Can I paint a 300 page sketchbook in 12 days?

AD: Pre-order the sketchbook and cutting mat here: nerdforge.store
❤️Thanks to our Patrons: / nerdforge

I have always wanted to fill an entire sketchbook, and finally I did! I spent 12 days painting and drawing, and in the end I could do the sketchbook flip-through / tour I've always wanted to do :')

It must be so satisfying to be able to make art from any medium.

[@vrillionaire88]

Yeah, it can be. Combining different mediums is one of the real joys of the multidisciplinary strategy. But imagine having to buy all of the mediums, it can get very pricey, quickly.

[@zombieashes2705]

It can be and I definitely recommend mixing mediums it can be so much fun! I'm a mix medium artist and I absolutely love it especially when I start getting bored of one art medium I can hope over to a different medium and still have fun.

[@johannamau7005]

I thought so too, I mean is there anything she can’t do?

[@BrW5]

It’s not it’s soul crushing and the most frustrating thing you’ll ever do.

[@krisdenger8339]

You can too, Tracy. No one is really 'good' at art. All it is, is hours worked at perfecting the craft. Grinding away, even if you don't like the result, and often especially when you don't. Hours and hours, your lines getting straighter, your curves getting neater. It's all just a matter of time.

Amazing video! :D

[@charlierichardson631]

@@bensonmybeloved5160 you can start wherever and whenever never too late , painting , figure study , cartoon, gesture , no matter what ,it will help; that being said if you want a resource to follow ,when I first started, Drawing: A Complete Guide ,a book by Giovanni Civardi was an invaluable tool for my learning during my early years. In all honesty though it will be a long time until quality over quantity applies to your practice, just sit down on a weekend and draw for 8-16 hours ,or however long your schedule allows ,and you will get results

[@billyb4665]

Same. I have to wait for something inside to move me before I develop even a single piece I've started. It helps to leave your work and art supplies out where you can see it at all times. When I did this, once, I could be busy with something else and notice more things I could do to my art (as the art sat in the corner of the room, staring at me). Then I would simply walk over and try what would come to mind, and before I knew it the flow would begin. Maybe I should go back to doing that, lol.

Here’s how I fill up sketch books: 1. *Never rip out pages!* it’s tempting but don’t do it! It’s bad for the book but also it’s just not good for your creative process either. If you really hate something u drew, put sticky notes or stickers on top of it, or use a marker to draw over, but please for the love of god don’t rip the page 2. Don’t show anyone your sketch book. Draw personal self indulgent drawing that you would never post online, draw things for yourself without the expectation of showing others. 3. Don’t put too much pressure on it. Make sure to draw something ugly earlier on, you don’t have to go out of your way to make it ugly, but just try something new and if it turns out ugly that’s ok. Keep it there, and now in the sketch book from now on this will be your standards. Like if you draw something later and think it’s bad you can just refer back to the first bad drawing and realize “this isn’t that bad” 4. Draw the way *you* prefer sketching. I used to be awful at keeping up sketch books or finishing them. I always put too much emphasis on making every page look nice, and I never used all the space on a page. But when I would be in class I would doodle on the margins of my work sheets, then turn them in and never see those drawings again. So I got a little sketch book so anytime I would be in class and felt like doodling on my paper, I would instead take out my sketch book to draw my little doodles in there instead. And it was great, I ended up filling entire pages and not caring if they were masterpieces. So if your the type to grab a different paper to try a doodle or idea for a drawing, this time instead try gravitating to your sketch book first and draw it there. Treat your sketchbook like extra paper that’s laying around 5. Make sure you get a good sized book. Are you the type that always has too much space left on pages that you never fill? Try getting a smaller sketch book, so you can fill pages easier and see less unused negative space. 6. What’s the quality of your book? Is your sketch book really high quality and that intimidates you? Dose you’r sketch book have a really great design on the cover that you don’t want to ruin. Well try getting a cheaper book, get a book that has a blank cover. Quality is important sometimes though, sometimes you want paper that can withstand whatever medium you prefer, but don’t choose really cool looking books that look so beautiful to the point where you never want to draw in them because your scared it will ruin it. And when it comes to customization, I don’t decorate my sketch book cover with drawings and stickers until I’m 60% done with it. If you decorate the cover early on then you don’t want to “ruin” the book with bad drawings, so I wait later until I’m comfortable with it. 7. Finally, don’t compare your sketch book to others, especially the really pretty impressive ones online. I don’t care if your sketch book as a lot of amateur unfinished doodles while some kid on insta or KZbin has masterpieces on every page, at least you finished *your* sketch book, with every page drawn on, and a lot of your personality and thought process put into it.

[@tiagodagostini]

I just paint over sketchs I do not like. I move forward with sketching and later when the book lacks space I return to paint with acrylics over bad stuff.

