You saying that you struggle with being creative is so refreshing to hear bc every artist I see is super creative and can create things from their imagination and because I couldn’t do that, I felt bad and slowly gave up with art
i feel you! it can be super discouraging! i hope you can get back intro art!
I mainly do writing (some drawing, I struggle with sketchbooks), but from my personal experience, creativity is a muscle. Two to four years after I formally began calling myself a writer, I thought I was super uncreative. Everything I made felt flat and cliché. Even now, I’ll have my moments, but the more you try/consume content and get inspired/borrow and extrapolate/just do the dumb idea, the better you get at making really odd connections.
Nothing new ever really exists (or if it does, it mirrors the past), embrace imperfections, love the messy, and know that it’s possible to revise, connect, and add to a ‘bad, cringey idea’ that you put on the back burner, but it’s impossible to fix an idea that you never really let exist in the first place. :)
We all get creative block! Please don’t give up!!🖼
@@andreabutitsruth Yes exactly! Just about 6 months ago, I had no creativity and I would just draw references and more references, but then I started trying to build my creativity with the help of Pinterest, Instagram, and UA-cam in the context of art. Now I am able to create things, I still take a lot of inspiration, but even when I do the art I make feels like mine. So, yes, creativity is a muscle. I also write like you, and yeah I've only recently been flooded with great story ideas because I began reading more outside of the romance genre and delved more into fantasy and other really deep writings. For everything, all you need is a little push. :)
This video might end up being my new comfort video to watch (like E V E R Y D A Y) and I am here for it!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who does this!
this was lovely 💕 don't be so hard on yourself. art is so depending on our mood, headspace, stress levels, art medium, prompt, bla... daily challenges make this so apparent 💕 so be proud that you finished the challenge. it was very inspiring to watch and i love the mix of voice over and music :))) 💖
Beyond impressive! When you're moving forward with that kind of momentum, there's no time for self doubt or hesitation. There's a year's worth of material for paintings in that single book!
I think I’m speaking for a lot of people when I say I’d love to see a spread of just gouache portraits. I love your art style so much and it so satisfying to see you paint😊
I really enjoy longer videos that have a mix of voice narration and music because I put them on while I draw/create or do chores around the house and it’s like we are hanging out together. My good friends and I don’t feel the need to fill every moment with conversation ❤
I've noticed you talk down about yourself often in these videos, and it saddens me. You're a wonderful artist, and everyone makes mistakes. Art is challenging, and doesn't always come out the way you wish it would. Please, be kinder to yourself, it really does add up over time and change the way you view not only yourself, but your mistakes. Take care of yourself, because you matter and you're worthy of kind thoughts.
just want to remind you that your art doesn't have to be perfect all the time especially when you're doing such a small sketchbook, remember not to put too much pressure on yourself and also i love all the pages
I relate to the thing you said about feeling like you lack creativity and always being on the nose when you make something so much. I struggle with it and I feel so upset when I can see like everyone just come up with stuff out of there minds?!?! And make it fun and interesting and colourful I can really only copy references and I really don't know how to make my art more me and interesting. It sucks some times but hey even being able to do art at all is a pretty great talent so there's that, plus your art literally gives me a reason to want to improve
This is a fantastic idea 😊 at first I thought it was crazy because I’ve gotten used to big sketchbooks now haha! this one is a lovely size and looks perfect for filing quickly, using a particular style or for an art challenge maybe ❤
your work is amazing !!!
I actually think it’s very talented of you to be able to follow a reference picture because that’s something I can’t really do it all. I’m always changing things or adding things and even just a copy one out right it always ends up with something else in it. It takes a lot of skill to be able to do a reference picture.
I love your art so much, and I love how you talk openly and honestly about your thought process and your more “negative” moments. Every artist goes through these motions, but it’s so easy to be hard on ourselves. You and your art are wonderful
loved the longer video :) great job on the sketchbook!
You are so talented, love hearing about your thought process. Keep up the good work! 🩷
This is absolutely awesome!! You're incredibly talented, and I seriously loved listening to your thought process!!
i`m feeling inspired. thank you!!
