hey leigh what sketchbook do you use thanks
oh, this one? this a J14 magazine, thanks for asking Cheyenne!
@@LeighEllexson I was really glad to see a sassy question out-sassed by an answer, thank you both.
As a viewer, i LOVE watching sketchbook tours and listening to you reflecting on your art. But I think it is SO important for you, for any artists, and really anyone, to have a secret garden, art that they keep to themselves. I encourage you to keep some of your art for you, if you ever hesitate. As viewers, we don’t need to see or know everything. Boundaries are loving, helpful and healthy! Cheers 🥂
I think the 'ugly sketchbook' is perhaps the most important sketchbook as it's the one that allows one... (me) to be the most free, and get over the resistance of the blank page. Leigh, the expressions on the faces of your animals are just... unparalleled. I love them!
Quick tip, to paint on a paper who don t handle it, you can paint the page with gesso before, let it dry open and then paint it with acrylique or gouach. It take a little bit more time … very inspiring video !
Hi Leigh, I'm just wondering? What? Is? This? Sketchbook? Thanks!
🤣😂😆
it's a math textbook I refurbished :-)
She says it's a Strathmore (5.5" x 8") but not sure what model/type!
@@LeighEllexson LOL 😆
😂😂😂 I ended up with that same dought!!!
This sketchbook tour video came at exactly the right time. I was having a not so good moment at home and this cheered me right up. Thanks Leigh, you're the BEST!!! 🥰🥰🥰
Perfect timing!!
Here for an “ugly” sketchbook and fun Leigh! 😍 also, living for the chonky cats and dogs page ❤️
Yes! Here for fun!!
omg that tape might be from me??? I was using it for a little bit (idk tho) it's from a taiwanese artist called yohandstudio !!!!
#caught #thankmeggy #ily
ugh i aspire to be your levels of loose and just having fun with your art and your work just effortlessly turns out pretty hOW
hi!!! the washi tape at 13:08 is by yohand and it's still available on their etsy shop!
I love all the variety!! I love "ugly" sketchbooks so much
Me too! The vibes of “ugly” sketchbooks are exactly what I’m looking for in life
Sketchbook tours are so inspiring! I love seeing what people make, especially in a more loose way than just finalized pieces ☺️
I appreciate so so much that you always remind about drinking water. It’s so simple but so easy to forget and I really appreciate that. Love you girl
"Usually don't watch my video but watch my sketch book tour"😅 1000% right coz I and I'm sure everyone else watch literally all sketch book tour no matter whose video it is 😅😂 and your cute birds brought me here can't resist there cuteness 😅
ily this was the bestest sketchbook tour bc you had fun
I admire so so much how you approach your sketchbook. It's taken me years and years to start allowing myself to loosen up and be more experimental and free in my sketchbooks. I always struggled with perfectionism, even if no one else saw it -- I put so much pressure on myself to make each page ✨art✨.
Your work over the years has helped me realize that the fun is in the messiness and casual approach. You've helped give me permission to loosen up and try new things and make art that is straight up weird, because it's all a part of the beautiful process. Thank you for making this sketchbook tour, it's always so inspiring!
Also I'm drinking water, thank you for the reminder.
I also love how fun and casual this sketchbook is. I think artists underestimate how much we love stuff that to them may have come easy and was even fun to do.
I'm not saying we can't work on improving and developing ourselves. And of course that process is a big part of what makes art so fulfilling.
But you've already worked so hard to get as good as you are now, and I'm clearly not the only one who loves your style, subjects, and use of colour.
You love what you do, we love what you do.
Your so cute! Before Instagram sketchbooks to me were supposed to be really rough sketches ideas writing. Now it seems everyone has fully finnished art pieces in there sketchbooks. Which is fine and beautiful yet I also enjoy seeing the unfinished rawness of a sketchbook that serves as a place to experiment , plan, test , swatches , plan bigger pieces. But I also have sn affinity for finnished artwork that’s purposely unfinished. This is gorgeous so fun to see! The colors and subjects just ur overall style is right up my alley:)
In case you wanted to know, the difference between an artist and an illustrator is the type of message conveyed and not visually how it looks. An illustrator must illustrate the message/concept of a client in order to be diffused, usually for advertising or to illustrate a text. The artist instead create art with personal meaning. You are clearly an artist and an amazing one!
Ok.. when you said "at the beginning of the Panini"... I couldn't stop laughing... !!
Your channel, vibe, art... you in general are so inspiring. I would love to have my own artshop one day, kind of like you... only my version yeah! I am just drawing like nuts right now... Thank you for inspiring me with your beautiful art and chilled out self. I am grateful to u. I hope to purchase a print from you soon to send a bit of support for all you do. Stay hydrated and well.
thank you for doing these sketchbook tours even though you hate doing them, they are always a highlight for me and I rewatch them throughout the year
I lovee how you use your sketchbook with lots of colors! I’m usually a pencil + black ink sketchbook girl so always get a lot of inspiration seeing your videos 💗
Your shirt! I love the kitty with 10 legs!
Those blobby flowers remind me of Vera. We alllll had her sheets in the ‘70s.
Hey a fellow climber! Had this on in the background but the minute you mentioned red river gorge my ears perked up. Literally my favorite place in the world. 😊
This brought me hella good vibes big hearts to u Leigh
Hi Leigh I’ve just graduated and currently in between jobs!! You and Megan Wang have inspired me to get groovy and start creating art for fun! Thank you, your videos are the highlight of my weeks 💗
I've been binging sketchbook tours and this one was so refreshing to see !
Thank you so much for showing us your art, it gives a lot of inspiration💖💗!
9:30 so cool that you used your highschool self as inspiration! 🥰 Your work in this sketchbook is beautiful and interesting. Love all the colors and subjects, and how the white space varies from page to page.
MAGICAL VIDEO!!!!
I’m a witch 🪄
I've never made it to a premiere before, I'm so excited!

