I've started drawing people in public a week ago, and I've realized two things.
1. Don't be a perfectionist.
2. You don't need as much details as possible.
Then I came across your channel which helped me more.

[@SketchingScottie]

Awesome! Good timing then! 👍🏼

[@Moodboard39]

Did that to today

[@eileengoldenberg270]

There are no mistakes!! Just keep sketching!

[@SteviePaints]

Thank you, Scottie. These are great tips, especially about working small. I am a shy sketcher, so it’s easier to sketch small in public.

[@SketchingScottie]

thanks Stephanie! Yes I find it easier to glance around and sketch 5 people quickly than focus on one person the whole time and hope they don’t feel uncomfortable haha.

Fantastic!

[@DorasPainting]

My daughter has just started to learn sketch. It's a nice video.😃

[@analeward6168]

Your videos are very inspiring! of course, we need to work very hard to catch the line like this, especially when a person is on the move, we need to remember the line and reproduce 🙏 Thank you a lot

[@SketchingScottie]

That’s right Ana! 🤗

[@Trylobyte]

Nice one!

[@DunoonVanRijn-dx1hr]

Moleskin what a load of Ponces. I use an ordinary sketch book because of Price. Thank you for sharing your talents

[@carolpenn1155]

Really useful. Thanks Scottie

[@SketchingScottie]

thanks Carol!

[@Lobstrique]

i've been struggling with sketching people outside because i tend to go into too much detail, it seems! can't wait to use your amazing tips on practice! will try a roller pen, too, I'm not too happy with liners

[@SketchingScottie]

All the best, I hope it goes well!🙌🏼. The roller pen was a game changer for me😊

[@herbertscott9575]

Awesome man. This video made me realize I can sketch "the public" from street video's as well.

[@SketchingScottie]

Thanks Herbert🙏🏼

[@davidheidary7124]

Your tutorial videos on sketching are great 👍.
I had a hard time sketching people that did not look wonky.
Since I started watching your videos, they look very decent😃. Many thanks

[@SketchingScottie]

Hello, greetings from Germany and what do you mean to skechting with an i-Pad? Apple Pencil 1´ gen. And App is „sketchbook“.

[@kerrylaw100]

Hi Scottie another great vlog thanks heaps … just wondering … do you do the urban sketching fun your own enjoyment or do you paint then sell them. 😊

[@SketchingScottie]

Thanks Kerry! Just enjoyment and documenting for tutorials. I don’t sell them at the moment.

[@SketchingRocks]

Get at it!!

[@leojablonski2309]

Thank you for the tip.

[@susanharkema2888]

Do you find the Sakura tip to be too square? I like the look of your current pen. Love your vids.

[@SketchingScottie]

Thanks Susan! The Sakura pen feels sharp on the paper compared to the others so it might be. I mostly just find it frustrating when the tip slowly goes back into the shaft and my line quality changes 😊. But it might be that I press too hard haha

[@Moodboard39]

Nice ..I think is cool draw people . I did the same but change his look a bit ,...he was sitting inside a pizza shop lol 😂
I sketch him

[@vitanavitas9922]

Embrace your mistakes 👍

[@SketchingScottie]

Absolutely🙌🏼

[@malcolmthompson6514]

As a recovering perfectionist, I needed to hear that.

[@SketchingScottie]

@@malcolmthompson6514 Glad it helped Malcom 👍🏼
