10 Ideas for the First Page in Your Sketchbook | Art Journal Thursday Ep. 19

[@jeondirtae2367]

This really inspired me a lot. I was the type of person who doesn't even want to open a sketchbook, afraid that I might ruin it and that other people won't like it. But when I watched this video, I began to realize that doing art is not all about making it perfect, it's all about making it unique and expressing yourself. Being yourself is a masterpiece and being unique is already perfect. Thanks a Lot😊😊😊

[@magiccatty789]

[@petrapredovan473]

For my sketchbook I drew a skull and wrote "WARNING! Bad art ahead. This is masterpiece compared to what you'll see next!" I love it!

[@anushkakhemka2044]

Moan

[@Megamongmind]

stan talent, stan Google translate can I use that idea to my sketchbook (asking for permission)

[@brendane28]

What I do is I draw on half of the page then leave it and when I finish the sketchbook I go back and re-draw the original picture on the other half to see how much I improved over the time.

[@homestuckgarbage3324]

A Bappy Lil Bitch best idea! Definitely doing that for my next sketch book!

[@clar8541]

Omg good idea!!

[@Chloe-ui5hl]

lil Noel that’s such an incredible idea omggg. I’m definitely gonna do this 😱❤️

[@anukrishnan6650]

Mmm Well its a good idea ✌🏻

[@cutecutexox]

I wanna do that but I digital draw so maybe there's a sketchbook app

[@manyagoyal3835]

You're right , the moment we stop caring about the perfection is the moment a masterpiece is born. ❤

[@jalajatripathi5651]

Very well said and true

[@alien542]

Absolutely true.. Mistakes make masterpieces..😊😊

[@mato6943]

I find that when I'm just doodling, or not really caring about the final result, my drawings always turn out really good. But when i have a fixed idea for how i want my drawing to look, i always get frustrated with the details and end up erasing the whole thing ... I guess that shows you dont need to worry about imperfections! Don't think too much about the final result, just create whatever's on your mind!

[@Makoccino]

Exactly!

[@seignee]

[@mato6943]

Aki Kirito Aww, thanks for the kind words! I'm glad I got to help ^-^

[@wheresmymelody9093]

lol ikr!!! one day i was just doodling in my math nothing book and ended up drawing this perfect hand then when i actually tried drawing a hand it just looked like a sausage xD

[@alyanni156]

why is this so me?!

[@ann-marielofberg1159]

It took me 35 years to realise that mustn’t show everything I do in my sketchbook and finally I feel free to create, isn’t that fascinating? Well, I’m happy I found out this now, better late than never! Happy Painting

[@Estarlina]

I always keep the 1,2,3 and even 4th-page white, convincing myself that one day I'll make an Index... (Spoiler: Never happens...) But I'm Glad to know I'm not the only one that suffers from this "let'snotruinthefirstpage" condition! 😂 The diagonal chart though... That must look's pretty cutee and professional!! :D :D 😊

[@austhajenny254]

Estarlina 😂😂😂😂😂me toooo

[@Makoccino]

Aww thank you! Sometimes the first page just doesn't feel right, like the whole book binding, it just feels weird, so I like to skip the first page due to these reasons too 😂

[@oneliarohe2489]

Sometimes I even start in the middle just because I'm too afraid to ruin it it's so annoying 😂

[@BankruptMonkey]

I like to save the last few pages as a potential index, that also means if I actually use it then I have space to continue it

[@tomhuijben1073]

onelia cp hahahaa I do the same!! and then later I go back and think "wow all this wasted paper" and fill it in a lil bit more, or just the most ugly sketches that ruin a whole page you just erase them and do something else hahaha

There are two types of people in this world 1. Everything is Perfect 2. Nothing in Perfect

I’m the rare and elusive third option 3. Everything can be perfect, as nothing is too perfect to be fully perfect.

I just appreciate all of my art while understanding it isn’t perfect. Of course it could be better, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t good.

[@noirethorne]

I actually on my first page right down the names of a bunch of random things I see around me, or something that popped into my head out of nowhere, that someone mentioned, ect, so that if I don't have any drawing ideas (or writing ideas) I can just refer to the first page and pick something at random.