I LOVE the pink! You can definitely rock any color😍
Thank u 💞
Thank you for sharing how you have used your drawing sketchbook for experimentation, idea generation, notes, etc.. "Ugly" (working) sketchbooks are so valuable to process and development. Love your work!
Agreed!
Thank you for sharing your work, even the stuff you don't love! I love your work and definitely drank water. A+ for everyone!
I love this sketchbook, so good! Leigh, you are SO talented! inspired me once again!
Thanks for sharing your sketchbook with us, Leigh! ^_^ I always love seeing how experimental you are in your art making. It encourages me to try more things in my own sketchbook!
Thank you for doing the sketchbook tour even though they’re boring for you! I love seeing people’s loose sketches because I do mine the same way!!
omg, this is my first time watching a sketchbook tour that is so casual. You make me remind myself that its okay not to be consistent at times! Your video makes me feel no pressure and its okay to have ugly pages. Thank you!!! 💗💗💗
The tiger stalking through the jungle a few pages in blew my mind. So in love!!! Sooooo amazing 😻
Love your hair! I need to re-do my red.
Cute book! I love the variety of styles you've been trying. Thanks for a relaxing Friday morning!
It’s been a while since I get onto the RUclipss, and this was such a wholesome tour. Love your work, Leigh 🌸
Absoluty living for your vids Leigh, it always give me such good vibes! Your the best :)

Just discovered your channel this morning! First video I've seen and happily subscribing for more!! I love your art and your care free mentality. I plan on making art videos soon and this has inspired me to do a sketchbook tour hopefully soon. Love your work ❤ had a lot of fun watching and hearing your commentary
ALL the good vibes!!!
Fabulous art in your sketchbook! Enjoyed every bit of the video tour! 👏👏👏
Great still-life wired flowers! I likey.
OMGG YOU INSPIRE ME SOOO MUCH TO FINISH MY SKETCHBOOKS !! :,)) your art style is amazing
That was such a fun tour...and such an inspiring sketchbook 😍
Omg Leigh the 3 stacked frogs would be such a cute sticker! With each a different color🤩🐸 And I love that purple tiger with the green background!😍💜🐯
Such a magical video! So inspiring to “let go” a bit more in my own work thank you 💕✨
YES GET IT
i love you’re voice, like if you had a podcast i’d watch it!
For real?? It just so happened I DO have a podcast @yeahmaybepodcast
A lovely stroll through your artwork. Thank you!
gonna work on art homework after this, thanks for the good vibes!
I get so excited when I see you have a new video 💥 💜
So much joy. Happy V-Day!
I love your use of color!
Love, love, love this tour! Cas/uggo/chill sketchbooks are sometimes the best sketchbooks. And I had that strathmore once. ONCE. Because I began to resent it for never chilling out and laying flat. So that's my review no one asked for.
Yeah idk what the deal is
The pages of drawing requests are some of my favourite! So nice and satisfying to look at. I would buy Toadie on the leaf In some format in a heartbeat! Also the black texter flowers + cows is brilliant :) xo
Omg the birdies are so cute!
i like, both the sketchbook and the hair
Love the casual walk through and I’m terribly nosey, so thanks!
I needed this inspiration to get back into sketching this was fun and freeing thanks for Sharing Leigh 🤗
Love it. It’s so beautiful and you have a great voice to listen to
Thanks :’)
recently found your channel and you’ve been such an inspiration to me!!!!
Happy to hear that!!!
I adored this one Leigh!!! So many fantastic birds (especially that Canyon Wren). Makes me itch to go draw in mine!!!!

your butterflies/moths were soooo beautiful 😍
*cheers water bottle to Leigh* (me every video)

Love this sketchbook tour, so coming back to rewatch it…it’s on in the background quietly at work with captions, and your name was spelt “Lee Elison”…cracked me up, as you were trying to explain how to say your name, and it had it so wrong 😂
Loved this! Also I finished my 18oz water bottle full of water while watching this. 👍🏻
Beautiful art as always!
Thank you thank you
Love your art style😍d’ya think you could do a video on the art supplies you use??!

Your style is so delish…lol idk how it’s so refined and so understated / effortlessly cool at the same time!!! P.S. Long time no toad 🤙
Loooooved the tour
This was great! Thank you so much for sharing! Super inspiring 😊 I got a fresh Sketchbook in the beginning of the year and want to use it just like this! As a low pressure journal type sketch book
That sounds soo fun! Cheering for you~
@@smileyy6533 aww ☺️ thank you
Depreocupied sketchbook tour! I love it! 😍
thank you!!
You're an inspiration! 🙌 Thanks!!!
I love toadie on the leaf 🥺
Been loving the nina cosford sketchbook too! ♥️
You are pure inspiration
Yaassss let’s see it
After watching this I want to draw more birds 🐦 ❤️
i'm vibin with the pink hair sis
I LOVE ALL THE BIRDS 10/10 EVERY SINGLE ONE
My sketchbook and I have a complicated relationship that I’m trying to work on. It was a work horse when I was in college so I’m trying to bring it back to a friendship again 😊
Thank you for sharing your light
LOVED IT!!! Yay for messy / ugly / free from stress sketchbooks! BEST!
They’re the BEST
Handy tip for A sizes! A4 is basically the same as Letter/8.5×11. Each A size is half or double the next A size. So cut or fold an A4 in half like a greeting card, and you get A5, A6 is half that, A7 is half that. Double an A4 makes A3.
Life hack alert 🚨
u r soooooo talented :D
I was wondering when /if the tour of this sketchbook will come :P
I thought you changed your mind about touring it...
So happy to see this video
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
