What are your sketchbook goals?

@liesbethartlife 11 месяцев назад

Using it in a scrapbook form, adding papers, loose sketches I made on the bus, tickets, hospital bands, or things that reminds me of the reason I made that piece. It’s more a surreal expressive sketchbook, and not like a sketchbook for practice or ideas for bigger pieces alone. That’s why I stopt sharing all my sketching and art on Instagram as it’s became more personal

@liesbethartlife 11 месяцев назад

Another goal is to buy and rebuy the sketchbook I like and trying not to get in the temptation to try some other brand, format, paper etc which I will end up hating and not filling or just stopt sketching. I’m now in love with an a4 size Aurora sketchbook and I already have bought 2 others for when this one is full.

@tiffanydawson 11 месяцев назад

To fill one completely and not stop parts way through

@melanie990 11 месяцев назад

To actually finish one. I'm almost 43, have been using sketchbooks since I could walk and have never completed one. I own over a hundred different sketchbooks and partially use them all but give up and move on too soon.

HOT TIP! for those who get stressed with ugly pages in a sketchbook and get crippled by the idea of having to have *the perfect sketchbook*. Don't have a sketchbook! I only use single sheets, and i keep working in progress, finished, and uglies in three seperate dividers. At the end of the year I put all my finished sketches into a binder with all my other drawings that made the cut. Then I have my perfect sketchbook :)) The uglies just get kept in a seperate place, physically away from my pretty binder. But, you could totally throw out your ugly pages and start with a clean slate the next year if that makes you feel better.

@JelArts 11 месяцев назад

Now there's an idea!

@stooglesgoogles7246 11 месяцев назад

Yes i just glue pages in

@ratlimited3781 11 месяцев назад

That’s so incredibly smart oml?? Not only does it solve the problem I commented, but so many other challenges that I face when it comes to traditional art as well :0 I’m definitely doing that!!

@max_ishunter 3 месяца назад

I do something similar, like I would draw on a seperate piece of paper and if I like it, I'll glue it into my sketchbook. It also gives a bit of that scrapbook vibe which I enjoy too.

@silvyghostie_melo 11 месяцев назад

Another Tip for Perfectionists [like myself] Draw with pen!! Not pens that you can friction erase, but just any pen gel or ballpoint, etc. It’s more of a commitment and kinda forces you to be confident in what you put down on the page! I’ve also found I do some of my best sketches are in pen rather than pencil! It also allows me to be looser!

@JelArts 11 месяцев назад

This is very true!

@lidiakrajewskaart 11 месяцев назад

Yes, whenever I feel stuck or paralysed with perfectionism I sketch with a black gel pen. It really helps

@crystalhotham9116 8 месяцев назад

i just love a black gel pen for anything writing sure drawing you betcha @@lidiakrajewskaart

@prix3897 11 месяцев назад

Sometimes I don't use other media in my sketchbook bit I really want to... Color pencil and markers.. mix different materials in my sketchbook.. your videos really help me try new stuff

@SaloSketch 11 месяцев назад

I never expected one of my comments to appear in a video 🤯 But yeah, ruining your supplies can be a bad thing. Pens are usually not expensive, but where I live art stores are few and far between, and none of them are big. I struggle to find my favorites supplies sometimes. I have flattened quite a lot of pen nibs. Its not a good feeling knowing you screwed a supply you cant readily get again.

@centradragon 11 месяцев назад

I really love seeing all the different ways sketchbooks can be filled out! Going back to older pages and "filling" empty areas as a warmup is an excellent way to make progress - no one likes to sit on a page for too long, haha.

@sketchbookscheming 11 месяцев назад

Fun spread, and the comments are really interesting to read through.

@JelArts 11 месяцев назад

Thanks so much :)

@mrs.joestar 11 месяцев назад

Super pumped for this video because I recently created my own sketch book. So my goals are 1. To make it look like the rainbow ( i'm inspired by your colourful sketchbook tours and Doodle Traffic), 2. Explore different mediums, 3. Practice backgrounds, 4. Try out collages, 5. Create detailed spreads(once again inspired by you and @Jess Karp), 5. Improve anatomy, 6. Try my best to be consistent and 7. JUST HAVE FUN, it's my little art gallery afterall❤

@thinkerdreamersketcherspy 11 месяцев назад

My goal: finish a sketchbook for the first time. Having bad pages at the start is so discouraging. I've been thinking of starting from the last page so I wouldn't need to see the bad pages. 🤔

@yeliah311 11 месяцев назад

i've never thought to use oil pastels on top of marker!!! i love the way it looks here!

