I REAAAALLLLLY enjoyed this video: the pictures, your sketches, the good, the bad, the commentary, watching your style emerge - thank you for sharing!
I love that you dove straight in with ink. I think your sketches are great. They show personality which makes them interesting. If you are up for another challenge, maybe try drawing with watercolor first then adding your ink on top. I think you would love the loose result.
Heavy outlines work for you; I absolutely love that you explored different styles from day to day. Try using a heavy outline to block out a hedge or plants.
42:11 your left sketch nailed the plant outline. Not sure if you noticed but that's progress too.
Next Try this in front of a building.
I recently found your channel and I am really enjoying it! Love this video and your sketching is amazing! Inspires me to do this!
thank you! i really appreciate that a ton! highly recommend trying something like this with any art form really. the amount of improvement youll see in even a month is actually insane.
Awesome video, you are very inspiring. I am going to give it a try, you really improved over the course of time. 😍
Thank you and Best of luck! It really was a fun process and encourage anyone who's been thinking of trying it to try it.
Thanks so much for doing this! I'm just starting out and can get pretty discouraged, but this really shows a quick progression with diligent practice.
i felt the same way. once you start seeing tiny bits of progress though, it really makes all the difference in your motivation. It's just about being consistent and showing up.
Just discovered your channel and I really enjoy it ! You are so inspiring, honest, and create awesome videos (with a smooth relaxing voice ☺️). I started urban sketching 2 weeks ago and this video is really motivating me, thanks for sharing all of that.
What a great video! Very inspiring to hear your thought process. I think you underestimated yourself. You did a great job! Thanks for this!
Thank you so much! So happy you enjoyed it!
Such a lovely video...loved your progress ... I'm an Architect and an urban sketcher and I really liked your dedication to improving and doing the 100 hour challenge....the progress is so mind blowing....it reflects in your work...just subscribed to your channel 😊
Thank you so much! That's such a big compliment!
Loved watching your journey! Did you purchase any art books to help you learn art fundamentals? I feel like I keep getting stuck at wanting to learn the proper way to draw first before actually practicing. For example, how do you properly capture shading vs just trying to find the shading and going with it?
I really enjoyed your video. It was very interesting being able to compare your artwork with the actual photographs.
I loved the looseness of your sketches. The perspective is obviously wrong in a number of them but, rather than detract from the sketch, the wonky perspective actually added character.
Your overall progress was incredible in such a short period of time.
Well done, and thank you for sharing. 🙏🏻
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it! I really like the loose ones too tbh. Something about them makes it fun to look at.
🖌️Loved seeing your progress. When I first tried drawing buildings (I’m a portrait artist, normally), I didn’t recognize that the reference photos were shot with a wide angle lens. The lens distorts, and if I didn’t correct for that, my lines looked all wonky.😂
awesome work. some of the pictures you showed that you didn't like I thought were alright! at 9:53 I think you captured the spirit of it. would be good to see you re-do that one with your current skills.
I am restarting my journey, but only beginning urban sketching. What I am finding helps now is to not have expections, and to do it for aimless fun and if things look awful, it's not a problem. I used to take myself too seriously, still do to some extent but I'm not trying to be or prove anything. Having said that my goal is to actually take a sketchbook and sketch in public!
you got this! Sketching in public feels a little scary at first but absolutely worth the pay off later. Thank you for watching!
that is so much improvement from just sketching references this is a huge help to me I kind of felt like I was not going to improve by just trying my best to learn and draw every day but seeing this has given me a little more hope. Also drawing buildings is low-key hard as f***. Also I realy want to get into watercolor. Big like and sub
it is hard af sometimes. there were plenty of days i didnt even know where to start lol. thank you so much for watching and i hope you continue drawing every day or the most that you can. The compounding effects of every day practice only become apparent after a set amount of time like a couple of months. and i do play guitar! I play flamenco guitar to be specific.
I play finger style haha good luck with yo art guy
I really enjoyed this video. If I may say , you’re a little hard on yourself 😊I think your drawings are lovely and a way of building commitment with yourself and your art 🖼️
I think you used the skectchbook for exactly what is was intended for; experimenting and thought collecting. Great job! James Gurney is a great person to look at for urban sketching\G
Thank you! Ill make sure to check out James. I appreciate the comment!

Where co you get your photo references?
I had a board on pinterest with a whole bunch of picture of urban photography. Eventually the algorithm started recommending me tons of them. Pinterest was a great resource for me.
23:06 that aint not raman shop thats a saloon XDDD
You definitely have some art talent, but I see very clearly you need to work on perspective. Your angles are often all wrong. I hope you take this comment in the manner it’s intended, as a pointer where you can maybe look at some tutorials and gain a better understanding of where you are going wrong. See the tutorial by Sketching Scottie on his Fundamentals video, it will help you greatly. All in all though, there are some nice drawings and just keep on going, you will get there in the end 😊 Oh and I also see that style starting to emerge - the buildings you make with a darker outline look cool!
haha that was definitely my biggest struggle during that time. Perspective was my greatest challenge. Thank you for the comment! The darker outlines definitely became my thing :)
Would have loved to watch this video but 7 mins of adverts just too much to bear!
7 minutes is ridiculous. I had no idea it was that much. Thank you for letting me know! and Im sorry!