This really helped me it literally sent me into OCD overdrive when I get something wrong or go outside the lines when painting or colouring and I would rip the page out and cry but after watching this it really helped me to realise that It doesn’t matter if it’s bad or messy just to love my art and be proud of it Thank you truly 😊

[@emilygee6618]

I love your content so much! I can't get enough! And yes, the first page is so scary! The biggest fear for me is wasting my supplies on a bad piece of art

I really do! I'm so glad you decided to do KZbin!

[@emilygee6618]

[@MsSaTify]

Never be afraid to use your supplies, because then you'll find them wasting away. Supplies are meant to be used to do things, even if it doesn't turn out the way you'd like! That's what I tell myself and it helps. (:

Thank you so much Mako. I'm at a point in my life where I'm too hard on myself, I'm unable to paint anymore. Your words are so soothing and inspiring. It's making me fall in love with art again. And you're right, we don't have to show the whole world our art, so I'll start creating it for myself again.

[@budderlass7777]

What I do to avoid filling the first page is start from the back of the sketchbook Not the smartest way but helps me

[@Makoccino]

+Budderlass 777 this is genius!!

[@nenuphard1316]

Budderlass 777 this is actually a very good idea I think I'm gonna steal it 😂

Its not that new. Every mangaka ever has done that.

Budderlass 777 I do the same. Once I did that I was finally able to finish things even if they aren't perfect.

[@jajoopackers3196]

It was not only helpful but also inspiring. I learned that we dont need to perfect and creating a masterpiece which I always used to.just believe yourself feel free and be unique

[@marvy6256]

[@christellemans776]

Aphmau Fan Jasmine L Yeah but kids shouldn't really have KZbin accounts anyway. Besides, if they do, their parents should be supervising them if they do. Also, I doubt an 8 year old would click on "ideas for the first page of you sketch book" and find it very interesting, they'd most likely watch my little pony or something.

[@angieziegler608]

Thanks! I'm trying to figure what to do before I get a new sketchbook! What's great is that I have watercolor AND acrylic. I should make a video soon...

[@T.W.T_TV]

I always think expressing myself 'loudly' is the best way to connect with others. But deeply inside I'm 'care' about how people see me and judge my piece. After watching you doodling and painting..It made me realised I used to be good in art and I stopped cuz I wanted to be perfect in creating it but end up losing it totally. After more than a decade, I started again... yesterday! It looked terrible but I feel relief that I'm doing it. You inpired me to do it for myself and not for everyone. I should continue...❤Thanks❤

[@unicorncraftsy4123]

I just got my 6th sketchbook and I am like Me: omg how am I gonna fill this thing!? Mako: fill it with your sign Me: great finally!

[@JellyBean-sr2qf]

You earns a subscriber today (along with thousands of others) I usually not only skip the first page , I skip a whole drawing if it doesn’t look PERFECT or realistic. You thought me that you should not worry about what others think and to create and experiment so much with my work! Thank you so much!

[@bellflowersimp2827]

My first page: has the starting month + year and the end month + year in the middle. Doodles in the corner for every month so you could see your process in one page.

[@hussainvirk8598]

sakura -g- that’s a great idea mind if I copy it 😊

[@TLeigh-fx2vm]

Thank you so much. This was so helpful to me, as I’ve never done anything with visual arts. Your tips were not just practical (like the ideas on to how to begin), but were a refreshing reminder that nothing has to be perfect. The simple act of enjoying whatever journaling I *can* do should be enough, and the act of doing is its own reward. I’m very grateful.

[@move8115]

Not first but yet not the last😘😘😍😍

[@apexjobsinc2163]

[@mehakbhatia6169]

[@hiphillbert]

Your voice is so soothing

[@sophiae6252]

I love the messages you said throughout the video! It made me feel so much better. The main reason I haven’t been drawing anymore is because I think that it’ll be so much worse than everyone else’s. Thanks for reminding me that drawing is a way to express yourself, even if you might think it looks “bad”. It’s just for fun!

