Creating mini pockets-fine liner quickie sketch

- Welcome!
My name is Michele. And welcome to the creative Cove.
Today’s tutorial is using a fine liner and creating some quick, fun simplified botanical sketches on scrap paper to include into one of our journals. In this case we will make a little pocket.
We want to capture the form and delicate feel of these flowers, by using a few tips and tricks we can create a realistic sketch with some depth.
I hope you give it a try.
If you are new to drawing, try not to be intimidated and add pressure to yourself. Try to relax and slow down the video and take it step by step. Keep all your sketches even the ones you don’t like and with practice your confidence will grow along with your skills and you will look back at your first attempt and see how far you have come.
I hope this video inspires you to give it a how and add some personal charm to your journals.
Happy creating!

This is just great. Mine, not so much!! It just satisfies my soul. And, I can watch it again and again. Thanks so much
Brilliant and Charming, Michelle!!! Going to make a couple later on today!!! I finally found some of those small Brads at local WM!! I had The big brass ones but sometimes just too big... I love that little Wildflower book! I have two copies also!! A 1900s or earlier in good condition, and a newer Facsimile published in early 2000's I bought new when Barnes and Noble was open in Omaha, or Borders.. I forget... So I tore that one apart and use some.. For journals and for sketching inspiration... I'm slowly building up my cache of reference books...Should I ever happen to win a lottery ( Big) Guess what I will be buying lol?!!
Have A wonderful Spring as First Day Tomorrow (3-20-23/Monday. 💐🌱🌷🌿- M
I just love watching you and listening to you. And your work is beautiful! Thank you for the sketching tips you share as you go along. ♥
You are nothing short of amazing and a joy to watch!! You deserve thousands and thousands of followers, people are really missing out by not following you!!
Oh wow thank you so very much. 🥰
I love your work and teaching skills! ❤ new binge watching!
Agree and I don’t need Netflix! 🌙🎉
I wanted inspiration! ❣️🌹🎈
These are called brads, Michele. I like using these also. And I Love your videos! 💜
Absolutely love your style,so ready to practice these grasses.
Lovely! I want to mount that pocket and bookmark on a birthday card!
I have to get some plant books like you have ❤thank you for your ideas ❤
Lovely work yet again Michele - I love the little book of wild flowers - what an awesome find! I think you are a very generous person and make drawing look easy (helps inspire others to have a go). Thankyou 🤎🤎🤎
What a delight you are to watch. Thank you so much for rekindling my love of drawing/sketching/doodling.
Thank you so very much 😊
You are so lovely and super talented I cannot thank you enough for your encouragement and beautiful projects,your little butterfly pins are "Brad's",and maybe you can look for a little vintage basket and tins to fill with supplies for your travels...xx
Thank you so very much. I did just that. Got some baskets and bins to try and organize in my small space 😊
These are just gorgeous! Love watching you sketch, so relaxing! I think we call them brads or split pins..but I am in the UK, so might be different for you... Thank you so much for sharing, take care x
Thank you so very much 😊
Love your scribbles...😃 If you take foil and fold it a few times, then punch away. It will sharpen it up again. Repeat the process until it cuts through your paper. Just a tiny hack.
Your drawing tutorials are so informative, and I’m so glad you showed how you are inspired by those amazing antique book illustrations. Thank you for continuing to share while you’re in transition! Sending warm vibes from the sunny, hot south! ☀️
Thank you so very much. I try to find inspiration all over. I love these old book can’t wait to go back next month and see what other treasures I can find 😊 won’t be able to move in my trailer haha
If you use aluminum foil and try punching it it should sharpen your punch. Thank you for sharing. I love your videos!
Gorgeous pockets & ink sketches! The paper fasteners are called brads. These will be perfect for my pressed flower storage journal that I'm working on. Thanks for all the tips!
Oh I loved that. Pressed flowers storage journals are so fun to make and decorate. Have fun sketching!
What a beautiful book, a treasure for sure. Don't you just love it when you find something like that? As always, beautiful sketching. Love how you used the brads in the corners. So very pretty! TY for sharing your time, talent, and creativity. Have a good day.
They are called brads. These are beautiful. You are so inspiring! I made one and looks good too.
That’s awesome! Thank you!
💜💜💜 so glad I found your channel
Thank you 😊
Love your sketching and I’m enjoying following along!! Love Bracebridge! I’m in Barrie. 💕
Wonderful! Thank you so much.
I was in Barrie yesterday lol
@@thecreativecove6898 so funny! Well given all the coincidences that have been happening in my life lately, you were probably just next door when you were in Barrie! I will be on your tube a lot! I do a real variety of art “ stuff” and love what you do!! I’m retired now and drawing , painting and knitting have been on my list to “ get better at”. I’m workin’ it and having a great time!Thank you! 👍
Your setup is great and especially inspires those of us who work in small spaces. So glad that you are determined to keep creative wherever you are. I love your doodle sketches. I think they have become your signature. They are exquisite. Thank you for the effort you go through to bring us great videos and tutorials.
