This week I take you along with me to a coffee shop to sketch and finish up a special and important sketchbook. Then give you a tour of that completed sketchbook. In it I share how life and art come together to hold memories and why my sketchbooks are so important to me. Things mentioned in this video are listed below.

Those coffee shop sketches are just timeless! Those could just as easily be in 19th c Paris. We always love the generous, juicy paint in Sandi's work! Everything about this sketchbook reminds us how worthwhile it is to make art, to observe and record the passing spectacle of life!

@sandihester Год назад

That’s quite a compliment Blick. As always - thanks so much for being here - means a lot!!!! Thanks for letting me know you enjoy it too ❤️

Love this, Sandi! I actually squealed when I saw that you did post a new video this week, and I am so glad your elbow is better! I can't wait for the bird class. I have taken your other classes and love them, too! Thank you for sharing your passion!

This book is a treasure Sandi and much thanks for taking us so joyfully through your life as an artist. Cooper's page is a testament to his years of patience while you painted, and included him in your days.

@lisasternenkind6467 Год назад

I need a sketchbook. I'm practicing on cheap drawing paper for school with all kinds of drawing and painting supplies. This is especially bad for my practices with watercolor of course. I tend to use my good paper, cardboards and canvasses only for others and the best only for art pieces I plan to sell. It's so much more fun to use paint on expensive materials of good and very good quality. But thanks to you and another artist I now realize that I have to be worth using at least the pretty good stuff also for myself. So thank you for this insight. 🙏🏻 It's extremely hot 🔥 here too. My relatively fluid acrylics dry in almost no time. 😓 So I'm sorting here with one ice pack wrapped around my neck and one icepack on my head. 🤕 We have good 40° C during the day, 34-38° C during the night. Insomnia guaranteed. 🥵 Thanks for sharing your sketchbook. Cheers from Germany. 🍻

Love the sketches and the memories attached. I have a few similar memories attached to sketches like when I got the call that my new home purchase was finally being finalised I was on holiday sketching. I wrote a little reminder about it in my sketch book.

@AnitasDreams Год назад

What a treat to see a new video from you. Glad that your elbow is better. WOW you sure have a lot of paintings in that sketchbook. I had that same brand of sketchbook but had not used it. After watching some of your videos I decided to start it. I've only gotten 2 pages done so far. I'm just not a good drawer & I am afraid of messing it up. Does that sound familiar. LOL

@sandihester Год назад

Does sound familiar but try and push past that and just enjoy it!! It’s a great sketchbook!

@fatpicklestudiomagdalenatu8990 Год назад

You inspire me so much I decided to do 100 or at least 30 days of sketching. I’m full time artist I’ve worked with many media, at the moment mainly textile. I can draw and paint as part of my mixed media work but that’s different from sketching life. Coffee shops, landscapes etc. it’s never been my thing. Well I’m determined now I’m on day 4, I sketched in a coffee shop, it’s such a mess 😂😂😂 I have hope though. Love your work.

@nancyloomis3046 Год назад

Love seeing your paintings…the ones with your sis really are special and I’m sure, precious to you. I think you mentioned that you get comments where people ask you “why you do so much work in sketchbooks?” I’m left wondering why viewers would ask, what seems to me to be a fairly obvious question and you’ve explained your love of sketchbook work many times. But I don’t think any artist really has to justify the “why, how, what, when, where,” of our art (unless you’re taking instructional classes or something like that.) I think it’s pretty evident that art, artists and the creative journey are all very individual and we make certain choices because it feels good to us, we get joy from it or we can grow and learn best that way and it’s just the way we like to do things. 😀❤️

@parkametrist7165 Год назад

When it's too hot or to cold to draw outside, I sometimes go to a public library to draw. Talking for a long time is frowned upon and the other visitors are immersed in their books and don't move a lot: it gives me enough time to sketch them and the distractive chit chat about my drawing with curious people is minimal. Is that an option for you?

@sandihester Год назад

That’s a great idea!
