You’re amazing 😮❤

Tysmmm!! I just have a sketchbook lying around catching dust❤

[@CosmicNova266]

I agree on the last tip cause I had a sketchbook that I HATED the paper to the point that I didn’t want to draw AT ALL and I took a break from it to see if that helped but I just ended up not drawing for a month so I kinda just threw in in my old sketchbook bin and went to my new shiny one in the corner :3 now I’ve had that sketchbook for 2 days and I’ve filled like 4 spreads 😂

[@Derpy_eve]

YAYY I LOVE HEARING THAT! 🫶 paper does matter and im also glad u didnt force urself to suffer over some paper 😔🤝 Wise choice

[@CocoRoxas]

I have a sketchbook like that and I recommend using it as a scrapbook instead! I’ve been drawing on other paper and then cutting them out and pasting them into the sketchbook as a spread! 😄 lets me use the sketchbook without having to use that awful paper!

[@zimTheDragonOwner]

REAL PAPER DOES MATTER EXCEPT I HAVE TO GET SKETCHBOOKS WITH CRUNCHY AHH HAIR THIN PAPER BECAUSE THEY HAVE MORE PAPERRRRRR

[@HippieHobbity]

i once was intimidated by starting the next page in my sketchbook, so i slapped a piece of steak ( that i had currently been enjoying ) down on the page, cleaned it off, and then decided “wow that stain mark looks like a dragon” and filled the page with dragon doodles “steak juice stacey” pioneered the age of non-stop dragon drawings in my sketchbook, and i love that page now

[@Derpy_eve]

Wait i love this so much- thats crazy awesome 😩🫶

[@alwayscurly9017]

[@sipurh2o]

​@@alwayscurly9017I love ur thought process

[@Raviolio-wonders]

HELP THAT WOULD SMELL CRAZY BUT THATS SO FUN

[@BlueBerryPrinceStuff]

One tip I have is making your own sketchbook from scratch! I'm about to finish my first semi good looking sketchbook, and the reason I always feel so happy about drawing in it was I made it from a dollar store book I gutted and sewed signatures of marker and mixed media paper into. It took away the precious feeling but also gave me nice paper

[@adelak]

the worse the paper is, the less hesitant i am to draw in the sketchbook lol

[@Derpy_eve]

wise words 🙏 everyone should have a junk book fr its so liberating.

[@VampyricVixen]

Another tip as someone who has been an artist for the past decade and took a year off from burnout, don" stress over your art, it will improve over time and have fun with your art, art is supposed to be fun, your way of thinking- kind of like writing your feelings out but in art form, if you ever feel burned out, just take a deep breath and relax, no need to stress over it but most importantly, HAVE FUN!! ( amazing video btw

[@F1guRas]

Yesssss!!! Whenever I hate a project I keep erasing it and trying util I am happy with it, and it always works for me and also reminds me that life is about practice

[@izubees]

this is so incredibly helpful, i actually have recently been getting really down on myself for not having a "pretty" sketchbook and i really appreciate the tip about having a "junk" sketchbook. thank you so much! i really loved all these tips and i feel like although they aren't completely new information to me, the way you put them into your own words and experience made me realize some new things about myself and my art. ❤❤

[@IChangeMyUserNameTooMuch]

what I do sometimes is cover an entire page in watercolour, and while it's still wet, I lift some of the paint with a tissue and draw what I see in the "clouds" (cuz the lighter colours look like clouds after lifting to me.)

[@Derpy_eve]

Thats such a cool idea 😨!! I’d like to try that 😼 🫶 tysm for sharing :D ✨

[@IChangeMyUserNameTooMuch]

@@Derpy_eve No problem =)

[@batty-bites3185]

pinterest isn't the worst idea for inspo but i encourage all artists to try and avoid ai garbage. not only are they not good references for anatomy if you're trying to casually learn anatomy while sketching, but they're also using other people's art to exist. please try to be as original as you can and make ur own art. but this video is so cute and cozy. you're so knowledgable and insightful for such a young artist! all your tips are amazing and true/valid these have been passed around by many well seasoned artists before but you put them together so nicely and helpfully to break people out of sketchbook paralysis ~

[@F1guRas]

Yeah, but honestly something I like to do is look at AI art because it helps me distinguish it from normal art. I can honestly tell AI from original 99% of the time, even in different styles!