Thank you so very much. I do love to teach and share ideas. So it’s wonderful to read a comment like this. It encourages me to keep creating! 😊
Me and my mother have a wild foraging Facebook page, she's also a botanist and I've learned a bunch from her over the years. I also happen to collect antique books on herbs, foraging, plant identification etc.. So if you happen to come across anymore while in your travels I'd love to buy them from you if possible, please please please!!!!! lol
Thank you. I will keep my eyes open for you. Though I might have a hard time letting them go. Lol
Oh I'm so jealous! That American wild flowers!
I know right such a lovely book
Lovely vintage pockets - looking forward to next videos! I now find the more quick tries I have at drawing flowers the better they end up - when I concentrate on details they lose a lot of their 'natural' appearance!
Thanks for taking the time to show us your skills.
I would agree with you on that. I to find my flower drawings get stiff looking if I concentrate for to long. I think moving the pen quickly create a more organic look. That being said once you get the over all form down you can always go back and work on more detail. 😊
I’ll be getting out my wildflower books and see what I can. I just might be able to pull it off. I love this pocket idea!
Go for it! I know you can do it. Just take your time and have fun with it! 😊
Thank you for sharing! I love your process. You make it look so easy. I will definitely give it a go.
Awesome love to hear that. Thank you 😊
Love The the doodling sketches...You are Very Much an inspiration indeed... I can draw and sketch, but sometimes I get out of my comfort zone and it messes with me... so watching you inspires me to keep at it and Love your Technics as well, I for sure would go to your classes if I could... Thank you keeping your Shares going, and the Modivation and vibes you give out... you show no matter where your at you can Doodle... Have a Wonderful Day...🙂🤗❤🖊🖌
Thank you so much. I am so pleased to hear that these videos inspire. It makes my day! You really can doodle anywhere and on anything 😊
Always a fun, relaxing and informative time watching your videos. I, like you, am in the process of a move and all my art materials are in storage. I'm saving videos to rewatch when I can get my supplies out again. I also cannot draw free hand but I'm gonna give it a try again once I have my supplies. TYFS and best wishes as you build.
Thank you. I hope you get to your supplies soon. It’s hard to go without them for long lol.
Thank you 😊
@@thecreativecove6898 mee to but they are packed in the storage basement, sadly may be months before i can get them out. So keep up the videos on your end !
Beautiful! I like those books and illustrations too.
Me too they are just so lovely to hold and read. Thank you 😊
They are called split pin paper fasteners. I love your videos. Thanks for reminding us to have fun. I have to learn how to use procreate, but I'm working on it.
Procreate is so much fun. There is a lot to learn. I am still learning myself but it’s lots of fun. Thank you for watching 😊
Very beautiful drawings and clever use of the clips.
Thank you 😊
You are very inspiring love how you used the brads~such a great look
Thank you 😊. Love that book 📕
Love you little sketches and the books you found for inspiration. Here in Australia we call them brads too. 😊
Thank you. I just love those books. I was like a kid in the candy store when I saw those. Lol
I love your drawings, or doodles as you call them. I can't wait to try this out. BTW, here in the US we call them brads.
Thank you 😊
Lovely artwork. Wish the camera was closer to be able to see this very small rendering. 🙃
Love your teaching skills! ❤
The metal things are called brads.
Thank you 😊
Michele-thank you for the lesson, it was fabulous! You make sketching fun and relaxing. I used to see flowers as intimidating but your tips help so much! I hope you share more videos. If you could share the name of the second book that would be appreciated since I am hoping it has some more references. Thank you!
That’s so nice of you. Thank you. You might find some flowers more challenging then others to draw so try a few specimens. I thing the second book was also called American wild flowers. It’s almost exactly the same I am thinking it was printed a few years later.
First time I have watched your channel, won't be the last! Andrea at Arty Maze recommended you. Beautiful drawings, you are inspiring. Split pins or brads, they looked really good. x
Thank you so very much and welcome! 😊
Love your botanical drawings! Can you tell me the name of the book you are drawing out of or are they both Fieldbook of American Wildflowers? Thank you
I love watching your videos and very helpful in improving my sketching. The little pieces you used to close your pockets are called brads and the pieces you fold over are called legs. In my part of the US anyway, Georgia. Tfs.
Thank you so much. 😊
👍👍👍💕💕💕🇩🇰
Absolutely gorgeous! I know you are in your trailer, not a lot of room, but for future videos, could you please put your camera a little bit closer? Not to skip any detail of your wonderful sketching! Thanks!
Thank you for the feedback. I will do my best. It is the closest I could get it where it’s attached but I will try to find a better solution 😊.
@@thecreativecove6898 thank you so much!
BTW those are called "brads"
Thank you
Brads
