    This really inspired me a lot. I was the type of person who doesn't even want to open a sketchbook, afraid that I might ruin it and that other people won't like it. But when I watched this video, I began to realize that doing art is not all about making it perfect, it's all about making it unique and expressing yourself. Being yourself is a masterpiece and being unique is already perfect. Thanks a Lot😊😊😊

    What I do is I draw on half of the page then leave it and when I finish the sketchbook I go back and re-draw the original picture on the other half to see how much I improved over the time.

    I find that when I'm just doodling, or not really caring about the final result, my drawings always turn out really good. But when i have a fixed idea for how i want my drawing to look, i always get frustrated with the details and end up erasing the whole thing ... I guess that shows you dont need to worry about imperfections! Don't think too much about the final result, just create whatever's on your mind!

      Yeah but kids shouldn't really have RUclips accounts anyway. Besides, if they do, their parents should be supervising them if they do. Also, I doubt an 8 year old would click on "ideas for the first page of you sketch book" and find it very interesting, they'd most likely watch my little pony or something.

    I actually on my first page right down the names of a bunch of random things I see around me, or something that popped into my head out of nowhere, that someone mentioned, ect, so that if I don't have any drawing ideas (or writing ideas) I can just refer to the first page and pick something at random.

      Never be afraid to use your supplies, because then you'll find them wasting away. Supplies are meant to be used to do things, even if it doesn't turn out the way you'd like! That's what I tell myself and it helps. (:

    So recently I’ve been struggling a lot with art. I’m a perfectionist, which means I take EXTREMELY long doing my art, so I always fall behind and my teacher gets mad and I lose all confidence and motivation to carry on. We just started our new project which is Architecture, which made me kind of excited. I wanted to become an architect in the future but then I realised that I need to be really good at art and drawing, but I’m not great at it, I’m just decent. So that kind of put me off of architecture but having Architecture as our project kind of gave me up until we started it. As always, I’m behind, we were meant to do our title page involving a mindmap about architecture, but I haven’t even started yet. My teacher always puts me off, reminding me every second that I’m behind as if I don’t already know that. I think the problem with me is I take very long to come up with an idea, and when I can’t come up with one quickly, I lose hope. I also care SO much about what people think of me, so that also makes sense why I want things to be perfect. Right now I’m thinking and thinking of ideas I can use for my title page (how I came across your video) and I still have nothing which is stressing me out even MORE. Sometimes I just want to give up and ask myself repeatedly why I picked art if I’m not good at it. Can someone please help me?

      Hey I hope I'm not too late....caz i know how you feel.... been there, it's hard to come up with something when you are a perfectionist and that makes it even harder caz the best you do doesn't feel good enough (even when it is)...try thinking of it as practice makes progress and not perfect... progress would eventually lead you to the desired perfection....it wont be easy! As for the idea part(thats tricky) whenever you have an idea just try it out even if it does not turn out the way you want it later recreate it in however best way you can (caz you know what you liked and didn't like when you tried it at first). Hope this helps in some way

    • @peril.
      @peril. 3 года назад

      I have this issue too. I’m a HUUUUGE perfectionist, meaning any minor inconvenience that just so happens to strike my path?? Life = Ruined. That goes for anything and everything, all of the time. My solution to these problems is that I’m always good at doing things last minute and procrastinating them till the deadline. I either work great or crap under pressure, but it’s usually good enough for a good result.

Thanks for reminding me that drawing is a way to express yourself, even if you might think it looks “bad”. It’s just for fun!

  • @T.W.T_TV
    @T.W.T_TV 6 лет назад

    I always think expressing myself 'loudly' is the best way to connect with others. But deeply inside I'm 'care' about how people see me and judge my piece. After watching you doodling and painting..It made me realised I used to be good in art and I stopped cuz I wanted to be perfect in creating it but end up losing it totally. After more than a decade, I started again... yesterday! It looked terrible but I feel relief that I'm doing it. You inpired me to do it for myself and not for everyone. I should continue...❤Thanks❤

      Alicia Spadafora I think it's because it's the first thing we see inside the book. The first page is our first impression of the sketchbook, so if the first page is imperfect we'll think the whole book is imperfect.. I really don't know anything about art but it's just what I think

    I usually not only skip the first page , I skip a whole drawing if it doesn’t look PERFECT or realistic.
    You thought me that you should not worry about what others think and to create and experiment so much with my work!
    Thank you so much!

    this is my favourite channel of art ever! So inspirational😭😭 i very love it when u say that we do art for ourselves and no need to show others because i have this one friend , she also love art and does fill her sketchbook with painting that just a mixing of color of purple n light pink that could amaze all of my classmates even my teacher , she brought her sketchbook to school everyday n i think she just want to show off what she did but i dont care . i said this because before her i also does bring my sketchbook to school but i didnt show it , i just take it out from my bag if im bored and there was no teacher in class , n then one day i realise it that i think i must be showing off the art that looks ordinary and stopped bringing my sketchbook to school . but i still love my art eventho my classmate compared this girl's art n mine n he said her art is more attractive than mine but i didnt care n just said whatever because i believe every single person have different mind and creativity to create an amazing art! thanks Makoccino! 💞🌸☺

    I am literally sitting here with a stack of notebooks I got for 2018 for different areas of my life and they are all blank because they are so beautiful and I'm afraid to mess them up. I'm going to take your advice to heart and just start on them 💗 I would recommend for others that feel this way to get or set up a disc bound art journal though, I have no problem keeping that religiously because I can always take a sheet out easily or add different kinds of paper or change the order.

    • @chanelluci9029
      @chanelluci9029 6 лет назад +6

      I add water to them and gently swipe my painting tool across the top. When you gently swipe the top you get less pigment. When you apply more pressure, you get more pigment.
      Its all about water balance.
      The more water generally, less pigment = pastels.
      The less water mostly, more pigment = saturated colors.
