Do you want to see more walk-throughs like this? Are there aspects of my work that you want to see new videos about?
I’d like to see active sketching/painting, especially with your 6 color palette
The walk-throughs are very helpful, Liz. It's nice to see all types of page layouts at a glance. It's especially helpful when you talk through the mindset of a particular page.
Love it, love it ....love it,
reminds me of my walks around Sydney when I visited my son...... hope to be living there someday soon.🙂
Yes!
Yes I would love to see more walk throughs!
I love how your sketch book is not just sketches but like a diary. Beautiful.
such a nice idea isn't it and some reflections and observations - for instance if you sketch a tree, read up about it and write about it, so you get to learn at the same time
Of course we’re interested in seeing more of your work! Please make this type of videos whenever you have time! 💕
Ok! will do!!!! 🙂
I love this. When I camp with my hubs and kis I alway have a small sketch book and keep a story of my trips. Been doing this for years. But THIS IS WONDERFUL AND INSPIRING! More p,ease.
This is the most interesting sketching journal book I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot😊. Something made me feel close to your lovely drawings and your page structure. Simply luv it!
So let me get this right... you completed the whole sketchbook in a month's time - right? IMPRESSIVE!!! Especially cuz your drawings are sooo good. (So is your handwriting.) Congratulations - hope to see your next finished sketchbook. Thanks for showing.
Hi Jack - completely in about 3.5 weeks. Yes, I sketch a lot and quickly 🙂
Awesome. I am terrible at drawing but can sketch pathetically. I’m going to glom your daily date title block. Did you design? If so if someone asks me about it I’ll refer to the Liz Steel date block. Warm wishes, kev
This is so inspiring
beautiful, watching this is like my therapy !!
It’s so satisfying seeing a large book completely filled out! I want to try a big sketchbook now. Beautiful sketches and layout. 👌☺️
Thanks! It was super fun to work this large. I hope you will give it a go 🙂
Such a fun variety of sketches! I'm obsessed with maps so really enjoy seeing how you add them to your book. I think I'll give that a go!
Thanks Sue - I love maps too!
Thanks for sharing with us this wonderful spiral sketchbook from you….take care….
Love your sketchbooks Liz! So inspirational and educational. I totally agree with you that "putting a boarder around a sketch does wonders". It saved many of my "not so great" pages.
I only started art of any form about a month ago. Today was the first time I saw your channel. So refreshing, especially to see the Bible verses sprinkled throughout your journals. I'm a believer and want to start something like this. I look forward to seeing more of your work.
Watching this made me so inspired. I really love what you do. Thanks for sharing and inspiring the world. You’re such a great soul❤
Thanks Liz, you have inspired me to stop trying to create a masterpiece!
Finally had time to eat ch this video from start to finish. It was incredibly inspiring. While I have wanted to get back to my sketchbook, I have let life get in the way. No more! 2022, even though it is February, here I come.
Loved the tour Liz.....we can't get enough of it. Your work is so inspiring. Thank you. Will patiently wait for the tour of the "small"er sketchbook.
Thanks Prashanta! Small book is being filled up at a rapid rate... so more to come soon! 🙂
This is so lovely 😍 I like all the details and the beautiful teapots so much and how you include the writing. It was such a joy for me watching your video - thanks a lot!
Great sketchbook! Love the scriptures you use too! Thanks for sharing 🤩
How inspiring is this walk-through!!?? Oh my gosh, thank YOU!
You came up on my feed today and what a joy it is! Your sketchbook is divine. Next I'm going to spend a few hours watching anything you've posted. Thank you!
thanks!
Great to see what you are doing!
Love this look-see through your big ol' sketchbook! I love that you have scripture beginning each day, the only way to start the day for me too! I can't wait to see you go through the new small sketchbook!
Thanks Kelly - and yes! the best start to everyday!!!!
I love the color charts at 1:36 - 2:06! Of course everything else too, but the combinations of colors, with information of pigments, fascinate me to no end. My sketchbooks have a lot of color mix experiments too, (not sketches very much, I'm afraid) but I'm not as disciplined as you, I change the colors in my palette(s) often and so don't get the intuitive knowledge or touch how to get the exact color I want. But I love to play with colors! And to see how other people do the same.
Your 6 color palette is interesting, I'll try it. Thank you for interesting sketchbook tour, and for all the beautiful tea cups! Greetings from Finland!
My goodness those are beautiful!! I love that large size!! I can definitely feel a difference of freedom of movement when I'm using large vs small paper...but either still work. But I hope I can quickly sketch that well...wow!!
Just beautiful!!
