I feel like so many artists have new sketchbook rituals
Absolutely! It’s very much an occasion! Hehe
I love the little phone call intro. I feel like I’m being welcomed into your cozy colorful world ☺️
Heheh! I’m glad you liked it!
Sketchbooks are a funny thing. Pages that I hated and were a mess at the time seem to change into something better all by themselves when I haven’t looked at them for a while!😊
gah this is like actual therapy hearing this!!! even better than therapy... i've always wondered about how u start your sketchbooks. i loved hearing you talk about the process and how u do ur thing and i can hear really how passionate you are about just playing around and having fun :'-) silly sketchbook goobers and bad art 4evaaaa!!!!!!! xoxo
❤❤❤❤❤ THANKS ANNIEEEE
Thanks for the encouragement. This was really enjoyable to watch. Yeah, as a beginner artist, the way my work looks isn't what I would like BUT the outcome is like magic - it's kind of like wow this is what happened....So I'm not Van Gogh ---Big deal the world already has one. You're awesome.
"practice makes progress"
that honestly hit me like a train
i was so ready to hear "perfect", but "progress" sounds so much closer to my heart!!
Yessss! Because nothing is perfect! Little baby steps of progress is the way to go to build skills 💚
On the topic of making bad art - I think it’s also so helpful to maintain a dialogue with yourself about *why* you think something is bad, or good! Try to figure out specifically what it is that’s not working for you (the colors, composition, balance, dimensions, etc). Sometimes I think of it as an iterative process, and pick what parts of a sketch I would keep and what parts I would change. I think this is super helpful in developing a style too, because you’re really challenging yourself to figure out not just what you like but *why* you like it ❤
Super important for sure!! So well said Lauren🧡 Thank you so much for your input!!!
Eyyy we have similar wants for our sketchbooks! I also love to customise the cover to make it feel like mine, and work through it chronologically, there’s just something about seeing your skills and style develop over time. I love sketchbooks 😊
I usually start on the back page and work my way forward. I may just say screw that next time and have a lovely, juicy page like this in the front. By the way, absolutely loving playing in my Onion skin journal! Thanks for letting us know about them. ♥
I love that!!! You mess with the rules and that’s very cool!!!
You got an onion skin journal! Sooooo good aren’t they!?
@@SophieMcPike I sure did! I love it, it takes anything that I've thrown at it, so far.
You begin with blobination! Blobination is a must have because, if you have vision, you’ll find what you’re looking for within the blobs. And no, it doesn’t say “soft stools,” it says “soft strolls!” Heh! Sophie, my dear, you make me smile! 😊
I like the idea of a photo at the beginning of your sketchbook. I used to do it with my journals especially when I was still in school and had those dreaded school pictures. Looking back it reminds me 'which Eveline' is writing the journal.
Yesss! That’s exactly where the thought came from :) they’re so cute to look back on, even when they felt so cringe at the time!
Your word's sound like an encouragement from a good friend to always explore and never be to harsh to yourself. Love your videos and immediately grabbed my sketchbook
❤️❤️❤️
How exciting!!!! I too love starting a new one, it’s so inspiring!!!! Staring a new one usually spawns new directions and challenges. I can’t wait to see what beautiful things you explore !! ❤️🎨❤️
Your intro 😊❤😂😂 I love watching you work and put blobs and marks on a page ❤
hehehhehe ❤❤ thank youuuu
Obsessssed with the opening of this video! SO cute ☺️
☎️🌝 THANK UUUU
Ooh! I love the idea of titling a sketchbook. I see a lot of people number them.... but I work in several sketchbooks at a time so that doesn't work very well. Your sketchbooks are so fun! Have a great day ❤
I’ve seen the numbering system too! But I’ve kept sketchbooks since childhood, so it’s too big a job to go back and number them all 🙃🙃🙃
I love your videos! They are so positiv ! I started preblobbinating some pages too. Sometimes I let my little girls do it for me, when they feel like doing somethig in my sketchbook when I´m working with it hahaha
That’s so lovely!!!!!
I feel like a fan girl every time I see your videos I scream this exact phrase.. “I love you ahhh”❤🎉😂
Cuteeee
love the intro! your work is so much fun! :) (I'm one of the page-skippers)
Loved this video, thanks for sharing your thoughts and this wonderful cover🎉
love the page love seeing your work always 💗
Thanks for this illustrated peptalk, dear Sophie.
you are a really good art friend Sophie ❤ your words are powerful and gentle, thank you sincerely ❤
You are so welcome🧡
I used to do so much lifedrawing drop ins before covid, lol, I'm so stale now. Don't get me started on perspective.
Omg I’m first!!
