  • Hello again! I'm back with another sketchbook! These usually take me 1-2 years to complete, so I always feel really accomplished when I finish that last page. I used a Stillman & Birn Zeta Series mixed media sketchbook, with 26 sheets / 52 pages. Grab a cup of coffee or tea and settle in for a stroll through my pages 💖

    First video of yours that I stumbled upon. I had a good chuckle from the transition of the kinda silly and fun intro to your really pleasant "radio" voice 😆
    I really enjoyed seeing the range of what was in your sketchbook and hearing your thoughts on everything. Very creative and inspiring!

    I sat and watched your video enjoyed seeing your sketchbook but I'm sat here looking now at my very blank new sketchbook still don't know how I want to start lol. I will maybe I watch a couple more of your videos first with a fresh cup of tea.

    • @TheDiggingestGirl
      @TheDiggingestGirl  Месяц назад

      Another cup of tea always does the trick for me! A thought: you can take that teabag when it's finished steeping and blot it onto your sketchbook paper to visually "ground" that first page. Now it's not blank and you have some cool texture to start with :)

    Aloha lovely lady. Sorry, I don't know your name. I looked but couldn't find it. I just came across this video of yours while I was searching through RUclips for some inspiration. You are a very talented artist, and I very much appreciated your humor and, of course, the tour through your awesome SketchBook ! I also appreciate it when someone talks about their favorite poem, book, or movie, so that was a plus for me as well! I look forward to cruising through your collection of videos here and checking out more of your art! A huge thank you for sharing!🌙🌈🌺🙋‍♀️

    3:42 Mexico is such a biodiverse country you can encounter desert climates, semi-arid climates, tropical climates, and even snow if you go certain places in northern Mexico during December/February (like Arteaga, Coahuila which has the only ski resort in Mexico). Cabo San Lucas is definitely one of my favorite places alongside La Paz, I have so many good memories of those places. Also your sketchbook is so inspiring and makes me want to try the Zeta sketchbook and see if my comics will actually work with it.

    I find your sketchbooks so incredibly inspiring! I know a while back you had a poll asking folks for video ideas. I would absolutely love to see a video explaining your thought process when you are building one of the multi-media pages. In what order do you lay down the layers? Collage first? Or drawings first? So interested in this and it's something I can't seem to get quite right in my own sketchbooks. Thanks for another great video!! I absolutely love your sketchbooks.

    • @TheDiggingestGirl
      @TheDiggingestGirl  Месяц назад

      Thank you! My favorite adhesive is the UHU stic (archival gluestick) and I also like Nori Paste because it is repositionable so you have time to get it in just the right spot. It's also fun to tape things in with pretty washi tapes.

The way you weave whimsy and wonder into not only your artwork but the story you are writing and the mural you are painting and the random things you are sewing. You have inspired me.

      @TheDiggingestGirl  Месяц назад

      Hi & thanks for watching! After I finish my graphite sketches spray them with fixative. Good brands are Krylon and Winsor & Newton, both dry quickly. For extra protection I cut a piece of tracing paper to size and slide it in between the pages. ❤
