<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">As the lockdown continues, the uncertainty on the continuity of some things becomes stronger.. podcasts are turning out to be a nice way to relate to how a lot of others around the globe are experiencing the same.. there is some sense of relief when you find company through uncertain times.. one of the podcast host shared a quote by the Roman Stoic philosopher Seneca “we suffer more in our imagination than in reality”.. left an impression.. and made me think that the quote is true when reality is normal.. in todays’ time do we find hope in our imagination.?</span></span></div>

<div style="box-sizing: border-box; padding: 0px 0px 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Now going out for supplies is just an excuse, the lure is getting a chance to sketch. Strings tied to scooters are some ways the store owners are trying to maintain some social distancing in front of their stores. Most people walk everywhere as petrol is still not available to the common man. Those who use their vehicles, have to maximise each trip. A common sight was scooterists with a mountain pile of shopping bags in front of them as pillion passengers too are still not allowed.</span></div>

<div style="box-sizing: border-box; padding: 0px 0px 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Petrol is now allowed from 7 am to 7 pm, but I chose to walk to get my supplies. To my surprise I found the access to various streets blocked with iron sheets. The irony was that now we could drive our vehicles but we could not reach the stores as Pune Camp had started creating containment zones overnight by blocking off streets from each other.</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; padding: 0px 0px 20px;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I observed people on their scooters coming to a screeching halt in front of these blocks, stare hard at them in shock as if mentally willing them to move and then when that did not happen they would suddenly speed off to find a new route to the store.</span><br />

Hi,<br />
<br />
Sharing details of the materials that are a part of my Urbansketching gear.<br />
<br />
<b>Sketchbook</b><br />
1. Stillman & Birn Alpha Series sketchbook - I use their hardbound landscape for bigger sketches and pocket size landscape format in my mini kit. I like the (lighter)weight of this paper - it takes linework very well and you can use watercolours easily. I usually work in light washes and finish most of the colour application in single wash. So the Alpha series work best for me. And I love whiteness of this paper.<br />

<br />
If you want a paper that can take watercolour application in its conventional use, try their Beta series. Or check out their <a href="https://stillmanandbirn.com/" target="_blank">website</a> for more paper varieties.<br />
<br />
2. When I want to sketch on loose sheets, I find the <a href="https://www.amazon.in/gp/product/B00PV9ANLG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1" target="_blank">Fabriano Academia</a> paper the best match to my sketching style.<br />

<br />
<b>Pens</b><br />
3. Lamy Joy - This pen is a workhorse. I like how it feels in the hand. Its grooves are best suited for how I hold a pen. Even if I pull out the pen after 2-3 weeks, the ink will start flowing within 1-2 strokes. I use De Atramentis document Black ink in myLamy.<br />
<a href="https://www.amazon.in/Lamy-Joy-Fountain-Pen-Black/dp/B0002T3ZKG/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=lamy+joy&qid=1575193250&s=office&sr=1-2" target="_blank">India link</a><br />

<br />
<br />
4. Platinum Carbon Pen - I am very fond of this pen. It gives this consistent thin line, never dries up and is best suited for the Platinum Carbon Ink which is the darkest permanent black ink that I have come across. You can buy cartridges or there is a convertor option. I just refill ink in the cartridges with a syringe.<br />
<a href="https://www.amazon.in/Platinum-fountain-pen-carbon-black/dp/B00V472ORU/ref=sr_1_5?crid=3CRR4HMMWAXNM&keywords=platinum+carbon+pen&qid=1575193355&sprefix=platinum+carbon%2Caps%2C349&sr=8-5" target="_blank">India link</a><br />

<br />
<br />
5. Platinum Preppy - For beginners, I recommend this pen as the investment is less and it still gives a very consistent fine line. I use this pen with a grey ink supplied by Noodlers.<br />
<a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Platinum-fountain-pen-carbon-black/dp/B00V472ORU/ref=sr_1_32?crid=6EF2CZVL6XOG&keywords=platinum+fountain+pen&qid=1575193531&sprefix=platinum+%2Caps%2C284&sr=8-32" target="_blank">India link</a><br />

6. Uniball Signo (white) - I love this gel pen as it gives the brightest opaque white lines over watercolours for the highlights.<br />

7. Apsara 2B pencil - This pencil comes handy when I want to just suggest some lines before going in with direct watercolours.<br />

<b>Brushes</b><br />
8. Rosemary Travel Brushes - I use the Rosemary R8 Pocket Kolinsky Travel MOP. Its an expensive brush but worth the spend.<br />

<b>Brushpens</b><br />
9. Kuretake Brush pen - Brushpens can be filled with water and serve a dual purpose of a brush and a water reservior. The Kurerake brushpens are longer than the others and gives me a good grip.<br />

It was a fun day sketchcrawling today.. We started at Ants Cafe in

I visited the National Gallery on friday evening with an intent of attending one of the guided tour... I reached earlier and got some time to do a quick sketch of Trafalagar Sqaure...