[@hiddenshadow2105]

@@tiagodagostini Acrylics mediums are also wonderful for it, as one doesn't fear to experiement with, say, gladd bead medium, or gesso.

[@hiddenshadow2105]

This is wholesome and healthy approach to the sketchbooks. I'd add, that if one has difficulty finishing the book, try slimmer book, say, just 32 pages instead of 60 or 120, and then expand from there. Also - blank covers are nice because one can decorate them with anything.

[@codsamanta]

I will definitely use these tips since I am quite guilty of having at least some of the bad habits you described.

[@silver9wolf6]

😂😂 I was jusf looking for this comment!

[@tlidd]

As an aspiring writer, I can confirm that completing literally ANYTHING, even if I have to force myself to do so, gives me the drive to write longer or better quality works. Last month, my wife challenged me to write everyday. Because of some time constraints on some days, I only completed 20 out of 30 days, but that’s more than I’ve ever done independently before! I also really enjoyed myself, so I’ve continued working on a prompt my friend gave me 2 weeks ago. Initially, his story was meant to be about 3 pages, but based on my progress and the outline I created, it’s going to end up somewhere around 50 pages! Great job pursuing your sketchbook goal. Sometimes we creative types need to force ourselves to get started, but we always end up having fun in the end. :)

[@chrishechtl8330]

Good. Most people make the mistake of trying to start at the beginning when writing a book or project. I get into a general outline and then find scenes or things that grab me and do those first, and then go on from there. (for instance, a snippet of dialog, or an action scene) If you keep at it you'll find yourself taking notes at anytime and it will be self-sustaining. (Trust me, for me the hard part is stopping!) I can usually complete a 300+ page book in under 20 days these days. Completing a project is very addicting and satisfying!

[@RiverWoods111]

My goal is to write everyday in a Journal that is in OneNote. The goal is about 20 minutes, because out of that usually comes great stories. That said, the other day, I wasn't feeling great, and all I wrote was "Good Morning". The next day, I chuckled and thought, "I was successful! I wrote something!" LMBO!

[@chrishechtl8330]

@@RiverWoods111 Great! The trick is to not beat yourself up too much but keep doing something even if it's a couple of words. I keep thinking of that Christmas song. "Put one foot in front of the other..."

I think I would buy a print of your completed sketchbook as an art book. I would love to own a printed copy that includes written entries about your experience creating this. Why you decided to do it, what your mental process was during the experience, your thoughts about doing it afterwards and any words you have for other artists etc. It would be really interesting I think. If you've ever heard of 8 Coins Tattoo Tarot or Bonefire Tarot, the books they wrote with their deck have a lot of personal story about the process of creation included in it as well as personal anecdotes and I really love that about those decks.

Love was put into every one of these. It's great. It's an awesome book.

[@Cantrona]

Sometimes you have to set a challenge like this for yourself. In the last 2 years I had 2 sketchbooks open but mainly did digital art. When 2021 started I'd set the resolution that I'd finish both by the end of the year. I finished the smaller one in early August and then blasted through half of the larger one in about a month, finishing it mid-October. I'd had that sketchbook in use for over 2 years, which is the longest I've had a sketchbook in use for since I started filling sketchbooks. It was beyond satisfying to get it done but I found myself on an incredible roll with it when I really got into it. Glad you finally got to experience that finished sketchbook feeling! I hope you get the chance to complete some of the old ones you've cracked open before too :)

[@instagamrr]

Wow i love your art! I’ve seen many of your amazing creations but never just regular drawing and painting. You’ve got a great eye and hand for making it happen! I wonder how satisfying it would be to own this sketchbook. I’d buy it in a heartbeat if I could afford it!

[@t3kev]

This was very wholesome to watch. I could relate to you feeling such adrenaline when finishing the sketchbook. Congratulations on completing your goal and thank you for making this video. Definitely inspired me. Cheers!

[@doogart]

This video is inspiring. Also just got my copy of this sketchbook and I didn't realize just HOW MASSIVE it is! Now this video is even more impressive! I'm on my quest to finish it now

[@AA-rr9ly]

How she only spent less than half an hour for each page but it all still turned out as a masterpiece is beyond me!! Amazing art!

[@JamieRobles1]

One of my design classes was just about filling a page in half an hour. It's just practice, really.

[@camilamgs]

Thank you for this video. It’s been such a wonderful inspiration for me. I have the same struggles as you to fill a sketchbook… you gave me so many ideas and inspiration… love your videos! ❤️

[@pilarmonteiro7492]

So glad I found your channel! I feel like I'm going to learn so much and feel so much more motivated to practice drawing and painting! This is one of the BEST art-related videos I've EVER watched, thank you so much

[@Nerdforge]

🥺💜

[@simonflyer3677]

As some one that is getting started with sketching and drawing, hearing 5:00 - 5:05 from such a talented person makes me feel like less of an amature while also showing what a humble and genuine persona Martina is.

