Easy Urban Sketching - Pencil, then Colour, then Brown Ink!

Thanks for tuning in to watch my urban sketching, ink and watercolour tutorial! Don't forget to check out my channel where I have hundreds of different urban sketch tutorials, as well as other watercolour and ink sketching guides for everyone from beginners to more advanced!

If you'd like to support my channel you can buy me a 'Coffee' on KoFi - ko-fi.com/tobyurbansketch
When I reach my goal I'll upgrade my sketching tutorials with a new camera and use my old camera to give an extra view point in my videos! Perhaps my face, perhaps my watercolour palette, or some close ups of my process!

Today we are having fun, re-ordering our sketching process and starting with the colours!

What on earth would we do this for??

Well, if just experimenting and having fun isn't enough of a reason... I guess I can explain myself a bit more!

When we start with colours, for me, it gives a different feel. The colours become looser and when we add our ink, suddenly the shapes become adaptable, and we can add our own stamp and creativity to it.

It also means we take a super simple approach to our inital sketch, my pencil sketch today being a few rectangles and triangles thrown on the page. And learning these simplification skills is really valuable!

Finally, it means we can use some really lovely soluble inks - today I'm using brown in, which washes out to become a lovely warm almost pink colour.
