I always used to skip the first two pages, planning to make an introduction page later but never would. I'm almost fourty now and I'm actually going to go back through my old sketchbooks and really do it. I've also only drew on one side of the paper and I've been going back and drawing on the reverse side. So now I have sketchbooks with old and new art mixed in. 🙃 Kind of weird but it's been so satisfying. I love your art and color choices! I aspire to be looser with my art like you are. 🧚♀️
I love that you mix old and new!! that's very cool and brave haha! a really fun way to compare growth/changes. ❤️
I think the daunting freshness of a new sketchbook is something that a lot of artists relate to - I think just about everyone seems to personalise the front in some way, usually stickers
I adore how you lay down colours all higgledy piggledy, playing with colour is my go to as well!
Love these ideas!
My main sketchbook thing has been doing a 20-30min watercolour painting in a teeny A6 sketchbook in my lunch time at work. Sometimes en plain air, sometimes using a reference image
I LOVE that!
Sophie, been binge watching yer videos, you are so incredibly talented!
Your sketches are super simple but your lines are SO confident they looks amazing! That’s one thing I need to work on. Confident lines. I also want to do more stream of consciousness drawing
i’ve just stumbled upon your page and i’m obsessed with how freely and loosely you create art!! i need to get to that😭
❤️ thank you so much!!!
Lovely and relaxing - a perfect way to start my morning. Thank you!
I use the last few pages first. Lol. Then as you get excited about finishing, there's actually even less!
I just make a mess for the first few pages and when my mind goes blank, i usually have more pages in the book that are all over the place😝
I love your videos and art so much Sophie, you are the most inspiring artist on the internet :D
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️ ahhh
Haces que parezca tan fácil , lo intentaré, gracias por compartir ❤
I really hope I can take your advice to heart over the course of my new sketchbook. ❤
Damn giving me ideas to film for my new sketchbook.. might make a video on it I dunno yet 😮
So relaxing and refreshing 😊
I loved this Sophie!
fantastic ideas! i love your colourful blobs 🥰 i start with spreading some colors too ! 😍
I love this so much! I'll have to remember this when I start my next sketchbook! It's very daunting haha 🤣
ty so much for the vid! I'm always afraid of starting a new sketckbook, will try your tips, loved all of them 💕✨
I left a like on this video just like I always do when you upload: Right away, 5 seconds into the video, because I just know it's gonna be good and I'll absolutely love it and be inspired. ;D
What a breath of fresh air you are Sophie! Just suscribed. You help me on grumpy mode mornings to find my inspo. Wonderful!
PS: I have drawn diaries and created my own sketchy stories with my own weird alt-universe sci fi characters since I was a girl(56 yrs now). I always paint my black covered sketchbooks with FolkArt Dragonfly glaze glittery pearlescent and holograph shift paints. Maybe put some 3-D texturey stickers on top(like round glittery plastic ones). You have some cool ideas! Thanks again
Personally, I just draw in simple shapes either with pencil or with marker/watercolor. Do I actually art in the bounds of those circles/squares/hexagons? Almosy never, but just those few marks lulls my brain and makes it okay for me to play or work. I also do have different sketchbooks for different mediums cause oh lordy, having to wait for an oil paint study to cure for a week before you can turn the page is AGONY or trying to use alcohol markers on the otherside where you did watercolors does some eldritch crafts to the other pages.
I felt the anxiety reduce as soon as you blobbed tldown the first couple paint on the cover already! I love whacking plopps of color too, something very therapeutic about it, great idea! Thanks for sharing 😍
What a totally lovely video 💚 Thank you :)
OMG! I feel you. I love it when it's tidy and clean and ruled out with crisp whit borders all nice... and I try but I must say that I think that I work on chaos and my persona just spills chaos and messines ( in a good way) but i feel a cramp when I start doing the things too neatly hahaha I don't know how to explain it
It’s like a ball of rubber bands! You get tighter and tighter the more rubber bands you add to the ball! But it’s way more fun when there’s just rainbow rubber bands all over the place! Hahaha
Love this! I do a lot of the same with my sketchbooks. I have big Blank Page Anxiety - so many of my notebooks are crinkled up from lots of splotchy blobby pages. I love just kind of zoning out and laying down colours i am diggin' at the moment. and I love going through and looking for shapes! like cloud hunting
So much valuable advise! Thanks a ton for sharing it with us, Sophie. 💖
Glad it was helpful!❤️❤️❤️
Sophie, you've done it again :D Wonderful art, lovely doodly scribbles and bright colors and your videos always get me energized to doodle in my own sketchbook!
Thank you so much ❤️❤️ that makes me so happy
Love all these ideas and the sense of fun and play!
🥰 Thank you!!
I have totally gone to the art store and brought to same color pencils thinking that I didn't have one or just liked their color haha. and I use the phomemo printer for packaging and free stickers at a art fairs or conventions.
Similar to putting stickers in, I also like to paste in cutouts from magazines or using a quote I like to practice some calligraphy. I also paste in stuff I’ve drawn on loose sheets of paper sometimes.
I’m definitely going to try adding color blobs to my pages, it looks fun.
Hi Sophie ! Lovely vid as usual !😍 sketchbook vids are always my favourite thing to watch ! Also, what fountain pen are you using here ? looks sooo juicy ! Thanks ❤
It's a Sailor Fude De Mannen!!
I love laying down left over paint and drawing over the top too, but I really struggle with just doodling. I never know what to doodle and it seems my mind just goes blank 😂Going back through old sketchbooks is super fun too! Lovely video Sophie and some cool ideas for starting a sketchbook!