[@maura2386]

You are so inspiring. This video not only helped me with ideas, but confidence and pride as an artist. Art is what makes me happy. A hobby, and it shouldn't be such a burdern or pressure. I alwaysfelt pressured to be perfect, even though I am not the best artist. Now I feel more comfortable just having fun

[@necos3236]

7:10 THAT BRUSH IS SOOO AMAZING😍😍

[@8plaq889]

This was so inspiring and definitely will help me to realise now, that even though I am a full on perfectionist, I will still make mistakes. I will spend time realising while doodling, painting in my sketch book that not everything has to be a masterpiece, because before I only wanted my work to be 100% up to my standard, or to me, perfect. Thank you so much for this video 💕

[@havinsesen6567]

So recently I’ve been struggling a lot with art. I’m a perfectionist, which means I take EXTREMELY long doing my art, so I always fall behind and my teacher gets mad and I lose all confidence and motivation to carry on. We just started our new project which is Architecture, which made me kind of excited. I wanted to become an architect in the future but then I realised that I need to be really good at art and drawing, but I’m not great at it, I’m just decent. So that kind of put me off of architecture but having Architecture as our project kind of gave me up until we started it. As always, I’m behind, we were meant to do our title page involving a mindmap about architecture, but I haven’t even started yet. My teacher always puts me off, reminding me every second that I’m behind as if I don’t already know that. I think the problem with me is I take very long to come up with an idea, and when I can’t come up with one quickly, I lose hope. I also care SO much about what people think of me, so that also makes sense why I want things to be perfect. Right now I’m thinking and thinking of ideas I can use for my title page (how I came across your video) and I still have nothing which is stressing me out even MORE. Sometimes I just want to give up and ask myself repeatedly why I picked art if I’m not good at it. Can someone please help me?

[@chitralekha538]

How did you got so much time to write this much??? 🤯😶😮🥴

[@shainaevangeline6084]

Hey I hope I'm not too late....caz i know how you feel.... been there, it's hard to come up with something when you are a perfectionist and that makes it even harder caz the best you do doesn't feel good enough (even when it is)...try thinking of it as practice makes progress and not perfect... progress would eventually lead you to the desired perfection....it wont be easy! As for the idea part(thats tricky) whenever you have an idea just try it out even if it does not turn out the way you want it later recreate it in however best way you can (caz you know what you liked and didn't like when you tried it at first). Hope this helps in some way

[@peril.]

I have this issue too. I’m a HUUUUGE perfectionist, meaning any minor inconvenience that just so happens to strike my path?? Life = Ruined. That goes for anything and everything, all of the time. My solution to these problems is that I’m always good at doing things last minute and procrastinating them till the deadline. I either work great or crap under pressure, but it’s usually good enough for a good result.

[@kylacineger8771]

Alicia Spadafora I think it's because it's the first thing we see inside the book. The first page is our first impression of the sketchbook, so if the first page is imperfect we'll think the whole book is imperfect.. I really don't know anything about art but it's just what I think

I have an idea which may sound really bad .. How 'bout practising anatomy on the first page or doodles and then colour with colours which they are not supposed to be coloured with and when the colour is dried we can do some calligraphy on it.

[@lenah.104]

jadafirecutie how do you do this???

I add water to them and gently swipe my painting tool across the top. When you gently swipe the top you get less pigment. When you apply more pressure, you get more pigment. Its all about water balance. The more water generally, less pigment = pastels. The less water mostly, more pigment = saturated colors.

I am literally sitting here with a stack of notebooks I got for 2018 for different areas of my life and they are all blank because they are so beautiful and I'm afraid to mess them up. I'm going to take your advice to heart and just start on them 💗 I would recommend for others that feel this way to get or set up a disc bound art journal though, I have no problem keeping that religiously because I can always take a sheet out easily or add different kinds of paper or change the order.

When ever I draw in my sketch book and my friends see me they always ask "CAN I SEE!!" no, but some how they get hold of it😟👏😬

This video inspired me so much. I spend lots of time staring at someone's art and thinking "Mine has to look just like that." Then when mine doesnt turn out "perfect" I get frustrated and storm off to my bedroom. This video helped me remember that everyone's art is different and nobody's art is perfect. Another amazing video

I really like what you said about comparing ourselves with others, so true.

[@irisdevine]

I love the washi tape pattern design and the colour grid is an amazing idea! 🎨

[@venusschreave7808]

I didn’t know everyone else always skipped the the first 1 or 2 pages. ☺️. This makes me feel better.

[@minimixpuppet9656]

Thanks I just got a new sketchbook today and this popped up in my recommendations

[@Makoccino]

Yayy!

You. Are. _AMAZING_ I _really_ needed to heat this, and I agree. A blank page is intimidating.