@JelArts 11 месяцев назад

It kind of changed my life!! I tried using them on the white of my sketchbook page but it was too harsh - having a coloured backdrop is really nice!!

@Dumbunny420 11 месяцев назад

You genuinely have inspired me so much, the way you can sketch with seemingly ease, the way you don’t care if a page is messy, and I love it. I’ve stared using markers more and coloured pencils, I just ordered a set of erasable pencil crayons and totally stopped using pencils. About to go dig out my water colours

@JelArts 11 месяцев назад

That's really nice of you to say; thank you so much!

@honestydavis2289 11 месяцев назад

For me I always get two notebooks. One is a dry media sketchbook I use for practicing new techniques or old ones that I don't care about finishing or being messy. Then my mixed media sketchbook I take to do those techniques that I've practiced to do finished pieces. Took a lot of pressure off me to be perfect or fill it all the way

@ChantelleArts 11 месяцев назад

So many of these sketchbook problems resonate with me, but also some of the solutions I have already done and found super helpful. Great video! there’s some really helpful points here 😊❤

@kittiq 8 месяцев назад

I love your channel and cute little sketches like this. You motivate me to continue my art journey.

@HammyCare1 7 месяцев назад

I'm homeschooled, I enjoy listening to your videos while I do my work.

@emilymlau5813 11 месяцев назад

Would LOVE to see this page as a sketchbook print ❤ Or even just some stickers ( the rolie polie bug in particular)

@pt.bonesy 11 месяцев назад

My solution was to make my own. I take scraps of recycled paper, construction paper, or cheap mixed media paper and sew em into little pamphlets I call “crapbooks”. I like having sketchbooks and paper bundled into a nice compact thing but premade one’s always feel like I gotta keep ‘em perfect, so that’s what I do now. If I make a good looking drawing in them or do a technique that works, I just cut it out and glue it in my pre-made sketchbook. Another problem I have is that I love sketching on toned paper a lot but I can’t get my hands on any mixed media ones except strathmore which are pricey in my area. I’ve also made a few “serious” sketchbooks and found myself feeling more at ease, but it’s also tough for me to get paper in the right size cause I like square books :/

@TwilightAngel_89 11 месяцев назад

great video 😄I feel the same as everyone when it comes to filling their sketchbooks 😅or not doing at all, u inspire me and others so much Jel ❤

@intergalacticpeachpatrol 11 месяцев назад

for people who are tempted to rip out their "ugly" or "ruined" pages - try painting over them instead! that way you can still use the page, it doesn't ruin the structural integrity of your sketchbook, and it adds some excitement to whatever you end up turning that page into! bonus points if you use a fun colour!

@Spiffycow 11 месяцев назад

I spend too much time in my daily sketchbook pages 😭 Too prone to perfectionism in my studies. I really need to set a timer and quit treating every study like it needs to perfectly replicate what I see! Also what are those juicy crayons you used on top of your markers?? :O I was impressed how opaque they are.

@JelArts 11 месяцев назад

They're called caran d'ache neocolour II aquarelle! I can't recommend them enough. They're also water soluable!

@solarsauce8312 11 месяцев назад

i have been LOVING your videos lately and have been non stop watching!! long time fan

@JelArts 11 месяцев назад

I'm so happy to hear that you enjoy them!!

@sevenoncr4ck 9 месяцев назад

I had the volume low and the fan on, so I was basically just vibing half asleep to chicken doodles, but I am so tired, I started crying when the advert/promo came on because I liked the chickens…😭😭😭

@OHeyChrissy 11 месяцев назад

My sketchbook goals are... to actually fill my sketchbooks. I have SO many that I bought several years back from my FAVORITE art store.. no longer exists but.. thats ok. I have tons of sketchbooks I've been scared to use. I'm currently filling a sketchbook I had in college.

