  • TobySketcloose, Liz Chaderton,. Never heard of the folks being presented. More to add is nice. Too many people have forgotten what the word ‘sketch’ means.
  • @artfuldrawing
    keeping things simple can be very challenging while trying to stay creative at the same time. I appreciate the style these artist bring to the table
  • @rhoadsr1
    Thank you for opening my eyes to artists in this minimalist style and for your 5 tips. Your video was really well done, keeping it simple and moving. Really love your work too Taria!
  • Excellent, really enjoyed this video, good tips at the end. Jim Butler for me from these examples. On the web Neil Whitehead is my favourite, well worth checking out too.
  • Absolutely loved this video of 5 minimalist artists to watch! So inspiring! I’m so new to this and I’m overwhelmed with the beautiful art you and these artists make. Love your videos! More!!
  • @ChantelleArts
    Thanks for putting this together, there are so many different ways to sketch outside that I hadn’t considered 😊
  • Thank you, I have now followed them all. Great inspiration for an aspiring artist like myself, who is enthralled with the magic of line and wash and, yes, the use of white space!
  • @robertfeldman3739
    Thank you for your 5 great tips to improve minimalist sketching and exposing me to other urban minimalist artists, just great
  • I was blown away by each of these sketchers works! Thanks so much for introducing me to these sketchers.
  • @carolpenn1155
    Another comprehensive video. Thanks Taria for introducing us to unknown sketchers.
  • I really like your urban sketchers to follow series. Always inspiring and interesting. I love working with negative spaces but simplification is challenging.
  • I love all of these artists! Thank you, Taria, for doing the research for us!
  • I love applying collage to my art work!. I’m just now trying to break into urban sketching having always loved it, seeing it in hooks and what not, but not having seen much of it in the states. I’d love to get out and try more of it. I try to draw too much detail so this video is inspiring. Thank you! I’m encouraged to try and bring more of my collage into my urban sketching now. 😄 ❤️
  • @LaurelProw
    I love Jim Butlers use of collage and line. I have been doing the #100dayproject (3 in a row) and focused on collage, some was more abstract, some pictorial. I never thought of using collage with urban sketching. I’m going to give it a go!!! Thanks Taria for all your wonderful work on your channel. It’s inspiring. ☺️
  • Love Lis Watkins….and her work simply echoes the way she is…..understated and captivating
  • @purplewiz9999
    Great video - concise and thought provoking with good examples of the artists' work. Helpful 5 tips at the end too Thanks very much
  • @joangrant5248
    I wanted to start to draw London scenes. I am so pleased to find there is a group. I love the concept. The video was very well put together. Thanks for a really informative and useful road map.
  • This was excellent. Thank you for posting these wonderful artists, all of whom were new to me. My goal is to simplify my sketches.
