Mixed Media Sketchbook Tour 01

Sketchbook starts at 3:00
Remember that not every drawing or page in a sketchbook is going to be good. Some pages are full of crappy notes you took during a meeting or a doodle you did while on the phone. Some pages are gonna be so good that you could sell it. Some pages are going to be so bad you want to burn it.
Please!! for the love of everything!! don't rip pages out unless you have a purpose that isn't to throw them away. After keeping a sketchbook since I was a little kid, I know what I'm talking about. You'll thank me later. Decades from now, you'll get to see how much you have progressed and even those silly little doodles you hated will be cherished pieces of your past.

I really loved all of these pieces! Especially your landscape and bar/cafe type drawings. You really capture the essence and mood of the place so much so that you can almost imagine being there! Look forward to seeing more from you.

[@shelbycriswellart]

Thank you so much, appreciate it :)

[@mackenziemayfield409]

Your current sketchbook being so full of life & colors makes me so happy! Love to see you making so much art. :)!

[@shelbycriswellart]

Thank you baby ❤

[@katybug1966]

I love your current sketchbook! It's so inspiring. And so was your comment about how much more immersive it can be to look at a watercolour drawing than a photo. It's kind of like when you look at it, you think of the intensity of how you saw it while drawing - looking at the photo and seeing the real place in your memory. Not sure I'm making sense!

[@shelbycriswellart]

Thank you! And I'm picking up what you're putting down. You can definitely feel the intensity and the time that passed to put that painting down. A lot of times with photos it's just a quick snap and then you move on. (unless you're a professional photographer I suppose)

[@JmaDraws]

Thanks for helping to make/normalize copying as an acceptable way to learn! Love your art 😊

[@shelbycriswellart]

Hey, if plenty of masters did it, we can too! Thanks :)

[@sketchbookscheming]

Great tour! The quilt-inspired restaurant was really cool to see and hear about.

[@shelbycriswellart]

Thank ya!!

[@ricebeane]

Wow I love your art! It's so colourful and good and your voice is so nice to listen to!!

[@shelbycriswellart]

Omg that’s so nice of you, because when I’m editing I get so annoyed with my voice haha

[@ricebeane]

@@shelbycriswellart Yesss bc I have the exact same thing, but it's hard to objectively judge your own voice lmao

[@shelbycriswellart]

@@ricebeane Oh for sure, because it's only voice in my head haha

[@DeniseBrooks1955]

You are so talented! Happy I found your channel 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

ty for this!! still learning on how to set up stuff for people to skip ahead

[@TheOnlyVitik]

I love your style!! I enjoy mixing medias, myself. Your art is so colorful and alive. I also appreciate your understanding of color.

[@shelbycriswellart]

This means a lot to me, thanks so much!!

[@marieliholbert5835]

i adore your work!!! omg your style, the narration. I hope your channel blow up!! is perfect, exactly what I was looking for in terms of sketchbook tours and stuff. Usually people is good in skill but soooo annoying is just hard to watch. Your personality and perspective are so refreshing! and you are soooo talented. I love it

[@shelbycriswellart]

I'm picky about who I watch on youtube too. I think you have to find the right kinda voice to listen to, so I can't blame ya! Thanks a ton for being here and glad I was able to get exactly what you've been needing out of an art channel :)

[@plan4life]

Your art is gorgeous!

[@shelbycriswellart]

Thank you!!

[@nordicpink]

You’re good

[@shelbycriswellart]

thank ya!

[@PlushieBrigade]

I love all of the grackle art!! They’re one of my favorite birds. You’ve really inspired me to do more observational drawings! I also love your video description- I fell out of sketchbooking this year and went through some of my old ones. So many memories to cherish, even in the “bad” pages!

[@shelbycriswellart]

YES, they are so cute and funny lil birds. I'm so glad you got something from this!!

[@rachelmcnulty9975]

I really enjoy your style. Beautiful and inspiring sketchbook spreads!

[@shelbycriswellart]

Thank you!!

[@Zemiaza]

The description, I thought I may mention, is very sweet and heartfelt. I appreciate it and I will remember it! 😄😁

[@shelbycriswellart]

And I thought nobody read my descriptions, haha. Thank you for this, I'm so glad someone got something out of it!

[@Zemiaza]

@@shelbycriswellart your welcome! That’s exactly why I try to! Your amazing words stay with me 😊

[@InkDandelion]

Ahh your videos are sooo inspiring every time you share a new one! Thank you n keep it up! ❤🌞🌸🌈💪

[@shelbycriswellart]

You’re the coolest thank you!!

[@1nerd187]

Your quilting stuff kind of reminds me of Jim Shore sculptures

[@shelbycriswellart]

Ooo I haven’t gotten this comparison before but I love it

[@kyleeconrad]

I'm sure you're a nice person, but the nose ring is not doing you any favors. What is the appeal about looking like a bull from a Tex Avery cartoon?!?!

[@ricebeane]

What is the 'appeal' of negatively commenting on how another person looks?? Just let them express themselves how they want, they're not bothering anyone and if you don't like it just click away.

[@botoxed]

ok but like what is the appeal about saying unwanted opinions that are clearly off topic and unnecessary

[@shelbycriswellart]

Any time a comment starts with something nice and has a “but” after the compliment, it usually means it’s not something worth saying. Maybe look inward and see where this came from and why you felt the need to comment on my own personal styling choices. My body is my own and I will decorate it how I see fit, not how other people want me to do it. My septum has also given me a lot of confidence over the years and so it is here to stay.

[@kyleeconrad]

@@ricebeane I was genuinely interested in the video but I was highly distracted by the accessory. So much so, I left a comment. You can't tell me those types of body mods are a pure form of self expression. It isn't for the sake of it either because there is pain involved in the implementation. She clearly did it to appeal to some subcommunity to fit in and/or the shock factor and rebellion to another group. It can't be comfortable and clearly uses it as tool to keep certain types of individuals from approaching her.

[@KayKylle]

@@kyleeconrad Just simply don't watch it, nobody is forcing you to. You are not doing yourself any favors by being an asshole as well. Just let them do whatever they want as long as it doesn't show them harming others. Be kind to other people.
