@@sealdeer AHAHA YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN ME SITTING THERE FOR FIVE WHOLE MINUTES W MY EAR NEXT TO THE MONITOR LIKE “I really am hearing this right now 🤨” the best way I can describe it is it sounded like a mix between SpongeBob walking and a poot ☠️🪦
So true, just found this. second video i've watched and i just know i need to follow this because so much... flow in everything. i've made a whole new character from this video alone. very inspiring.
literally a minute into the video i suddenly had so many ideas and i started cutting things out of magazines and sticking things on in a frenzy the creativity just oozes out of their videos
Really love your laid-back attitude to art; no worrying about it looking polished, just trying new things and enjoying the act of creating. It's really inspiring! Subscribed, would love to see more videos like this and draw along with you. =)
I don’t know how to explain it, but your art perfectly matches your voice. And can I just say that I already love your way of filming and creating art with just watching this one video. The quiet music, the laid back editing, and you just stopping to talk about whatever while acting on ideas that might spice up a page, I love everything about it! It might sound a little silly for me to say this, but you putting in anything that matches your current page or makes you happy kinda changed the way I wanna fill my future sketchbooks. It’s honestly refreshing to see you not take your sketchbook so seriously after I’ve just spent months filling a sketchbook and countless loose pages with serious character backstories and full body drawings of their final designs, it has reminded me to take the time to just draw something that makes me laugh. So, thank you for opening my eyes on what I’d long forgotten about that had once made me start drawing. :) Apologies for the short rant, I just found this video very relaxing after today’s craziness :]
I just want to say this real quick.. Your art helps me A LOT. Not only with my inner perfectionist, but also with my inspiration! No joke whenever I feel uninspired or just flat out don’t know what to draw, watching your videos always gives me ideas! 💕💕
Oh my goodness hi! I’ve been on a binge of your videos lately, so when I saw this come out my heart skipped a beat! I have to say you are probably my biggest art inspirations! You inspired me to take my art more loosely and not put to much pressure on it. I had been stuck in a serious art block for a long while, and now that I’m just being so much more loose with my art it feels nearly impossible to get art block since nothing I make can feel bad when I’m making art just for the sake of creating! You’ve made such a impact on my art and it means so much and I’ve noticed such a huge improvement in my art! Thank you so much! You’ve made such a huge impact for me 😄
hi! to keep things short, a lot of things went wrong today and i have no clue what im gonna do. hearing someone so excited about the simplest things, and so kind and thoughtful and gentle makes me feel like maybe everything will work out. i don’t know. I just wanna say maybe today wasn’t a total waste. and i think seeing your art process, so carefree, is honestly getting me out of my art block right now. hope you’re having the loveliest day ever, friend, because you definitely made mine better :)
i've never been one for these kind of videos but man your relaxed and enthusiastic attitude is just phenomenal. i've been struggling with feeling like my art has to be "good enough" or whatever but just! your attitude is contagious! thank you so much for sharing this. absolutely wonderful.
the amount of confidence you have with making lines is amazing , watching others draw makes me think i put way too much thought in to everything lol, also your art styles so nice to look at ^^.
Just gotta say that the way you Speak, and just, Let it flow, just doing things because it’s nice and fun and makes you happy, it made me tear up in a positive way. As a pessimist who overthinks a lot, hearing you speak about it in such a lighthearted way truly helps me change my ways of seeing things. I want to think like that more often now, let things flow and let me be Happy with my own doings, even if they aren’t “Perfect”. Ah, and your taste for music is Chefs Kiss! :) Best wishes!
YEAHHH I ACTUALLY JUST STARTED A SKETCHBOOK TOO! I needed inspiration, and this was the first video that popped up in my recommended section, what are the odds
The pure joy I got from seeing a new video from you sealdeer was immense!! You seem like such a wonderful soul and your words and your art make me and so many other ppl happy. Keep on bein yourself, and thank you :)
I haven't drawn for a month or so and was feeling really disappointed with my art because I wasn't practicing, and this helped pull me out of my art block
ive found rewatching your videos when drawing in my sketchbook really helps me to find inspiration and also reminds me to use/experiment with colour since i dont do it very often and its been going really well, i also just love the comfort of your unedited format it just makes it all the more genuine,, :)
I love how exited you are to work on the new sketchbook! I never know how to start a new sketchbook so it just ends up sitting there and i stare at it lol, you seem to know what you want to do right away though and it very much motivates me
It's so cool to see your process of how you put things together!! I honestly have been wanting to start working on a new sketchbook but I'm worried I'll start losing motivation again haha
(I love ur pfp) if it's any consolation, I honestly hadn't been working in any kind of sketchbook for a few weeks, maybe a month before this! sometimes there's just other stuff going on ^_^ but it's always there to come back to when you're ready
It's amazing to see your process of starting a sketchbook. I personally love and share that attitude that sketchbooks are meant for whatever we want to do with them, no matter how messy and unorganized it gets. Also I gotta say, your videos always help me with anxiety, your voice is so angelic and soothing :) Please consider making more videos like this. Maybe "fill a spread with me" or something similar? Stay awesome
Whenever I get a sketchbook, its always just me trying to draw something, hating it and flipping to the next page. However, seeing your process has motivated me to go with the flow and ACTUALLY complete a sketchbook. Thanks for this! I'm gonna go to target and buy that same sketchbook later lol.
