Urban Sketching at a Café - a free class!

Video Description

Welcome to Draw Tip Tuesday, Let's get out and draw - in a café today! I often get questions about how to draw people in a cafe (they move, help!), how to capture the interior, mood and vibe... how to deal with people noticing you drawing, and much more. Today I want to show you the full process, so I went for a coffee and a sketch and filmed from beginning to end. Because I think seeing someone draw, and then try it yourself (that's the most important part!) can teach you a lot. This is an extra long video. Basically, it's a full class video, that any sensible content maker would ask money for but I won't. See it as a gift from me to you because I appreciate you're subscribed to my channel on YouTube. And if you're not subscribed yet - please do! Usually, I aim to publish videos that aren't longer than 8-10 minutes, because I want to limit the time you're hanging out on video, so there's time left for you to draw yourself! But I want to show you the full process of drawing in a café. No timelapse, or skipping parts which can be confusing. Cutting the video into two pieces and spreading them out over two weeks would have been an option, but simply doesn't feel right (and personally, I hate it when a video is cut off in the middle of a process and leaves you with a cliffhanger). Enjoy! Your assignment this week is to go to a café and draw. Take yourself on an art date, and treat yourself!
