Comparing My First and Latest Sketchbooks 📙📕 | 12 Years Apart
Hey friends☘️ In this video, I’m flipping through my very first sketchbook📙 from when I started as an illustrator and comparing it to my most recent one, which I just finished after 12 years. You’ll see the ‘before and after,’ but let me tell you-it wasn’t just a straight line. There were so many tears, doubts, and hours of practice in between. Hopefully, this inspires you to keep going and trust your own progress!

    Mi piace. Gli sketchbook ci seguono per mesi e per anni e contengono i nostri ricordi meglio di un diario. Non devono essere precisi, ma contenere prove, esperimenti, scarabocchi e , se va bene, due o tre idee grandiose. Questi sono gli sketcbook migliori. Grazie per aver mostrato che già a 25 anni avevi dei progetti che non sono molto lontani da quelli di oggi. ❤❤👍👍😊

      I’m so glad my video resonated with you that day. As someone who has faced many doubts, I want to share one thing: being an artist isn’t just about creating beautiful pictures that please others or fit societal expectations. It’s about an unwavering desire to draw, no matter what. If you’re feeling burned out, take a short break-but if you were looking for a sign or confirmation to keep going, the answer was already within you. ❤️
