Sketchbooks: What I Wish I’d Known as a Beginner

[@annavanes_art]

The same thing happened to me over years. When I didn't want to mess up so I didn't paint at all. Now I just don't care and I grew, thank you for your reminder ❤

Overthinking is definitely one of the challenges. Thank you.

All of your tips are great Ohn Mar😊…we’ve had a watercolour exhibition on here for the past couple of days…all local artists, the theme was ‘landscapes’. I found it so inspiring to see just how different the artist’s work was…it was a good reminder that there is something wonderful in the differences.

You always have the right words Ohn Mar ❤

Perfection is a death trap.. it does not EXIST! Nothing is “perfect” and “ mistakes don’t exit either, there is only EVOLUTION! Keep drawing!,,

Gosh, did you hear my rant the other day? lol How often I look at my sketchbook and think what the he..! I will tag this to listen to this over and over to keep me going and not give up. Thank you!

All of these are reminders that I need. I was thinking about what you said about keeping your supplies simple....quality over quantity. I get overwhelmed when I have too many supplies on my table and I always think I want more stuff when I see a good "supplies haul." I've decided I will use up what I have and then think about other supplies later. I did find a great white pen that I'm loving: Artistro extra fine tip. God bless you in 2025.

I don't see a link for your supply recommendations.
