Don’t be scared of the blank page. Like you, I have many sketchbooks going and have not finished them. But I really enjoy working in all of them. I love your channel. Your art and voice is just so comforting. Thank you!
Don't be scared of the blank page. Beautiful sketchbook tour. I cherish my sketchbooks. Over the last couple of years I started embracing my sketchbooks and now I totally love working in them.
Don’t be scared of the blank page. I enjoyed watching this. Thanks for sharing.
I’m such an introvert and use art as a coping mechanism tool in today’s “ interesting” world. I find your channel content so relaxing and inspiring. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent and all of the hard work you put into your channel. Keep up the amazing content ! You are my muse, Natasha. Wishing you continued success and happiness! Thank you once again and don’t be scared of the blank page!💕🎨
Amazing sketchbook tour. To ensure I'm not afraid of a blank page or starting a new sketchbook I don't work in a sketchbook in order from page one and on...I grab my sketchbook, close my eyes and flip to whatever page my hand stops on...I often times then take a dirty paint brush or old paint off my palette and flick paint onto the page...so now my page isn't in order and it isn't clean so I'm no longer afraid ...really helps me❤. Anyway, great video, and thanks for sharing. Don't be afraid of a blank page...lol
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! This is a great tip and one I should try. Thank you for sharing!
"Don't be scared of the blank page" is something I definitely should be chanting to myself every morning in front of a mirror 😅
Lovely flip-through, Natasha! ❤- Like you, I will say to myself: Don't be scared of the blank page! 😄😍😘
One of the reasons I adore your artwork is because it's so much like true Folk Art which has been my all time favorite as long as I can remember and I just turned 70. Even though I love it I don't have the patience or creativity to paint that way and found painting photo realistic portraits simpler because I didn't have to think or be imaginative. I do love loose watercolors too but everyone does it and it doesn't take a lot of thought either. It's just another style of painting. Tight details are very important in Folk Art styles and trying to paint loose doesn't really work for that. So please don't fuss about trying to get looser in your painting approach because your will lose that special charm that makes Folk Art so creative, extraordinary and special. Bottom line, don't listen to others opinions, just paint what you love to paint.
I truly appreciate your comment so much, thank you!
Don't be scared of the blank page!...😱What a fun journey, thank you!
Don't be scared of the blank page. Great video. Love your foxes and trees!
Don't be scared of the blank page. I really love your sketchbook work, Natasha. So cozy. :)

Thank you, Irina!
don't be afraid of the blank page. Nice tour thank you
Thanks for watching!
Don’t be scared of the blank page. I very much enjoyed seeing your sketchbooks. I think the three birds in the tree would be wonderful on a canvas and I imagine it would sell quickly. Thank you for the video.
Thank you, I'm so glad you liked it!
Don't be scared of the blank page! Loved the tour! Very inspiring and made me want to paint!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
Don’t be scared of the blank page!! These are beautiful!

Thank you so much!
Loveley sketchbook tour! Don't be scared of the blank page 😊
Don’t be scared of the blank page! Thank you so much for sharing your work ❤❤❤ so inspiring and beautiful
Thank you so much, Kelly!
I really enjoyed this video. Watched it 2 weeks ago on my tv and just now remembering to comment. Understand an artist wanting to try new things and increase their skills. But please know your current style is an ongoing refuge for me. It is the perfect antidote for the chaos and turmoil of present day life. I can always watch one of your videos to lift my spirits and calm my soul. Thank you so much for sharing it wit us all.🥰
This is really lovely to hear, thank you. :)
Don’t be scared of the black page! Natasha, your sketchbooks are so beautiful! And I really like your sketches, like the foxes for exemple.
I want to paint more foxes now!
Don't be scared of a blank page 😮😅😊 I have load of sketchbooks waiting to be opened, but that scare of the blank page is insane.... I'm not an artist or anything, I'm only dipping my toes into an unknown world of art...
Thank you for sharing the contents of your sketchbooks ❤😊
don/t be scared of the blank page. Enjoyed!!! I'm no longer fearing a blank page. Life is short so I just paint it.