That’s an amazing art challenge. So nice the fact that somebody produce a sketchbook and offered you and then you guys did prompts together and everything is so cool! love it!!!!
Watching this is so cool cause i can see the way colours are laid ontop of eachother and all so kinda cool
ahhh I love that you posted the long video!!! it's sooo good and I personally adore this format! it's a very nice comfort kind of thing for me, and the music parts + voiceover make it both relaxing and engaging!
I really loved the editing on this video as a whole, I didn't think there was too much empty space at all! This is exactly the kind of video I love to put on while working/drawing/etc.
This challenge especially is really inspiring, I think all of the spreads came out lovely and I can tell you had fun with the process. My faves are the egg, mushroom and boat prompts! I wish I had a sketchbook with only a few pages to try something like this :D
I luvvv ur artstyle smm💞🌸 cant get enought of it
I so feel what you said about feeling uncreative and too on the nose... Same. I think creativity is as much a muscle as our drawing muscles and we have to practice with it. Creativity is for problem solving, it's something every person has, but yes it is harder for some than others! I think your radishes are gorgeous 🥰
Agreed and also she mentioned being busy and feeling rushed and I think that can totally hinder creativity. It's something I struggle with myself, trying to juggle so many things I have a photography insta, drawing/painting insta and also run an unrelated Etsy shop single handledly 😩 the struggle is real trying to create content and make money and stay creative argh!
i really like how it turned out and when you said its hard to be creative... i relate. and also the fact that you didnt want to kinda waste the sketchbook is soo relatable but dont be so hard on urself! u inspired me!!
i love that you went with the long version! it emphasizes the amount of time art takes which i think gets brushed over in really short videos.
You are an amazing artist. Really enjoyed your process. You reminded me that as artists most of us have days or pages we are not fully happy with. I look back at those journal pages and find myself liking them more than I realized. Hope you will as well.
Something I’ve been working on is sticking with a piece until the end, even if I don’t feel like finishing it. Like with the mushroom spread, you could have salvaged them but gave up and I think that’s such a real thing that we as artists don’t talk about. Sometimes art is really hard
something I love to do to deal with markers bleed throughs is paint a layer of matte acrylic paint, and it doesnt damage the marker drawing on the otherside! I typically only do that on think drawing paper or mixed media paper def not sketching paper. I love your drawings! I'm gonna look into those art crayons they look so fun to use
This was incredible! Thank you so much for letting us watch your journey! I really love your art so much and helps motivate me to draw and sketch more! Thank you! I’m a huge fan of deer and landscape! Also the star one was incredible!!! Hehe and I loved the boat theme!!! You have personally inspired me to draw more vegetables!!! ❤❤❤❤
love this type of video sooooooo much!! Really inspired me! Hoping to see more long videos like this
love this video and the art you made!
love this so much!
I loved this little challenge, I love your challenge videos! I can’t wait to see what other challenges you are going to tackle!
You are such a good artist. My heart warmed seeing you draw and paint.
I'm absolutely in love with the pink deer, so so cute!
You were SO excited to talk about the boats that it made me smile.
Honestly I feel your grips about not being creative enough or feel that the way you depict your stories are to bold or not subtle enough. Although that can be a strength, if you have an idea that you want to share, sometimes having the message right in front of the audience with no room for denial of the message can be really powerful, especially in an age where art often isn’t taken at face value.
I really love your channel and your art style is really pleasing to look at, the artist you referenced for the first day seemed really interesting, would you happen to have any recommendations for exploring this artists work as a reference tool? :)
i really love this comment and is so iconic as your pfp is maka i love iittt x
THIS IS SO GORGEOUS OMG
i just love how you make food paintings, so cool. It just gave motivation to paint with diferente medias, probably i wont anyway
I love your art, so pretty
I love your videos so much! They always remind me that I really don't have to choose only one tool for drawing, and they're so so inspiring
Watching you for a long time already, but today I feel like I had to type this :)
you have such an eye for color :) i love watching your channel so much, i hope you post videos forever lol
yay for algorithm bringing me here..... enjoying so far what I see..the drawings, the positive energy :) Lett's see what else all you have posted :)
damn! that's quite a thing to achieve..