Your landscapes with the colour splashes are the best!! ❤️❤️❤️
Pre-blobonaded 😂😂. Lovely video, just found your lovely channel
A very technical term! hahaha!
You are a sweetie pie! I have no tips for you. I don’t draw, tho I can and I have. Your pre-blobinated pages are a riot. Fun! I would like to see you draw other things. When I saw that hilarious frog sticker, I wanted very much to see you draw frogs in those blobs. 🐸🐸🐸 Something different, tho I do like the ladies. Did you ever watch an American western, and there’s a portrait of a reclining buxom woman hanging over the bar in the saloon? Big ornate frames with buxom ladies enticing the customers to [drink more beer]. 🍺🍺🍺 Love ya, Sophie. You’re blobtastic!
BLOBALICIOUS!
Love your creativity! Enjoyed this video a lot! Xoonani
This was such an inspiring video! Gave me plenty of ideas. My first page in my sketchbooks have been my swatch pages for a while, a little less pressure. :)
Glad it was helpful! Yeah! Swatch pages look great and they're practical! haha x
I know EXACTLY what you mean about the paper. Especially about it being spongy.
I've been using your blobs of colour technique for a couple months or so and I am so in love with it. It makes even doodle pages look finished somehow.
YESSS! :)
Hi, I just found your channel! I love sketchbooks too but last year I took a long unplanned break from my sketchbook and now I'm trying to get back into it. A lot of my sketchbooking is just drawing my own comic characters but I like to try out new things. I'm definitely gonna try your color blob prep technique! :)
Hi!!!! Ah that sounds amazing! Drawing our own OCs and comics is such a nice sketchbook time x enjoy the blobs!!
Those paint blobs on the cover are such a simple and gorgeous idea! Sometimes I can't even really believe how many cute and simple ideas just completely fly over my head until I see another artist do it, and then it's like " How didn't I ever think of doing that?" XD Decorating covers was never something I thought about until I started watching artists on youtube!
I was surprised actually when you mentioned that the paper was only 100gsm, considering how much you love to use ink and paint! I was super curious to hear how the paper would handle your work but yeah, that's kind of what I expected. Having said that, you still managed to really bring life into those pages, which is so hard with paper that thin. Especially when, like you said, it just kind of eats any liquid media you put on it. You really made it work for its wage! XD
Do you ever get disheartened with sketchbooks like that? What I mean is, do you find you get less excited to use it, or do you feel like you want to migrate into another one? I had that problem earlier this year; I bought a new sketchbook and I hated the paper. So I ripped out what I'd done and moved into another one, which I also didn't like. And I feel like I'm wasting those books but I also don't feel I can work as well in something I don't enjoy. So picky, I know! Haha. Do you generally just power through them anyway?
Anyway, I really loved this video a lot. You just seem to have such an endless font of creativity, and the effortlessness with how you approach everything is so refreshing. Things have been pretty low here lately, and your videos are really just the jab of brightness needed. They're like having a good arty gab with a friend!
I'm definatly less satisfied with the way ink and wet paint look and feel on this paper - but I'm really okay with it! I like working in slightly cheaper sketchbooks, they challenge me!!!!! I'll power through it for sure, then probably go back to the last books I used! hahah ❤️❤️
That's a pure creativity! 😊🧡
@@christinemuller3526 For an artist to keep the creativity of a child is a real talent. I really enjoy the work of Sophie McPike because she is able to mix "grown up" technics with "child" creativity. The result is amazing. Lot's of hard work, but with colors, with pleasure and lot's of artistic sensibility you won't find easily elsewhere. Henri Matisse worked 60 years to find this. And lot's of "great artists" didn't find it. So congratulation to Sophie McPike for her artistic journey. And thanks to her for sharing it generously.
@@1479Grofunk Couldn't agree more!
Childlike creativity is the best, and you've definitely got that Sophie! Someone says you're creative like a 3 year old?! What a compliment! You're amazing Sophie!
Eric, I couldn't say it better regarding Sophie's work and playful creativity. For me, as a kiddo, I had to grow up really quickly and was made to feel like the way I drew was too "childish". Finding Sophie's work has helped to validate my lil kid self and my grown up self. My preferred creative output is with mixed mediums and as scribbly as possible. Crayons, paint, markers, fibre.
It's a joy to watch Sophie's creations come to life in her own scribbly, creative, youthful style. There should be no age limits or gatekeeping to creativity or artistic styles. Just get to doodlin'!
The thing about not being able to lay things out perfectly and wishing to be like that: I am SO GLAD you are not like that! Perfectionism does not come from a good place, and for me it has been such a major hinderance and source for procrastination :D So I like watching YOU for inspiration, because YOU seem to just DO THINGS, and they are absolutely wonderful.
❤️❤️❤️ thank you so much xoxoox
What pen are you using for the little blob doodles? It looks sooo smooth and fun to draw with.
Ooh do you mean the fine line pen at the beginning? I think it was a Pilot GTEC??
Please make video about your art supplies.
I have one!!! Have a look through my videos :)
Hi sophie! What time are your patreon art hangs? I'm from europe and unsure if i can join witn australian time zones being so different!
Sorry for the late reply!!! it's at 10am AEST on Wednesday mornings :)
I think I’ll put some quotes about sunshine in my spread I’m using neon oranges and yellows in I have a different type label maker but I have neon orange and yellow colored labels. Thanks for your videos I’m a new viewer and you’re awesome!