That's a great attitude!
Don’t’ be scared of the blank page! Love your sketchbook your! I have a few sketchbooks filled with a few drawings and paintings here and there. Your works are beautiful, detailed and even the timed sketches captured the essence of the scenes. Your arts are truly unique and your voice matches the mood of your paints perfectly!
Thank you so much. :)
Don't be scared of the blank page 😀. Thanks for sharing
No tengamos miedo de la página en blanco 🎨🎉💕🧚♀️
Don’t be scared of the blank page. ❤ thank you for sharing. I remember watching the video where you were quite apprehensive about working in your sketchbook. I’m so glad that you are willing to share your work. It’s so lovely.
Thank you so much!
13:48 This one reminds me of maybe a slightly spooky illustration in a children's book. If it were in bright colors...it would be a totally different feel. Love it ❤
Don't be scared of the blank page - Really enjoyed this Natasha - I'm a bit stuck today so watching your sketchbook tour has helped a little. Thank you for sharing.
That's lovely to hear, thank you Kay!
Don’t be scared of the blank page! Thank you. Interesting and will definitely help the fear! Why do we do this, it’s very odd, because there should be no pressure!
Don't be scared of the blank page! ❤
Don't be scared of the blank page. Thanks for sharing your lovely sketchbooks. You achieved a lot in the limited time illustrations... I'm really slow🐌💜💫
Thank you so much!
Don’t be scared of the blank page… I really appreciate your videos :)
Thank you so much!
I'm getting over my fear of the blank page, Natasha's famous pebble swatching helps big time to break in a page hahahah
It's great for that!
I absolutely loved this tour of your sketchbooks, very informative, chatty and fun, and I can’t wait until your next sketchbook tour! It’s so fascinating to peek inside the art laboratory of an artists sketchbook. Thank you for sharing your creative process, and for being so generous with your thoughts, tips, techniques, and the stories behind the sketches ✍️ Don’t be scared of the blank page is great advice! 😊💝🎨✨📕✏️💡📚🖌️🤗😘 xxx
Thank you, Dominic! I love the thought of a sketchbook being like an artists' laboratory. :) I'm so glad that you enjoyed this peek inside mine! 🤗😘 xxx
Dont be scared of the blank page. What a wonderful video i really enjoyed it. Beautiful vignettes.
So glad you enjoyed it! Thanks Gaye.
Don’t be afraid of the blank page! ❤️🌿
Don't be scared of the blank page!!!
What a wonderful and beautiful share!!!
Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
Never fear the blank page! Thanks Natasha!
Hi Jill! :)
Absolutely love your sketch books, certainly nothing to be ashamed of 😍. Thank you very much for sharing. Don’t be scared of the blank page
Thank you so much!
Don't be scared of a blank page! Natasha, I am greatful for this and as always feel very inpsired to create. You're an amazing artist with a distinct gorgeous style and even your sketches are perfect, to me anyway ❤️Thank you for sharing
That's very kind, thank you! I'm so glad that it inspired you. :)
Hi Natasha, Don’t be scared of the blank page. Beautiful sketchbook pages. Thankyou so much for sharing your beautiful art I love so much. Lots of love xxx 🥰
Thanks Louise! xxx
Dont be scared of the blank page! Fab video, I have so many pages in mine i do not like, so I may steal your idea to paint over or decoupage them! 😊
Don’t be scared of the blank page. Thanks, that was a very interesting tour of your sketchbooks. I admire your very distinctive style and colour palettes, also that you use mixed media to achieve your desired effect. 😊
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)
I'm not scared of the blank page after watching your very nice work coming over the interwebs to us! You've made me want to take sketchbooks on my triip next week...let's see if I can enjoy myself as much as you do! Many thanks for your channel!
I'm so glad that it has inspired you! Thank you for watching.
Thank you for the inpspirational tour! I too will try not to be scared of the blank page :)
Don’t be scared of the blank page! I first found you when released a video of you painting the moon in a sketch book which I loved! So great to see more of your sketch books ❤
Aw, thanks Lisa!