@ava.elizabeth1720 7 месяцев назад

For me, it’s that my sketchbook is the only form of art I do other than extra art class- I never do big paintings or artworks or projects…

@fuzzydragons 11 месяцев назад

you can never draw too many chooks, they are just so cute 😀🥰

@tiffanydawson 11 месяцев назад

This is the video i needed i been not drawing much lately because idk what to draw and just need motivation

@K.ART_vlog 11 месяцев назад

so nice ❤😍

@TwoTailedSponge 11 месяцев назад

I struggle with drawing on the back of each page for fear of "bleeding" from prrvious mediums.

@MrCaptainKohl 4 месяца назад

Hey, don't know how relevant this is gonna be on a 6 month old vid when the internets collective attention span is about 37 seconds, but, as some one rediscovering there passion for drawing at 30 I found something out about myself that may help others. I realized I had aphantasia, about a year ago now (the inability to visualize images in the minds eye). This, for one, is part of the reason I gave up in the first place years ago, because I didn't understand that I had to learn differently than others. But, two, it's a big factor in my hesitation to use colored pencil and paint in my work, I can't picture how the colors will look until there on the page, and that used to frustrate me to no end. Now I understand, for me atleast, it's about experimenting with the cheap stuff and in small amounts, making color plates on the the side of the page first, things like that. Don't give up, just because you need to take a different approach doesn't mean it's not for you.

@teco1643 2 месяца назад

I wanna make drawing fun again. Ever since I got into animation school I feel like my love for drawing has been getting smaller. I hate everything I do, I feel like I'm never doing anything for myself & when I finally do get time to do something for myself I don't wanna do it 'cause I either don't know what to do or I'm so tired of drawing for others & so unmotivated about the work that didn't go well. It's been so frustrating, I've been crying about it like a baby but I feel stuck & idk what to do :(

@OwlsByte 11 месяцев назад

What do you look for inspiration wise? I love how you draw a lot of animals & the amount of color you use in your art and I want to apply that to my own art but I’m not quite sure how

@qiyiyi29 11 месяцев назад

I like your video! they are so well designed and I love the colors. it is very fun to see you use different mediums, I fear to try. One of my problem is, if I'd draw a page like the one you did in this video, I would plan what I want to draw and measure the size of each area, in the end there won't be enough time on the day and the next day I just lost the interest of finish the page.... that happened many times. I spent so much time on planning but wasted in the end, I even went on photoshop to layout all the images before I started my sketchbook.🥲 I want to draw freely and just start to draw without planning. I'm working on this, I bought an A6 size of sketchbook to draw, the page is small enough for me to fit 1-3 things in it. and I don't force myself to complete one page per day, just do it whenever I want, and not showing it to anybody, that helps!😄

@lainiwakura1776 11 месяцев назад

I want to use mixed media sketchbooks so I can use the art supplies I have, but I have a bunch of older sketchbooks with lighter weight paper and I hate when the paper get wrinkled, besides those, I have a bunch of pictures I've saved that I want to use for studies but have never actually used. I'd like to get through those pics to help fill up my sketchbooks.

@sugarnanigans9788 11 месяцев назад

I think one of my sketchbook fears is that I want to use markers in it but I’m afraid of the heavy bleed I mean I could just get a multimedia sketchbook but I don’t really like the paper

@shiftybiz8138 8 месяцев назад

what kind of markers do you use?

Lately I’ve had a bunch of art block, I’m bored of my own art, and when I do feel inspired art block strikes again. I’m happy with my art I have made in the past, but now what I make is meh. Any suggestions? I really want to post art on my channel but Lately (as in two weeks) I think i don’t like my art I make now.

@allthingsnorah 5 месяцев назад

I definitely need to practice not needing to finish my art too tho

Well my reason for that is I have to buy all the things to know what I like. Although since I already know I don’t like colour pencils I don’t know why I keep looking at them and thinking I need more.

@alkfrede 11 месяцев назад

well i havent seen anyone talking about thing that i have but srs im getting so tired of this my problem is i always used to redraw stuff from pictures or other arts when i was younger and today i try to change shit and making it somehow more cooler but first of all thats lame and second thats getting boring. then ill think wtf sis just dont use a ref so you cant copy it and then the blankest mind comes. not a single thought in this brain. just. nothing. and ill prolly end up with basic 3/4 flying head and call it a day. i dont know what should i do with this since my brain is always rather empty and art is making it more visible and humiliating