Love your whimsical way of creating this, this is ok, this maybe not so much but adds so much variety!
I love it all, but particularly love the pics that extend across the spiral.
Hi Gloria - thanks! and I love working across the spiral too!!!!
Beautiful work as always!!
Your style is so grounding and relaxing. I've been wanting to start a daily record sketchbook and this is exactly the kind of thing I was thinking!
This was such a fantastic journey through your sketchbook, Liz! Thank you for sharing it. (And of course I'd love to see the next one!) I'm in an A4 now, having started several years ago in a pocket-sized Moleskine watercolor album, and I'm loving the space. Might need to look into your sketchbook design course, though, as sometimes it's intimidating having so much room 😄. Cheers! -Anne
Hi Anne how are you doing 😊
Yes, do more walk throughs! Not only do I enjoy the art but as I probably won't be traveling to Australia any time soon (😔) its a really cool travelog as well!
This was wonderful! Thank you. So inspiring! 😊 And you actually make that "boring building" look quite interesting and attractive.
Loved the walk down memory lane in Parramatta and surrounding area! Thank you
Heart of Kentucky. Love your sketch book drawings. Katie.
Thanks, as Always, for sharing your recently finished sketchbook, Liz!!!! I got lots of good tips and new inspiration; especially love your color mixes right on the page. I have benefited so much from joining your courses and livestreams over the past 2 years. It's inspired me to sketch something daily.
Thanks Susie!! It's been great to have you in the groups and I always love seeing your work in the classroom!
Love your work especially your teapots! Great job!❤
I love the colors you used! They emit a soft and whimsical vibe
Amazing collection of your work, something to aim for. Thanks for the Scriptures as well!
I absolutely love your work. And your hand-writing is “to die for “❤thanks
Love the scriptures you put in each day! Really enjoyed your art and sketch book! 💖👍
Liz….I love all of your stuff! Thanks so much for sharing your amazing talent with the world. God bless….❤️
My pleasure!
It's very inspiring. All of us have material to sketch all around us, but for some reason it's still difficult to think of what to draw in a book like this. I love the Scripture verses thrown in, and the faint lines you've written them on. Feels very personal. Thank you for sharing.
I love seeing your work! 🎉
Super fun to see and hear your process, Liz. I have graduated to a "larger" sketchbook (5.5 x 8"!) from my usual tiny ones. One day I will try a real big book! It's all about experimentation and learning, which you so inspire. Thank you.
Congrats on working larger (for you!) Ellen! Keep it going! 🙂
Hi Ellen how are you doing 😊
I just love looking through your sketchbook!!!!!!!
Thanks Keshna! Hope you are going well!
This is soooo amazing!
I loved this…. So inspiring! I’m at the beginning of a sketching journey and hope to be like you when I grow up!!!!!
This was so much fun to watch, thank you
Awesome usual tour. Would love to see more.❤❤❤
I'm doing almost monthly livestreams to go through my sketchbooks. So check out the Live tab to watch the replays
A very inspiring sketchbook! Im glad to see an aussie nature artist, i love the bush
Great presentation! Thanks Liz!
Just came across your video. How very inspiring! I am sort of at a block. This is a wonderful way to get me working and painting without stressing. I do some sketchbook work, but randomly. I love how you incorporate the text with the image, Lovely, Lovely. Thank you!
OMG this is so stunning! I'm absolutely in love with such sketchbooks! You're an amazing artist.
Love love love your sketchbook!
Thanks!
This is phenomenal! It gives me so many helpful and wonderful ideas (I’m a beginner)! Thank you- I can’t wait to check out more of your videos! I love it all!! 😊
I just found your page Liz and your sketchbook is amazing. Beautiful work and I'm excited to watch more of your videos!
Such an inspiration!
love love love your sketchbook, gives a lot of inspiration 😍
I was so excited to sit down with my coffee and watch this tour of your large sketchbook! I absolutely love your trees and your color swatches... I just love your loose style. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks Sandra! I love having the chance to sketch trees regularly these days!
Wonderfully inspiring! Thank you.
your art is so lovely!! such a delight to see ur work and a hear a little about ur creative process and experiments!
also im from sydney too so its so nice to see familiar places so wonderfully illustrated in ur sketchbook :)
First time viewer. Your video popped up in the suggestion page. Fab sketch book. *Great illustrations* .
I like your huge sketchbook/journal-a great contrast of loose and structured. So much talent and discipline!
Thank you so much!
Thanks so much for sharing! So inspirational!!
So inspiring! Thank you for sharing.
Lovely! I enjoyed your walk-through.
I liked your sketches of the dishes. The little shadows make them jump off the page which is neat.
