Sketchbook Tour - The Blue Sketchbook 2021

[@sailorfan86]

Art goals for 2022 1. No buy 2. Use the supplies you already own instead of collecting them. 3. Draw/sketch everyday. 4. Challenge yourself. 5. Paint. 6. Throw your insecurities out the window or put them to sleep.

I LOVE this ❤️ i Will follow this

hows this going

[@sailorfan86]

@@brainierpenny4879 well, I did buy a few things here and there. Not much. I am drawing but not challenging myself. Got into bookbinding. I’m doing just fine😅😅😅.

[@gierasole]

rip i collected a bunch of watercolour this year, hopefully next year i'll have the mental capacity to make my comic with them...

[@lbinsbyyl5886]

I really like the way most of your art is drawn with sharp angles and straight lines but when it comes to people you draw them so soft and round. It adds such a nice contrast to your pieces!

[@name.surname.9707]

The digital sketches you were doing are absolutely beautiful! They really remind me of Bladerunner. Also love how it seems all your art work has purpose. Like it doesn’t just follow trends, it’s based on objects and people you’re interested in and it really shows your style.

[@ChromaMoma]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@lepotatoes]

exactly this! I love how unique of an artist they are!!!

[@paulwoodford1984]

I felt they were a little boring.

@@paulwoodford1984 only boring people get bored (and comment disparaging and unhelpful comments) 😋

[@Nero_256]

Your drawings remind me of the anime called "Blue Period", It revolves around a boy when saw the city in which he lives in during morning and it felt all blue to him and he tried to immitate the same effect on his canvas thus he got in drawing stuff

[@ElekLamoureux]

Well, now I need a blue pen.

[@steriskk9241]

[@ChromaMoma]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@imawafflelad8641]

Just bought the file! All of those look really great, very inspirational. I also wanna mention, that I bought my first dip pen 2 weeks ago, because I found your channel and I definitely don’t regret it. I really love your stuff Kenn, keep up the work, you’re inspiring people here, salud!

[@ChromaMoma]

That's really awesome! It makes me so happy to hear! I love dip pens :)

[@Privatewelt]

oh my my this is giving me so much inspiration. I'm just only beginning to learn to draw, so a lot of things seem to overwhelm me when watching others' artwork but, for some reason, I really really am inspired by your work. I hope to be able to draw spaceships as amazing as yours.

[@SarenaFishman]

Bought a copy! Absolutely love it. Have been following you for a while now and you never cease to inspire. Thanks for sharing your work with us :)

[@sky-fm5hl]

"digital sketches" shows absolute masterpieces

[@MoonCatArts]

I love Sketchbooks with a color scheme! In 2017 I filled a sketchbook with purple and I lived it so much that I am currently redrawing every page digitally XD I wanted to redraw an entire sketchbook this year to get more familiar with digital art but also to see how I improved and to this day the purple sketchbook is still the most satisfying to flip through :D so it was the perfect choice for my yearly challenge XD

[@maverihk]

NICE WORK. Love that you narrated. You gave every page context. As a fellow illustrator, I really appreciated your explanations of your process for each page. Thank You for sharing.

[@sonpanchan]

0:47 Is that the scene in Annihilation: Nova were Rich meets Worldmind? Nice. Also love your sketches and the fact that you do a little bit of everything. People, buildings, portraits, mechs, plants, armor...etc...

[@ChromaMoma]

Yes it is! It's one of my favourite arcs!

[@kotonakaishi]

Beautiful artwork! I enjoy how easy your content is to experience. It’s nice seeing your work, and inspiring how you use your sketchbooks. thank you 😊

[@ChromaMoma]

Thank you so much 😀

[@ashleyknight7329]

You are so likeable and refreshing. I’d love to have people like yourself in my circle of friends to talk about one’s passion for arts and creativity. I look forward to making my way through all your videos. Oh and your work is beautiful 🤙🏼🤙🏼

[@giantenemycrab5596]

This is so cool! So much practice! Also, love your line work! Really eye opening to how many different ways you can use one color. And thanks for the hilarious commentary lol

[@trinidadsanchezdyvinetz7017]

It's amazing how good you are at drawing mechs and how your whole sketchbook has a characteristic that makes it different but yours at the same time 🛐

[@milenamorita6534]

24:04 the position of the spaceships formed a heart!!

[@krzysztofwasilewski102]

peonies and chryzantemus are my favourite too, they are very well structured when it comes to learning shapes being close to each other and some organic lines, as always nature does not disappoint :D

[@RadishTheFool]

I always enjoy your sketchbook tours, and this one was particularly lovely. Your linework is sublime, I adore the mix of natural and mechanical subjects, and your attention to and patience for meticulous details will always impress me immensely. I also think your choice to stick to blue for an entire sketchbook added an extra coolness and charm. Plus it's always fun to hear your thoughts on what worked and didn't work for you. By the way, have you ever watched a video by Peter Draws? You two come across as very different artists and people, but you somehow also remind me of each other.

