Overview of Travel Sketching with Graphite Pencils

In the summer, a little trip is made every day: walks in the area, short trips, hikes, walking tours, a day off in the park ...

It is difficult to sit still when nature itself calls to enjoy the fresh air, sun and good mood.

And, of course, picking up a notebook and pencils and eraser guts.pk/shop/product/charcoal-eraser-lyra-kneadable-eraser/, I want to capture all this on a sheet of paper. It's time for travel sketches.

An artist's diary is not necessarily a record of one's own thoughts and feelings, planning creative work or recording events. A drawing diary with skeching pencils guts.pk/shop/category/art-supplies/pencils/ can also be quite possible, especially if it is created from direct impressions here and now.

It is not difficult to take a small album and a pencil with an eraser with you for a walk, find a couple of minutes to sketch too, and as a result, you can get a wonderful series of graphic sheets, travel notes, sketches and just vivid impressions of what you saw. Sun bunnies on the grass, a tree with an unusual silhouette, a funny group of figures https://column.yooco.org/forum/how_to_choose_a_paint_for_the_painting_of_a_metal_door-5744207-t.html, a characteristic architectural silhouette, gentle rhythms of flower petals - there is so much amazingly beautiful around! How can you just walk past these little miracles?

Do you draw on the road, friends: on a trip, on a walk, on a trip? Are travel sketches https://column.yooco.org/forum/stationery_items_a_stylish_and_original_gifts-5740460-t.html different from traditional drawings from nature, from memory, from imagination?

And a competent drawing teacher will also tell you how to bring your own artistic vision into this creative process with accurate technological calculation. Therefore, you can, of course, learn to paint with watercolors on your own, but it will take more effort, money and time than studying under the guidance of a practicing artist. At the Jotto school we also have several watercolor courses for beginners and experienced artists, as well as video courses on classical and modern watercolors, where I go through and explain every little thing in detail.

In addition, it turns out to be difficult to harmonize those colors that have already appeared in the sheet with those that are only supposed to be put. The work is divided into separate flowers and fragments, and the unifying glazes "muffle" the saturation and luminosity, give a colored mud. Often, the lower layers of paint are washed out.

Therefore, before rushing into a creative battle, it is important to determine a plan for working on a watercolor sketch: where to start, what paints to use, what will be the accent and how to reveal this with the help of color and tone, how to combine all the work into a harmonious overall whole, what is the quality of registration it is necessary for the main and secondary, how many layers of paint are supposed to be put in each area. Experiencing all this to research and practice for a long time, mistakes are inevitable here, so it is better to master the technique of painting with watercolors under the guidance of a teacher.
