- Welcome to Draw Tip Tuesday!
Here's a popular video from the archives for you!
You may have been away and got out of the habit of drawing regularly.
If you've been in a bit of a rut, or you feel rusty: you know what to do! Pick up that pen and take time to draw.
You'll notice that you have muscle memory, and before you know it, you are right back into the swing of that wonderful creative flow. Let's do this!

It really helps to have an urban sketching group that meet on a regular basis. I created a Thursday group and we love sketching together and then having lunch. Great time! Also we set up meet ups here in San Francisco almost every Sat and Sunday. Meeting with a bunch of other urban sketchers is a wonderful inspiration..
Have a lovely holiday. ❤️
Shoes sketchbook is a great idea!
Hi Koosje I have ordered your book, because I like to support other artist and I am sure I will find it very interesting. Just to let you know I sketch your face from the tube videos. You give such lovely animated expressions, full of vitality and joy. I play the video find and freeze the best shots. Then by using my mini iPad taking the still shots from my large iPad. The images are great to sketch from, and of course great practice as I work from the many expressive faces captured. It’s fun and will fill a sketchbook. Thank you for being such a great model.
Have a great month, Koosje! This is a great video; encouraging, stimulating and reassuring.
Thank you!
muscle memory is important with art, as long as people dont stress and trust their brain, their hands usually know what to do 😀
Love those earrings!
Thank you!
I’ve procrastinated for AGES… followed your lead and drew my foot. Several times. REALLY enjoyed it 👍
Congratulations on the book, Koosje !!
thank you!
Koosje! I just bought your book!!! Can’t wait to thumb through and get lost in it. 🤩
Thank you for purchasing my book!
My sketch book goes everywhere I go at least 95% of the time. I try, but I’m not always successful, to sketch at least once a day. For me it is the only way to go. It beats a camera most every time. I like the shoes idea. I like the fact you are using a nib pen as opposed to felt tip pens or even a fountain pen. Many years ago that is what I started with. I still have most of the staffs and nibs. Enjoy your vacation. Your fans will wait for your return.
Love the book! I’ve started drawing again - in a little travel sketchbook. I carry it with me all the time now. Thank you for the inspiration 😀
That makes me so happy!

Thank you for your weekly encouragement to make more art!
Have a wonderful august, Koosje. Can't wait for your book to arrive!
In my experience, if I have been absent from a creative skill, there is always a bit of rust. But once I work through that rust I return to that creative skill even better than when I left it. I think as long as it stays close to my heart, it is still being worked on in some way. Getting through the rust never feels good but it is worth it and doesn't take long.
Thank you, Koosje.
I just ordered your book. I am so happy I was able to order it in the USA. Thanks for making it so easy to order. I have been following you for years on Sketchbook Skool; I wish you much success with your book.
Happy to tell you I received my book today in the USA. It looks beautiful. I can’t wait to dive into it!🌺
Thank you for another interesting and informative video. Have a great month off. X
I like your cover photo
I missed my sketchbook at my vacation, it was a mistake not to take it with me!
👍👍👍
I am new to sketching with no drawing skills or background. but I love it. How can learn to draw? any suggestions?
thanks
Watch some of the videos on this channel, perhaps. And find beginners tips on UA-cam. But most of all: draw. Draw whatever seems fun to you and draw a lot. Draw draw draw. Find instruction videos when you don’t know how to tackle a certain topic or subject. Then try different approaches. You learn by doing.
