SKETCHBOOK Q&A: Inspirations, Fear of Failure, Art School + Tips! 

sketch and finished piece books, maybe also with a little tutorials, that would be a dream book

I'd really like to see your sketchbook with rough sketches and thumbnails

A Book to learn your technique would be amazing

I would buy an instructional book from you in a heartbeat. I am newish at taking art more seriously and am just working on getting better every day.

You‘re so lovely for rescueing Mathilda ❤ She‘s the cutest!!

Jess ur my inspiration . I love all ur drawings

Would love to see a book from you with your sketchbook art and your thoughts on process!

A book with all your sketches?! *swooning at the thought*

You are so good with laying your subjects and spacing them.

When you use your right side of your brain, the creative side. Ideas will come.The more you create, the more ideas will flow. I’m nearly eighty years young and continue teach in a school. Cheers from Australia, Kayo

You are drawing better than anyone else!

You gave me motivation to start a new sketchbook....thanks...at least im doing something in the lockdown

I can watch you sketch all day 😍 it’s so mesmerizing

I can paint a huge piece of art , but when it comes to doodling , I just can't stick to it not even 10 minutes !

I’ve been seeing so many monochromatic artworks lately, now I want to do one 😆. Beautiful work as always, can’t wait for the sketchbook tour!

Always happy when a notification from you comes ! Much love ! Edit : Art of Jess Karp would definitly be awesome !!

I lived in Italy for four years. Loved it so much :)

U R THE BEST !! I LOVE YOUR WORK

that spread dear omg super super cool

I'm not just knowing the importance of doodling. Jess reminding me that life is good.

Thank you so much for not just saying “da Vinci” 😎

Jess.........you really don't "doodle." You are a true artist and your work is gorgeous.

I love the way you draw jess, you are my inspiration and I just wanna be and draw like you

Ohhh jessica plzzz make a jess karp book . I seriously love ya plzzz

U are really one of my inspiration .I don't know english that well ,so I can't understand everything you saying . So I can't concentrate how u painting. So I pause the video and read the captions.. And that was a good talk.i watched the whole vedio.😇.keep it up👍👍👍

We all can say 100 percent that jess really love to play with colours 😉

Just ordered that sketchbook!

Relaxing video ✨ ..thank you for inspiring small artists .. love from India ❤️✨

11:48 Yes! So true, I stopped drawing for about 16 years. I would dabble here and there. All in all when I got back into drawing recently in the past 2 years. I had to draw everyday. At first my art was so forced and stiff but as time went I I realize how to relax, set up a good mood, and just draw things around my house. It is surprisingly eye opening to just stop and find a corner, object or space in your house and just draw. I created some precious little pieces with just simple colored pencils and multi colored pen. It was so great. Also watching Jess go through her sketch books inspired me to pull out my 3 unfurled sketch books I had when I was in middle school into high school and just look over things and critique myself. Honestly I had amazing portraits. But there was some major fails as well. But I learned from my mistakes. I was able see were my proportions were off, my shading, the flow of my hand was stiff in some drawings while other I recall being more relaxed and holding the pencil back further. It is very eye opening. Even on the pages were I drew to small and left it blank. It helped me learn to see my space and find composition even if it was just one object. Anyways Not trying to still the show here hahaha! I am so inspired and so thankful for all the things you are sharing. I love reading through to comments as well and being inspired by others who are also developing their skills. Keep up the good work ALL!

Every time I watch your videos I feel more motivated to keep creating/painting/drawing & it reminds me how much better I feel when I do :) Thank you!

YES BEST BOOK EVER!

I loved loved loved this video today! What a great way of saying fear of failure. I've been doing a lot of ink portraits lately and just completed a challenge.

Your spread came out fantastic!

You are so inspiring!❤

Oh my goodness how much did I love watching these paintings come to life whilst listening to you talk Jess! So much! I’m fascinated by the way you used matte medium on top of the graphite - I guess that’s to stop smudging of the paint on top?

Your just awesome!🥺 Love your videos so much! And you inspire me a lot!❤

I love Q&A’s. So much great info. Thanks Jess!

INCREDIBLE TALENT!!! I love your art and the diverse styles and concepts you create with the various mediums. Just AMAZING!!!

Hello, for me the inspiration come by itself without doing research when i begin hearing Heavy metal songs i love them so much and the inspiration for what to draw came by itself effortlessly only by hearing Heavy metal songs and i created a comic with sixty page even that i am not good at writing story's

I am so amazed by this spread this is my favorite spread that you have ever done

Incredible work! My favorite of the two is the one on the right where it's just one person. It feels so calming with the colors even though there are also several pieces and details to it. I wanted to mention that it's always so nice to see how you use so many different techniques in your art. It reminds me to be open minded in what can be possible, so thank you for that.

I love the spreads! I can’t wait for the tour.

That was fun to watch! I love seeing your sketches developing in real time...so cool! Thanks for sharing.