[@aoi_midori9151]

I don't know why, but i really liked the first drawing of plants with squares and one of them with some sort of pipes instead. Would like to see that coloured

[@elliafabia]

I spent last year doing what I do best - painting waterscapes and plants with watercolors. But I also studied anatomy and portraiture a lot to get better at drawing people. I improved very much and this year one of my art goals is to put what I've learned to use and draw people in actual situations. I'm starting by copying reference photograph and observing backgrounds and perspectives. I'm very curious how it'l go. Otherwise I want to continue refining my watercolor skills, I would like to have a repertoire of techniques since it's my favourite medium and so versatile. At the moment I kind of flow with it, but I actually want to work towards controlling it a little more and even try to paint neatly with them instead of the typical bleeding style of watercolors. I also want to dip my toes into digital stuff. I'm very hesitant though. I tried it now and them, but really didn't like it. So, instead of starting a drawing from scratch digitally, I'm going to make a lined piece traditionally and practice tracing it digitally, then color it very simply without thinking to much about it. I think that's a good way for me to start. By the way, I'm the girl who bought the Brause pen nips after your nip video and they are such a game changer !!! I think drawing and sketching with those will become very regular for me from now on.

[@Crimncoly]

you are such an underrated artist! love your mecha stuff

[@rachelthompson7487]

Great sketch book. I like the concept of using only one color for the whole thing.

[@Muscles_McGee]

I just filled up 9 sketchbook pages while watching this! Very inspiring. Thanks : )

[@Halaurmavath]

Wow, man. You’re art is so inspiring and I’ve been yearning to get back into it-this was the push I needed.

[@gabraelpaup3441]

dude I love your work so much. I'm always so happy when you have a new video out, gives me the motivation to keep drawing. Hope youre doing well. Your digital work is also superb! I know editing is a lot of work and time consuming but definitely recommend making a video on your digital stuff. Peace and love!

[@jimbar1000]

Your videos are so chill and really get me in the mood for drawing I just wish you got more attention on KZbin. Also would you ever think of doing any prints or something as well.

[@MminaMaclang]

Right now, I'm using Endless Stationery's Recorder in blank A5 Regalia Paper. Regalia is my new favorite after Tomoe River changed owners. And using it for fountain pen sketching, it's very smooth and shows off ink qualities really well, and still able to hold washes of watercolor and marker, so it's turning out to be a mixed media sketchbook. Just thought I'd say this since I know you like drawing with fountain pens too.

[@ChromaMoma]

Very interesting, I might have to check it out

[@Moni-nj6th]

Best mecha drawing channel I've seen this far

[@stillremain.artwork]

I do the same to pay more attention, when I'm drawing, it's like I process better the information, thanks for sharing your sketchbook and your process, it's amazing

[@trinabaker3186]

Your sketch book is the very best. Thank you for sharing.

[@Gwyndon]

Your style is so cool!

[@L3T0]

looking at your spaceships drawings makes me want to draw spaceships so bad, theyre so cool! but about your ink issue-- you might be able to find the same shade or something very similar with a different brand that has a drier ink. i use J. herbins 'gris nuage' with my fountain pen for sketching and because its a drier ink the lines are thinner and dont bleed. Some guy at a stationary store was telling me that the 'wetness' or 'dryness' of an ink really depends on the brand so maybe you might have better luck with J herbins or something? hope it helps :)

[@ChiseledDiamond]

I personally really love the Lamy turquoise as a lighter blue that doesn't look too turquoise, yeh

[@submarooo4319]

I love the blue ink look!

[@justenm287]

This comment might not get seen but i was curious of how long you take for each sketch cause it comes across as a slow process for each sketch and that's really cool. I tend to rush my sketches and they always look messy and rough.

[@D0S81]

14:51 that shouldnt happen with good sketchbooks. I recently learned there are ones made that, no matter where you open them, and no matter how thick they are, the pages always lay completely flat. I have big thick one i got 190 x 240 at 140 GSM 70 pages, so its a good centimetre and a half thick, and no matter where its opened, the pages lay flat. i even have a small one made by SAKURA that is twice as thick, and does the same. it feels so good when drawing stuff on double pages now. so now when buying a sketchbook, thats the first thing i do, is flip through and see if the pages stay flat wherever i open it.

[@xy22]

for anybody reading his notes at 8:47 (as I highly doubt he will se this comment), I will just quote Idles: if someone talked to you the way you do to you, I'd put their teeth through. love yourself! ♡
