I love filling a page with mini sketches. I will use my Platinum Carbon Black ink and mark out a variety of squares and rectangles (and occasionally a circle) and fill a page on a large sketchbook. I leave it open on my desk. Waiting for the water to boil for pasta? I have time to do a 2" x 2" mini sketch. 30 minutes for the chicken to roast? Time to do a few little sketches. This is one of my favourite ways to sketch. I don't stay inside the lines...sometimes a sketch will cross two or more boxes. The end effect is very pleasing.

I loved the organization of the page with the small paintings

Casual viewer to your channel.

The *Small frames one page* and then filled with _several individual illustrations_ are *fabulous*

Keep sharing

Stay happy (everyone)

Grid journaling - for urban sketchers! I enjoy grid journaling in acrylics/collage. Def going to try this. Your sketches turned out so well - always love a good masking tape reveal! Lovely area you took us to. BTW, thanks to your mention of it in a previous vid, I've just joined the local chapter of my city's Urban Sketchers. I haven't joined anything in Years!

I looove these micro sketches! I always loved small sketches - and found myself being quite alone with this preference. Digging out my neocolor II to play with them in my sketchbook.

[SallyGoessel-owsg]

I really enjoyed this video and it's inspired me. I find that in a morning or afternoon of urban sketching I start out to do a small, simple sketch and end up spending a couple of hours on one of a more complex scene. I'll definitely give this idea a go. Thanks Toby.

Love this idea, must give this a go! And the crayons seem like great fun lovely lively colours, I wonder if my family might consider these for a father's day present 😅

[riavandenberg]

That was fun to watch... I think I'm gonna try this too. Thanx❤

[Anna_Amoroso]

I love this idea!
The finished page looks really good!

Thank you for sharing this!

[AdventuresWithRobin]

I love how you used your tape as a test strip and brush cleaner! I missed your splatters though!

Great to see you in our home town Toby! Lovely idea & end result was really good

Any exercises to work on the 'kinda loose, but not too loose that it turns into pasta and not in a good way' kinda thing?
Also, I had an idea, maybe commentors could help, im new to doing some style of sketchs, I recently got into that 'Urban Style' sketching or whatever its called. my Idea for a series of sketchs was 'Views from a Bottleshop' and I only draw what I can see from my work. I have cool old buildings near by, a bus stop. But I cant get the style down. Thoughts on trying to do bodies, I need help doin a single human standing beside the bus stop.

Lovely video Toby! Might try this next time I'm out urban sketching. I still need to lighten up (mentally, not tonally😅) and this looks promising...

[meikeontube]

Brilliant idea, thanks for sharing. I’ve got these crayons for my birthday and never thought about using them on a sketchwalk. I love the idea with the mini scenes. It takes so much pressure out of the whole attempt.

Thanks Toby, more with the neocolors Please!🤩

[janeB]

[sujanithtottempudi]