I am so glad your back. I live on the South Coast NSW and enjoy daily sketching. (I work in a Botanical gardens).. Your layouts though are incredible. Thanks for sharing your passion.
Big thumbs up thank you for bringing such a phenomenal video. There’s much to learn from
My pleasure - more to come I promise!
Love a sketchbook flip 👍🏼 thank you
Fantastic work!
It’s soo inspiring! Thank you 💙
Liz, I absolutely love your work and have been using Daniel Smith watercolors ever since I saw your first video. Thanks for the inspiration!! ❤️
I love this so much
I admire your layouts
I just discovered you and I’m SO inspired to start sketching every day! How fun! So cool that you found a sketchbook that has good enough paper but not so good that you feel like you have to be precious. That’s where I get stuck! That $75 Fabriano cotton sketchbook I saved up to buy is NEVER going to get filled! 😂
I used to be really precious about it, but realised that I was avoiding "ruining" good paper with simple everyday sketches / doodles and then not actually using the nicer paper. If monthly costs are less than the price of a packet of cigarettes, I'm in the winners zone (I quit that addiction ages ago, by the way), I'm still paying less out than I used to, and a sketching habit is far better than a smoking one.
@@mattsadventureswithart5764 i love that! Congrats on quitting, sketching is a much better habit! I realized that I spend so much on candy and sweets and that money could go towards paint tubes or other supplies so I swapped!
Love this! More,please!
So inspiring! The way that you organize the paintings on page is very awesome. Looks like a map book. A need to do this someday hahaha
I loved this! Thanks.
Love your gum leafs and drawings. So inspiring. I just started my sketchbook as a way to stay creative while travelling Australia. Nothing to show yet but I really enjoy it. Thank you for sharing your beautiful sketchbook ♥ Cheers from currently Northern NSW
Love this! Thanks.
Thank you so much for sharing! Beautiful, informative, and fun! I struggle with watercolor on that paper and need to return to cotton, but your paintings are lovely!
Very cool book... .love your sharing it with us.
Fabulous flip-through! More please! (Because of you, I tried the S & B Alpha and I absolutely adore the paper.)
Thanks Kimbopolo and nice to meet another Alpha fan!!!!
Great Job 👍🏽 you have a wonderful skechbook 🥰
Spectacular! Also your handwriting is so neat and clean, I'm jealous 👏
I really like the how big that book is! It’s sometimes nice to have the extra real estate and the freedom it offers. I’m still bouncing between 5x7 and 8x6. I love the spiralbounds and I haven’t tried drawing across the spine. I know I don’t enjoy the Beta portrait 8x6 right now and I can’t wait to be done with it. Can’t decide what size to use next. I’m mid way thru my Zeta and Beta.. time for start restocking 😃
Liz - you inspire me so much! I’m currently participating in your Foundations course (except I haven’t posted any work yet but it’s coming soon) and I’m totally loving this course. I am somewhat new to sketching but seeing your work and hearing your ideas just gives me so much encouragement and enthusiasm to get out there and do more. I’m using an Alpha paperback book but it would be nice to have a hardcover. I may have to try one of those spiral ones myself. Thank you so much for what you do!
Thanks Terri! I hope that you will start sharing your work into the Foundations course - the group is SO supportive and will encourage you! Hardcovers are easier to use but weigh more so overall for everyday sketchbooks I use softcover as carrying a lighter sketchbook makes a big difference.
Hi Terri how are you doing 😊
Waooo. ! Génial !
Merci de partager ♡
Very nice journal!
Nice hand lettering!
How beautiful and inspiring! I work small and I think I miss out by doing so. The bigger book looks very freeing. Thank you so much for sharing!
Thanks Gayle! Yes larger is freer I hope you try it one day! 🙂
I will. I dug out an old sketch book today. Because it is not 'precious', I hope to be a much more relaxed sketcher/watercolourist. Thanks again for the inspiration. I hope to be in one of your workshops soon.
Beautiful! waiting for more videos❤
I love this! Thank you so much. Very inspiring! More of this please. New subscriber
Hi Sandy how are you doing 😊
I am trying to figure how to combine Bible study and sketching. Otherwise I tend to skip one or the other! I love how you combine everything in your life. God, relationships, activities, stuff, journaling, art. Lovely.
Love it
Very enjoyable.
Always interested to see whatever you want to show us.
So very impressive Liz, also very inspiring. Blessings from Canberra
Thank you so much Michelle!
Yes please!
I’m glad RUclips recommended you to me
I just subscribed, and 👍🏻🥰 it was fun your drawing and your hand writing was amazing, keep it coming LiZzY dear ❤