Don't be scared of blank page. Wonderful video Natasha! Enjoyed getting sneak peak into your sketchbooks. :))
Thanks Kriksis!
Don’t be scared of the blank page. I am someone who is now a little scared of working outside of my sketchbook, I never used to be but I love my sketchbooks so much that o struggle a little when trying to branch out. Loved the sketchbook tour, some lovely drawings and colour palettes.
That's interesting! It can feel like a 'safe space' sometimes. :)
Don't be scared of the blank page. Very nice to watch read somewhere that you should just scribble on the first one so you will just use it already 😆. I'm currently busy in 4 sketch books because I've to wait for it to dry so I'll go to the next one. When I finish 2 of those I'm making a separate sketch book for all my swatches. Having those spread over 4 different kind of paper sketchbooks is not so handy.
Learned that I really like the Canson spiral bound ones and they do have different papers but this one will stay mostly flat when you work on it. Splurged way to much on watercolours and want to have my collection swatches in one place.
Love this sketchbook tour! 💖Thank you for touching on the fears of making sketchbooks perfect & learning to be less precious with them… something I’ve definitely struggled with.
Also ADORE the painting at 13:00!! The more loose quality to me allows more movement and life to the scene, bringing in some of the wildness of nature into the painting… it's so interesting and compelling to look at 😍
Thank you so much! I'm so pleased that you enjoyed it. :)
Fabulous! Loved the tour. And yes! Don’t be scared of the blank page! Sometimes easier said than done lol. But you’ve given me some great inspiration! Thanks for sharing.
That's lovely to hear, thank you!
The sketchbooks look so good, wonderful tour ☺☺
Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
Don't be scared of the blank page. I really enjoyed your first official sketchbook tour.
Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
Hi Natasha! This was a good video for me as I am sometimes reluctant to use my sketchbooks. The idea of painting over something I don't like was a bit of a breakthrough for me. It's really nice that you and Kriksis have joined up. I enjoy her work as well. I won't be intimidated by the blank page anymore!
I'm so glad it was helpful, Beth!
Please, don`t be scared of the blank page! It's only paper. (I tell myself that a lot) Thank you for this video! I loved seeing all of it. The experiments, the successes, the not so succesful. It's art and it's all beautiful! I want to move in to any one of your cottages, and hopefully have a fox living nearby. Have a wonderful day. 🌻
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you loved it. :)
Don't be scared of a blank page ❤ Thank you so much for sharing, Natasha!🌸 I ve recently started keeping sketchbooks as well, I m currently finishing my second one. And as I started this habit I found out that sketchbooks keep me more relaxed, but when I need to do some precise work, I become quite lazy to draw with all the details. I find it interesting behavior but I m also a bit struggling with it😅 but I think keeping a sketchbook is wonderful because you can revisit your ideas and make them into bigger or more detailed works
Well done for almost finishing your second sketchbook!
Don't be scared of the blank page. Love seeing people's sketchbooks & yours were especially lovely. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
Don't be afraid of the blank page! Thank you for sharing these--a fun mix of exploring, experimenting, playing, observing, and being in the moment, wherever you are.
Don’t be scared of the blank page. Thank you for the sketchbook tour and for the live nature channel recommendation, so peaceful
Don’t be scared of the blank page!
Fav is the Nature Live Stream version 2 from Feb this year ❤
Thank you so much, Wendy!
Great vid❤. Don’t be scared of the blank page 🙃
Don't be scared of the blank page! At times when I work in my sketch book I wish I had done the work on better paper. Then, other times instead on good paper, I should have worked it out in my sketch book first! Yikes! Thanks for taking us on your first tour, very informative and well done!
Thank you so much!
Dint be scared of the blank page😊
Thank you so much for sharing, what a joy ☺️ Love seeing the exploration and trials of ideas/styles 🌻
Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
gossssh that page with super granulating paints 🥰
Don’t be scared of the blank page! 😉This sketch book tour was Fabulously inspiring! Thank you so Much, Natasha! I do subscribe to Kriksis, Melanie Chadwick, and Sandi Hester as well- you All are so inspiring to me in my own artwork - God Bless you!
