[@aliciatippin464]

“Are reptiles evil to you?” - “they don’t smile“ I burst out laughing

[@aliciatippin464]

“ oh wow! … this page is really sumthin….” Gold

[@GKSoccer5]

loving the james sound effects here

[@LeighEllexson]

the dinging is very very cool and ethereal !

[@bypenelope]

came for the sketchbook , stayed for James 🫶

[@LeighEllexson]

I like to use him as bait

[@blackbearjam]

*ding* thanks for inlucding the new narrator James

[@LeighEllexson]

he did an absolutely stunning job

[@SPATIALGLOW]

Very mindful, very demure, very cutesy narrator DING✨

[@ddgmakesart]

I love the talens art creations sketchbooks! I’ve tried the 5x5 and the landscape ones and I’m obsessed. Agree that they’re cheap enough that you don’t feel bad when you make something you don’t love.

[@LeighEllexson]

I'm thinking about trying the square one :0

[@allisonsedar]

@@LeighEllexsonI recently did my travelogue sketchbook in a square sketchbook and I loved it!

[@rachelfinder]

I love both James's imitation of you and your comments on your, and his personal affirmation and delight in your work. Like, he's trying to be cringe, but the joy in your art is so genuine and beautiful that he sees it, even when you might not. 😊💕

[@stephf8382]

✨️ding✨️ love to see all your art!! and james narrating was such a treat hehe

[@Kat_dragon]

I like watching sketchbook tours so I can get motivated :)

[@ghostroseart]

I really like how you talk about your art. I think it's nice to hear honest feedback about what works, what doesn't, and why. It's tough to really critique in a constructive way but you do that and I think that's why you have so many successful compositions. Anyway...thanks for sharing!

[@LeighEllexson]

thank you :')

[@marienahawkins8714]

The Feb 14th that you said was ugly was one of my favorites. This sketchbook is fabulous! You are inspiring

[@moonlightmoonchild1133]

this was a delight to watch! especially giggled at all the ✨dings✨

[@loveofserenade]

U should let james always narrate ur sketchbooks, It's like a sketchbook tour and podcast in one. Love the back and forth with the questions between you two.

[@mattgpdx1123]

James is so dang dreamy. The eyes, the smile, the voice, the scruff. What a catch!

[@hy.a.cinthh]

Chill lmao

[@mattgpdx1123]

@@hy.a.cinthh nah.

[@lexidahlia]

obsessed with your and James friendship, this made me giggle lots 😂

[@iamterenaa]

looooved james taking over lol! great sketchbook tour

[@miacs3351]

love watching art vlogs/sketchbook tours to get me in the mood to do my illustration projects if I'm not feeling so creative on that day, today is one of those days and this has definitely inspired me to get drawing!

[@tanyaprado97]

Finally! Leigh's sketchbook tours never disappoint ❤

[@kanoemontano9217]

I LOOOOOOVE your sketchbook tours!! Your process is so different from mine and its SUPER inspiring honestly.

[@traceyroth5122]

I love the stuff from April 5th. the unlined stuff is so fun. Ding!

[@nerinetterivera9133]

I loved every single month! Thank you for the tour and thanks to the guest host too. 💐💐💐

[@Photosyntheswag]

I love the Little landscape at 5:31 ! The colors are so pretty. Also enjoyed James’ commentary

[@thescopsowl999]

Love how colorful your sketchbook is! Also love the blue April spread with a doggo and kitties ❤

[@ClingyGhost]

This tour was a treat, imo. I loved the entire sketchbook but, my two favorite spreads were the Kewpie pages and the red and blue flowers ( I’m remembering them peonies or roses, I forgot lmao ). James’ commentary was A+ and gold star worthy. :’) I also believe a sketchbook is what you want it to be. For me, I have at least two going at the same time. One for fundamental and just art learning stuff I need to work on, and the second for more polished things. The second one is usually the better book with better paper.

[@mykindoftherapy7116]

Leigh, I’m so so happy I found your account. It has brought me such joy. Also love the hair! Thank you for sharing your light with the world ✨🩵

[@louannsidonart]

So much to love Leigh! My favorite is the frog with the nasturtium in its mouth. Also really enjoying all the fish and the thin pen. James did an excellent job.

[@edelgrane9375]

loved the sketches and James's commentary!

[@cypresswilde]

Obsessed with how blurry and bright some of the pastel/Neocolor sketches turned out. Your sketches always have a way of having an ethereal quality to them. Definitley wanna try out a technique similar to this ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@sophieandthestars]

love the sketchbook!! all of it!! i strive to have this looseness and colorfullness in my sketches, feel really inspired now ✨ also the long bye and waving hand looks like we're friends who spent a whole day gossiping over coffee and now can't be separated but we must, that feels warm

[@YasminaCreates]

Your sketchbooks always look like yummy candy and they just flow so well. You're mega talented!!!

[@FiMilton]

12:55 omg you should make fat birb into a sticker! Super loving all the birdies

[@ColzoArt]

Aw Leigh! This is a joy! I flipping love these sketchbooks, I’ve got a couple of the small square ones I’ve filled & keep one and a ball point pen in my bag when I go out because it’s teeny tiny!

[@SarahFrickArt]

bless james. Also I really love the "ding" so I know when to look at the next picture

[@therachelgoshow]

April 5th with the “peppermint” stick spread was super cool and funky - loved the guest commentary - ding!
