Thanks so much…I really appreciate your encouragement! 😊🌸
Wow...I really appreciate what you show here on your nature diaries. I am totally blown away with the amount of sketches, drawings and paintings that you have created. I hope everyone is encouraged by this video, super practical tips on how to chose the right sketch books. Excellent job!
Thanks so much! Really appreciate your support 😊!
I am tending to like smaller 5 by 5 inch sketchbooks right now. It seems easier to complete a small drawing or painting. I always enjoy seeing your art and books!
Yes, those small sketchbooks always seem easier to fill…Thanks so much for watching and sharing 😊!
This was a really helpful video. You brought up some great points I hadn't thought of before. Thank you!
@@MsJulietG so glad! Thanks for watching 😊🌸

Nie wiem jaki notes, może na początek cokolwiek żeby chociaż spróbować, zacząć.
Ambrowiec oraz orzesznik spotykany w ogrodach botanicznych. Za to robinii jest dużo, pyszny jest miód 🐝
Aesculus hippocastaneum rośnie pospolicie, jak przychodzi jesień to spadają kasztany, dzieci mają radość z robienia ludzików. Lecz od paru lat to drzewo mocno cierpi przez szkodnika który minuje jego liście,
I hope the trees will heal. It’s nice you are journaling them. Thanks for watching 😊🌼
I’m so excited I found your channel! I’ve been wanting to do this for years and was too intimidated to start. I’m having back surgery next month, so next year when I’m getting around just fine I’ll be starting my nature journal ❤ Until then I’m going to be living for your videos!!!Thank you so much for all the information you provide. You’re my new favorite channel!
Thanks so much! Hope your surgery goes well too🙏 Feel free to capture some photos now if you feel like journaling after your recovery…it still counts to journal by photos. Hope you enjoy making your beautiful art! 😊
You believe you’re the ONLY one contemplating something…and then another artist makes a video about it😂 and then you remember that no matter how solitary you feel, as an artist, you are indeed NOT alone!🤣🙏🏽
That’s true! So many amazing creative people are in this world…thanks for watching! 😀
Your page layouts are beautiful! Nice work!

Thanks so much for watching!! 😊❤️
Beautiful drawings and paintings!
Thank you!! 😊🌸
Thank you for this video! It was great fun to watch 😊 and I realy enjoyed this.
I think all sizes have there benefits. Just like you mentioned. I do love to work on the medium size sketchbook the most. Working on the big size I feel somewhat lost. 😅
Thanks for sharing your favorite size sketchbook…feels like the medium sized sketchbooks seem to be the most accessible size for many journalers…thanks so much for watching and commenting! 😄
Thank you very much for the video, it's very insightful 🌷

Thank you!!!!
Thank you 😊!!
Fantastic tips and questions to ask ourselves! I can't say which is my favorite size, though -- they all have a purpose for different activities. I received a gift of a small 2" x 3" that I carry on my daily nature walks to capture just 1 plant that caught my eye that day, and that has turned out to be such a wonderful journal! There's no pressure to complete a big page or fear of the blank page. Most of my nature journaling is done in a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" mixed media sketchbook which fits great in my journal kit bag, so I would say medium size is my most commonly used. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for watching! Yes, those small and medium sketchbooks are my favorite to carry around AND for actually finishing. Thanks for sharing your favorites! 😊
I use a 7x10 mixed media spiral sketchbook for the most part. I sometimes make an accordion fold watercolor sketchbook if i’m wanting to do wetter, looser work. Those i make out of 9x12 pads so they end up being 6x9. I make those accordion folded so i can work with two or more continuous panels.
Great ideas! Thanks for sharing and watching 😊!
Your sketches are beautiful I love A5 size sketchbooks because they suite all situations for me outside I hug mine close to sketch inside it's used on my desk also I love to put my yoga mat down and sketch in the living room this has a childish effect on my sketches and loosens up my artwork too thank you for sharing this video with really useful information hints and tips 😊
@@deborahmeyers551 Thank you! Keeping a sketchbook close is a great way to draw often…thanks so much for sharing your thoughts 😊!
