Mooi man!

I experience the same, the magic of contrast 🌓 🌞

Watercolor painting of a tall modern building that’s leaning over water, as if a corner has been cut away

Same sketch, only line drawing.

A preliminary sketch

Photo of the scene where I sat sketching

With this drawing I struggled. Let it sit, came back to it. Now I’m satisfied to let it be. Also, this won’t be the last time I will draw this building, it’s beautiful.

It’s not mèh if you had fun making it.

Mooi! Door die grafische achtergrond lijkt het wel een theatervoorstelling.

😮👏🏼

O, I got the date wrong, I sketched this today, not tomorrow :)

My hand holds up a sketchbook to show a quick pencil drawing of a blue heron.

Same sketch book, out of focus. In the background the heron, standing in a garden. Next to him a plastic bowl with water.

A wounded bleu heron seeks refuge in our backyard. Poor beautiful creature. My son named him Herold. An animal shelter will pick him up shortly. #drawntoremember #usknl #urbansketchers #uskamsterdam

Pure and simple, it is me-time, bordering on meditation.

What a great loose way to do the sky!

Wij hebben ze ook in de tuin! Dankzij jouw foto zie ik hoe mooi ze zijn. Mijn ogen kunnen zover niet inzoomen 😄

Thanks for your answer

Backyard sketch, in which I focused on practicing my hatching skills. In the background a solid wooden fence, in front shrubbery and a very low brick wall, bordering the lawn

I like to study other artists, and this week I enjoyed looking closely at the work of drawing wizard @paulheaston.bsky.social. This is one of the sketches, channeling his impressive hatching skills.

Whatever you do, do not dive in the YouTube rabbit hole on this question.
Have a lovely trip!

Expo | Melkweg Amsterdam Poppodium en cultureel centrum met live-muziek, clubnachten, fotografie, film en festivals.

Will this exhibition travel? E.g. to Amsterdam? I would love to visit this!
It would fit www.melkweg.nl/nl/expo/ perfectly. I saw numerous Ninja concerts there back in the day.

Nice work, so much movement! May I ask, how do you add a watermark to the painting?

A young blackcap flew against our window.

Thanks Alessandra!

Happy for you/ jealous! Lovely sketches!

Wow! Great work. I’m so curious what size this is (metric). Is this a small sketchbook or life size?

Sketch of #Muurhuizen in #Amersfoort, in watercolor and fountain pen ink drawing.

My first time at a sketching event, and I went immediately for the biggest: #NationalSketchDay. I liked it! Many conversations with lovely people. This is the sketch I am most satisfied with. #amersfoort #usknl #uskamersfoort #lamysafari #watercolor #ArtYear #artistmeetup #urbansketching

Fascinerend! 😮

I do hope you will hang on to your super power: being vulnerable. You will get hurt sometimes, but it’s also the only way to start a friendship.

Hey, I like your style, reminds me of the German painter George Grosz!

Ik denk dat je mij getekend hebt Marco, in dat rijtje schetsers in de schaduw, ben ik die gast met dat groene shirt 😃.
Het was inderdaad een mooie en goeie dag.

I like it! You could help us focus wise: lead our eyes to what, for you, is the most interesting thing in sight. I feel you treat everything in the drawing as equally important now.

I’m a left handed #lamysafari enthousiast. My advice, no need to order the special nib for lefties. But do try out fine/ broad nibs! And different inks of course. And… Welcome in the parallel fountain pen universe 😅
