wealth and hapiness!!
Thanks :-)

Might wonder if sharing so much of the book makes people not buy it but I disagree. I have bought several books after seeing flip thurs bc I know what I’m getting. I bought this one today. Thanks!
Do you ever sleep? You have so many youtube videos and they are all well done and even-handed and informative. I'm a fan.
I don't have any other hobbies except making art, and i happen to make videos while I'm making art.
Used to post daily but has since reduced to just posting a video every two days. lol. Many videos were actually recorded months ago, sometimes in bulk, I just release them slowly to give the illusion that I'm working all the time.
Great channel you have here.
Thank you
Wow😍
I LOVE Ian's work. This is a great video.
Yes Amsterdam was amazing. And I got to meet you! Eileen
Wait i always do my sketch then color it after that I do the lineart like him, i thought it was normal 🤔
Lovely book..but Teoh.......I know it seems a long time ago...but the Amsterdam symposium was less than two years ago......but can 7ndersatnd why it now seems more like ‘a FEW years ago’🤣😂😅
Yeah, it felt like such a long time ago

So beauty! What camera and support do you use to record the unboxings/book reviews? Thanks! ^^

@@teohyc Thank you so much, you're videos are incredible! :)
Thank you for this flip-through. It's useful to know that one pays nearly £30 for a 110 page picture book, not really a book of advice or instruction.
I love his art so much, but for the price of 30 bucks plus shipping the paper quality looks flimsy and the layout is a bit mheh, Idk... still really want to get it though...
Really good book, lots of free tutorial videos on here from Ian Fennelly. Watch one and you'll appreciate what a great tutor and inspiration he is.
I enjoy your reviews. However, it’s too bad the text is so small. I just returned a book, not this one, where the text was too small. That’s because I know I’ll only read maybe 10 percent because reading such small letters strains my eyes. I believe that lots of art books are printed smaller now days with some text as little as 6 point!
Hi Simona, I can assure you the text is 12 point font and very readable :)
Thank you. I'll order it. Simona
Hey Teoh! I have a question, should I get a separate scanner to scan my traditional art or does a printer with a built in scanner work? Or is there a huge difference?
There is no difference between scanners, build in scanners work fine.
Those 3-in-1 scanners are made to scan office documents and are not as good for scanning art
@@teohyc Thank you, I was watching your scanner review and was interested in investing in one
@@Yurup and thank you too
@@teohyc do you have any recommendations for good cheap printers for prints? Or any that's on the affordable side really
Great talk about.. bye'eeee..
low resolution.Why?
To protect the copyright of the artists
I bought it. Nice sketches but the book was way too expensive for the content. Great artist though