[@detactedbarbieheads]

I remember looking at flowers, and turn out it was ai lol

This was the most helpful video I've ever seen.. TYSM😭😭

[@LittleMissHurricane]

3:43 THIS!!! I struggled with drawing in my sketchbook bc I felt like every page needed to be perfect/complete and it led to pretty severe artblock but then I randomly started a secondary sketch book, it was a hand me down from my sister and in rough shape but I could draw freely in it. The limitations I had set in my mind weren’t there for my second book and it allowed me to be more free with my first bc the pressure to fill it was spread out

[@MartLovesU]

During my exams I got my sketchbook for the study time before the exams. I had a blank page with a red blob and just completely transformed it!! It looks so pretty now 😘👏👏

[@onelonelymoth2737]

I've always had such a complicated relationship with art. I love art and I love drawing, but I'd compare myself to other people so hard. I quit drawing at some point In 2022 and I've been looking for the inspiration to start up again. This video really helped ❤

[@Jamie-qu3lu]

I agree with the last tip. Tbh I usually am embarrassed of my own work and rip some art from my sketchbooks cause I want it to feel perfect. But personally, I think people should realize that all art is perfect. This whole world is made with art in many different/creative ways.

[@KetchupCanvas]

Saving this video to my inspo playlist! This was fun to watch and I got a ton of ideas! 😊

[@StarlainDisguise]

this is the first video i've seen from you and i absolutely adore your artwork and your tips, i'm sticking around, these chunky sketchbooks make my day and give me a new level of inspiration. i'll def be trying some of these out!!

[@sparkledustcreeper4]

Oh my goodness, oh my dang, I'm so happy that I found this video in my recommendations! This was actually super helpful and actually really inspiring! Like I can't deny how happy this made me. But now I need to go ahead and rewatch the entire thing so I can take notes so I can have something to refer to. Because when it comes to editing your life, I'm not always the best candidate. But once again, super helpful. Extremely helpful. Thank you. Idk how many times people say that in your comment section but you deserve it. Hope everything is good for you and I hope you're well. Thanks again.

[@imthatgood324]

not only did this video give me amazing tips, but, this video also motivated me to start making OC's and drawing again, so thank you!!! i had been taking a long break from art and i wanted to start doing it again, but i just didnt have any motivation, and seeing your art made me want to draw again! thanks so much and amazing video! :)

[@TealZombiee]

I just go supperr excited seeing that YOU LITERALLY HAVE THE SAME SKINTONE AS ME SHADE AND EVERYTHING idk why i git so excited tho, very helpful video!!

[@Burbee1511]

same, I didn’t draw much at all this summer and I’ve been trying to draw lately and it just wasn’t the same so I really needed this video

[@Strawb3rry_T3a]

This is SO HELPFUL!! I've never really attempted doing a nice looking sketchbook, but I have been wanting to for SO LONG, but I didn't really know where to start (so intimidating!). Thanks a ton for sharing these tips, and I love your art!

[@crateredcallisto2854]

i remember getting the perfect sketchbook from my mom for easter this year. its the size of my hand, and i like smaller pages because its easier to fill out the entire thing and i work better with smaller spaces rather than big pages where im struggling to draw big. and the paper? amazing. its off white, kind of tan and i love that color. the QUALITY, oh dont even get me started. i rubbed it all over my face the first week i had it. i still do tbh, and i smell the paper a lot

[@yuki5383]

I have that exact watercolour kit!! :D

[@aj.8439]

I do art professionally and work in animation and thank you for your video! it randomly showed up on my feed and I've been having trouble drawing for myself again. It is really different when it becomes your career. Thank you for reminding me about the joys of having a sketchbook, I'm not a kid anymore, but listening to you was like listening to me back when I was first starting to learn to draw. Thank you so SO much, sorry if I sounded emo!!!!

[@CatBond-vx5ik]

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing your sketchbook pages, they're so diverse and filled with creativity that you've convinced me to start my own sketchbooks no matter the results. I love filling pages with drawings and colors all around, I guess I needed to see a living example of how fun drawing can be. Thank you again for sharing your art and tips ❤🥰 PS.: I LOVE how you gave life to your OCs through these books, it's made me really curious about them!

[@Kat_dragon]

Tip for people who have, like, hundreds of ocs like me: if you don’t know what to draw, redraw or redesign your old ocs. Or, make a new one from three colors!

i wanted to personalize my sketchbook a bit since the first two were pretty boring, but this video helped a lot, thanks!

[@katie-tg1nr]

I tend to struggle with even bothering to use a sketchbook because I want everything to look super nice, so something that helped me was buying a sketchbook from Dollar Tree. It’s not the best quality and it has maybe 30 pages, but because it was so cheap I didn’t care about “ruining” it when I used it I have whole pages of art study notes in it too lol

[@Eyethegreatest]

I can here for tips but ended up just watching them draw 😭❤

Also to all artists (everyone of course) I hope you all continue to use your creative ways cause we all are artists in this world. Without art/creativity, we wouldn’t have so much in this world. Continue art forever

If you’re like me and you’re too scared to ruin a good sketchbook with random doodles, you can always use separate book like a used notebook from school. It takes off the pressure of ruining a good sketchbook plus you get use out of the unused empty pages in those notebooks