As much as I love to draw/paint/create, I was never able to do so consistently. Your video made me realise one thing - I can set myself a tight goal and race against time and get so much more practice done this way! I'm starting to gather ideas now, maybe I'll be able to challenge myself this weekend :D

[@TheMessyDeskxyz]

Finally decided to watch this video and I’m blown away by how beautiful the paintings are… Definitely bookmarking this video, the flip through is just a ton of good stuff - all those inspirations… I’ll definitely come back to this and copy some paintings when my skills improve!

[@SirRhys13]

It's just not fair that someone has so much talent in so many mediums, from art to construction and everything in-between. I am so envious of your talent, skill and experience, but so happy that you share them with all of us to enjoy! Keep up the amazing work! I look forward to seeing everything you create!

[@booyaa86]

I have to say. You are such an incredible inspiration to me. I've been following you for years now, when you started posting videos on how to create handmade sketch book tomes, and it got me into book binding, which is now one of my favorite things to create. I have always struggled on completing a sketch book full of drawings, and I keep collecting them and I wasn't sure quite why, but you nailed it on the head. Anyways, you've inspired me to actually finish a sketchbook and that's going to be my goal this coming year. Thanks again for sharing your passion with the world. Your genuine excitement and positivity fills my heart with joy everytime I watch your videos.

[@snowy2619]

this was my first time watching you and your art and personality is AWESOME! subbed and liked :D (also was just thinking about getting a new sketchbook so perfect timing :D)

[@snowy2619]

do u guys have any discounts for the sketchbook by any chance?

[@whitefangOG]

I love when she paints landscapes, there amazing. also your paints are super cool and the martials you use in crafts

[@trenallia]

I've received so much inspiration from your drawings, thank you so much!😍

[@imyourdarkstar1153]

i surprised my self at recognising the witcher 3 scenes without knowing that thats what they were at first ahah well done on completing it, inspiring me to either pick up my old sketch book or get a new one and have a go at completing it

12:49 and 14:23 are my favorite ones! But what I enjoyed the most was watching you draw and paint in such varied styles and palettes :)

[@stephaniemand]

Your videos are actually very motivating. I feel like filling up all my sketchbooks now 😌❤️

[@HotPink829]

Wow! Each piece had so much emotion and feeling poured into it! Very moving work!! 😍

[@Nocolance]

Need to complete your book journey and make a "Medieval" type look like the monks did to put on display, and just leave the middle open to a well done up page with gold leaf and Latin written in it. Would make a great display piece I could totally make after you do all the "learning" for me.

[@ndtcssh]

I need to see Jazza attempt this if he hasn’t already…👀 also, I LOVE your style of landscapes 😭😭🥰

[@glenjamindle]

He's a great artist, but do people really still watch him?

[@EmilyWard]

@@glenjamindle I don't know anything about him, but his recent videos are very popular (quite a few over a million views in the last couple months). Is he controversial for some reason?

[@sivashni9216]

@@glenjamindle I STILL WATCH HIM HAHAHAHAH . HE IS ONE OF MY FAV KZbinRS CURRENTLY

[@IchigoTsukii]

I love these paintings so much I'd love prints of your work one day!

[@kiwi7379]

I’d love to order this once the sketchbook goes back on sale again

[@reintrono]

As someone who also has a notebook obsession and hasn't filled out a sketchbook yet, I AM EXTREMELY HAPPY FOR YOU!!! Now, i am inspired to fill out my many sketchbooks 😂 Also, I learned bookbinding because of you. I love you, Martinaaa!! And Hansi, too! 😍

[@RedBizzarro]

I could never, for the love of everything that's good out there, complete a sketch book. I buy material all the time. I go to the store and my eyes are glued to the art supplies and I have to leave with a piece or two, it's a thing I cannot fight. My mind conjure ideas all the time, but my hands are not skilled enough to follow and It's way too easy to just 'Leave it for Later'. I watched with secret adoration and a great deal of respect as you went through this one and my heart.. well....my simple heart was filled with joy and pride at the happiness radiating from you at the very end. Silly as it is, I was teary eyed as it was ending. I stumbled upon this channel a while back and it's incredible to watch it grow and expand. You have so much in you to put on these pages, it's marvelous really. Never stop challenging yourself like that, it a beautiful work of art in every next step you take.

[@anikahungerford7185]

these drawings are so amazing, you have such a gift, thank you for sharing it with the world.

[@cmondya4919]

It was so nice to watch !!

[@cxqcxq5176]

[@guildofartscrafts5525]

We love the challenge you set for yourself in this video! It's a perfect way to advertise the sketchbook! We finally ordered one today! Can't wait to hold it in our hands! We love the slongan on the cover

[@ExpanderDJ]

Your work is so mesmerizing, it's like I'm in a different world when I watch your videos. Please keep it up!

[@NeeshaNotes]