Thank you so much! I'm really pleased that you enjoyed it.
Don’t be scared of the blank page! Thank you, Natasha.
I love the collage, it works so well💚
Very nice sketchbook tour! Some pieces grabbed me and would love to try to recreate them I my sketchbook, which has been used once only for swatching. 😅 Don‘t be scared of the blank page - is the perfect phrase to include in my sketchbook to try to keep me motivated to use it. Thank you!
21:14 if you painted the page behind the same color as the blue sky, the illusion of a space behind it would be complete.
Your sketchbooks are wonderful! I love your handwriting, it’s so neat!
Ha ha, thank you!
Very inspiring! Love how your style wanders. #Don't be scare of the blank page :-)
Lovely tour, I enjoy seeing real sketchbooks more than those perfect ones. It used to bother me when I messed up a sketch or had a page with random swatches, but I’ve decided to be chill about it. Not always easy, but it’s a fair reflection of me that day probably.
Don’t be scared of the blank page ❤
So glad you enjoyed it, Sonya!
So much beautiful work in your scetchbooks. Love your art style.
Thank you so much!
Don't be scared of the blank page. I really like the way you draw/sketch/paint...:)
Thank you!
So lovely. Thanks for sharing!
Don't be scared of the blank page :D This was fun! and you inspired me to go to mapcrunch! Already found a super cool tree, and Im screenshooting away :D
Don't be scared of the Blank Page. Yup, I made it all the way through. And I think you shouldn't be so dismissive of your swatches, I find them very interesting and colourful. They can be very informative too, useful and beautiful in a sketchbook. I started watching this because I've been thinking of doing a sketchbook tour recently - for my RUclips channel, so of course I was intrigued to see how you'd done yours. I especially liked your "Pebble Swatches" that's a lovely way to do it.
You've given me an idea...thank you! All will be revealed in due course. ;)
Hello Natasha, I enjoyed your sketchbook tour so much. I love the different colours that you use. Your little houses are looking so cosy:)). I love the background colour and the tree in the sketchbook where you cut out a piece.That's a good idea to paint something on the next page. The sleeping fox looks so cute! I am very pleased that you are making videos with Kriksis:). I met Kriksis and Mel last year at your exhibition in Coverack. It was so nice to meet the two lovely women in person:). Too bad you weren't there. I'm looking forward to a new long relaxed video from you. Don't be scared of the blank page! Take care and mindful with yourself. Have a nice week. Gabi:)
Thanks Gabi! So lovely that you met Kriksis and Mel last year. :) x
Don't be scared of the blank page...great tour!
So glad you enjoyed it! Thank you.
Don't be scared of the blank page !!!!
Love this real sketchbook tour..... You (or your mum) won't be far from me, I'm in Sunny Suffolk too... if you know of any art clubs or classes in Suffolk worth looking at. I work from home drawing and would love a chance to meet like minded people.
I'm so glad that you enjoyed it, thank you! I actually live in Surrey now, but my mum lives in Suffolk (which is where I'm originally from). I love Suffolk! I totally get what you mean by working from home and needing company sometimes. :)
Don't be scared of the blank page. I loved seeing into your process. Very encouraging. 😊
Don't be scared of the blank page. Wonderful insights into your work...I just love your trees so much. Thanks for sharing
I'm thinking...no need to be nervous...seeing that FIRST page you show....doesn't look like anything in my sketchbooks. I wish. 😮 Beautiful!
Aw, thank you (again!).
Don't be scared of the blank page. Thank You for sharing your work! Lovely images!
Don’t be scared of the blank page 😊
Don’t be scared of the blank page. I used to be the same about keeping my sketchbooks perfect and then I broke out of that. I now reach for random pages and instead of covering up bad sketches I’m more likely to keep them or work on them. You have some beautiful spreads.
Random pages is such a good idea!
So beautiful, you are very talented Natasha.
That's very kind, thank you!
Don't be scared of the blank page! truly something to live by...
Don’t be scared of the blank page.
Loved the tour. I also have more than one sketchbook going at the same time.
