Please sketch.

[@namethinkhard]

you were able to put into words how art changes the way you see things in a way I haven't heard before but is so true. being distracted by the shape of light on someone's face during conversation, the lazy haze of a morning commute, the unrestrained vandalism of a mailbox on a busy city intersection - all fine details you can't help but appreciate once you know they're waiting to be found. when you start chasing an art career it's easy to get caught up with optimal workflows, the best programs to use, job applications, portfolio reviews, hireability. it's easy to lose sight of why you even started doing art in the first place. but the reminders are always there - we draw because we love observing. the little features that most people would overlook, we take and celebrate. it can be cobblestones, weathered walls, or lampposts but they're always there. sometimes it just takes a little sketchbook and time outside to remember that.

that is incredibly heartwarming to hear, and I hear you, I feel so similarly! All the little details you mentioned and more

[@Nediame]

Airi, thank you. I started sketchbooking frequently earlier this year because of you and it did so much for nurturing my creativity and helping me approach my regular art in a way that feels so much more free and fun. Lately, the grey, gloomy European winter has been getting to me and so my creative process has been suffering because of it too... this video feels like a gift honestly, it made my little heart feel much lighter, and I'm picking my sketchbook back up once I leave this comment, after a month of not touching it 😤 thank you thank you, I'll be looking forward to your future vids! Sending love!!

[@lettersfromtessa]

The way you described how your friend interacted with the world when you were sketching together, when talking about being present, really resonates with the way I see the world through photography

[@artofdanelle]

I’m so glad you decided to make long form content!! Can’t wait to see more of your videos 😍

[@pix_bun]

I'm looking forward to bringing more to you! >:0

[@frollywoggy]

While your short-form videos were like delightful little snacks that revitalized my creativity, this long-form video is like a FEAST that is feeding my soul. I've already watched it several times over, it's like listening to a friend yap session while I sketch. Thank you for inspiring me, and I'm so thrilled to see the future long-form content in the works!! ❤

[@ShelbyExistsAndMakesStuff]

I really want to sketch more from life. This inspired me.

[@sarahmaricato1994]

[@qrbitsart]

dis is amazing airi, so glad you are starting longform

[@acarmour3]

Drawing from life is the best!😊 I LOVE your style too and the the way you layer pastel pencil and pen or marker. ❤

[@sailorsue7375]

My favorite artist doing youtube videos? Right before christmas?! What a gift 😭 I love the way you put this video together. So inspirational. I sketch almost every day and it is like meditation to me. For some time, it is just me, my pen, the sketchbook and whatever Im sketching! I always come out of this state refreshed and with clear thoughts. People always assume artists are chaotic in nature but to me, it really organises my mind!

[@bobbyn1152]