This is my first time watching your content and it is just so casual and chill, and you've already greatly influenced my approach to my art, making and embracing mistakes... Enjoying art and just drawing what makes me happy. I love it. The background music is nostalgic as all hell for me too
My first time seeing you on my recommended! I must say I was really pleased by the soft welcome I was greeted with. It just seemed as though I came out of a after-storm rain and was blessed with warm light instead of a cold place. I am very glad you came up, definitely astonished with joy!
this video have made me get over my fear of drawing in my sketchbook right on the paper. doesn’t stop the paper from being bad though :-/ but OH WELL I’m here for the vibes! i loved to see your ideas change and develop as you do and finish the page, they’re so spontaneous and it reminds me that what i draw on the page never has to be set in stone. your videos have also made me realise that perfection is not the point of art. this funky thing where i move a pen around with my hands on the paper is something i’m meant to enjoy, so i will make sure i actually do so in the future. do what you love and good luck for the new sketchbook, sealdeer!
i have been watching this video in smaller parts over like two weeks whenever i am stuck in creative block, and i have always had a small key moment where inspiration hit me. the relief or new ideas really is cathartic. thank you for your work! :3
IDK if u'll ever read this BUT this is THE VIDEO that inspired me to make my own sketchbook last year, its been 4 months now and i´ve been sketching and drawing non stop...
this video gave em the courage to finally buy my first actual sketchbook that is not a random notebook or something like that, just waiting for it to arrive now😄
it was genuinely groundbreaking when you went in with a marker and watercolor on the first page with such confidence, it was so inspiring!! i love your attitude towards having fun rather than aiming for perfection, a lot of artists have a lot to learn from you !! :) love from sweden
blind contour drawing!!!! changed my life also! the very first drawings of mine i ever loved as an adult, and i mean LOVED, not just saw and went "yeah ok good enough", were done following the blind contour technique
6:31 You can always rewrite it. That's the beauty of a sketchbook. Never going for perfection. we're just having fun. WOW! That inspired me so much. Thank you :)
Omg you're seriously my comfort zone:) i always find a chill chatty best friend in you! This video and your sketchbook tour will always be my favourite:) thanks a lot omg! I love youuuu:)))) have a great dayyy! Im starting my new sketchbook today too! 😭🥹🫶🏻🩷✨
i never comment on yt vids anymore but i just wanted to say that your art is so super inspiring to me. i've had to take a big break from art due to creative burnout and i've been kinda sad w/ all my creative juices drained but watching ur videos makes me so excited for when i'm finally ready to do art again :)
The way you did this video felt soo healthy, we're use to seeing ppl create art in such big ways! Watching this video however was a lot less tense, you were clearly calm and enjoying yourself and the fact that you just shared this video to us means a lot! Thank you
I love how you make your pens glide across the paper, and the random magazine cut outs you put into it! I love your style, its so majestic and bold, and of course adorable!! I know I just seen this video, but the art is amazing!!💕💛
i love when people talk about art and specially your view about it made me see it from another perspective, not focused on the pieces being perfect and that making mistakes is okay are things i'm gonna carry with me forever, thank you so much! this video was really calming ♡
Hey there! I'm here to thank you for sharing your sketchbooks and the process behind them. You really inspire me! My sketchbooks are also filled with collage stuff, and utter chaos all around with all sorts of mix media. The biggest inspiration I took from you were to actually have a proper space to put the stuff to glue in the sketchbook, and to use cut-offs from old magazines. Usually, I had it all just scattered around my room, and I could barely find anything properly. Now, I just threw everything into a single drawer, and it will be quite fun to finally know where everything is - even if buried under a lot of other thrash, they're still there. Somewhere. For the magazines, it motivated me to investigate throughout my house looking for old magazines, newspapers, even books from when I was a kid whose fate are, if not recycled or reutilized, just to wither away in a dusty cabinet forever. So, then again, thank you so much for sharing your art with everyone. Keep going! (Also, I love long videos to listen to while I draw along, so, I'm having a lot of fun listening to your last month's livestream VOD.) Much love from Portugal! :D
you have one of the best mentalities towards art that i have ever experienced! i love to watch your videos when i start to take my channel too seriously. thank you for your service!!🤧
I'm loving the scrap bookish nature of your sketchbook! You have totally inspired me to start sticking more stuff to my sketchbooks to go alongside my drawings! Also loving the use of Undertale music in the background
The way you just started drawing on the front page with no hesitation , and in marker no less, is truly inspirational. I always leave it blank cause I’m scared I’ll mess up
The angry kitty with a boombox gives the same vibe as when I realize I haven't been listening to music very much 😂 (It's one of those things that makes a big difference for me but it gets forgotten when I'm overwhelmed.)
This video really inspired me to get creative with my sketchbook and not care about trying to keep it serious and pretty, and also just having fun with it 😭
This is the first video of yours that I've ever seen and I wanted to say I love that you glue little things in your sketchbook and let yourself be inspired by all sorts of things. I think it's really cute :)
Just discovered this video and your channel. You have such a cosy and comfortable vibe. Your happiness and enthusiasm are infectious! Keep up the good work, can't wait to see more!