I'm about to go grocery shopping w my mom, so I'll have to watch it later, but just the title alone impressed me already!
The next time you want to do something like this and really want to use markers. You could consider putting a plastic sheet between pages to protect the remaining sketchbook and then use a layer of gouache to cover up the bleed through 😁
you also could draw on marker paper and then tape/glue it in ✂️
Scrapbooking blogs and videos have great layouts that can also be used for sketchbooks 😁 using the same medium and/or color pallet also makes them appear to belong as one spread. If all else failed, use a highlighter or other coloring tool to draw boxes around your favorite elements and draw the same boxes on both pages. BAM instant “spread”
She did put a sheet under the marker drawings, that is really good advice, though! Scrapbooking just looks so cool in the end, I don’t know how people do it so good
I think you are very creative! I would never have occurred to me to paint radishes!
Beautiful and Calm video!!
Love your videos and work!! ❤also, your enthusiasm is very refreshing! 😊
Thank you so much!!
i work out during long videos. but i really like watching art come together
Another sketchbook video, yay!
It's interesting how your brain requires these reference pictures so heavily when it's then able to transform them into these beautifully layered-images. It just makes me wonder how different creatives' brain work!
I love rthis video though, each of the segments is fantastic and I think you're wonderful at creating sketchbook spreads!
That self portrait came out SO good! It looks fantastic with all the compositional elements
Hope you have a great week ahead!
i've actually never thought of it that way, how i need the photo but then sometimes hardly use it!! omg!!
Woah your marker collection is 😍 wow!!
Also boats are super hard 😂 I live by a harbour and sit out there some mornings with coffee and do some sketches and it's Hella complicated especially when there's loads grouped together 😵
The mushroom basket drawing that you disliked so much is actually my favourite :)
Your star spread... number six!! Well done!!
I think this challenge is a cool idea because it got you out of your regular routine and comfort level. Sometimes you need that specific body of work that tests those areas that you need to work on. Changing up the colors, prompts, limiting the amount of detail used and even using mediums your not used to will get you to try new things. Not everything will work out but you will have created pieces that challenge your abilities.
Hey, on finding it hard to be creative, I think maybe you need to hear this? You ARE creative and you make creative choices multiple times throughout this sketchbook, but almost every single time, you punish yourself for it. Like, with the mushroom prompt, you represented the subject matter in a fun, creative, unique way, then you only say negative things about how it turned out. Yeah, okay, maybe it wasn't what you hoped it would look like, but if you keep being harsh on yourself every time you take a creative risk, you're only going to make it harder to improve. Your creativity is right there, it's bright and beautiful and it's YOURS, but you need to nurture it or it will never grow.
Your sketchbook is beautiful the person who made it is awesome. I think you are to critic of yourself! Your work in markers tho was amazing! I havent seen anyone use markers in the way you do. Its like a painting! It blew my mind especially the norman rockwell inspired pieces on day one. Have you considered in your sketchbook doing markers having a blotter page underneath then on the back side use paint to cover it? You could also gesso the back side then use pens or colored pencils there.
Hahaha I love drawing ramen bowls with eggs too! This video was fun, thanks for putting it together.
I use posca pens a lot in my sketchbook and never have bleed through. I use the sea white Brighton sketchbooks. Paper is 160gsm. Maybe posca pens in something to try. Absolutely love this idea!! Deffo gonna use the idea!!
So you sketch all the pages first with line sketch then complete the pages by working in the colours. Great idea!
This was beautiful ans inspiring!!!
OMG those GIANT crayons look like so much fun!
Love the video!!! I'm no pro, you're way ahead of me but maybe consider using an eq or compress or filter your audio. I love the video but the audio was a lil rough with my headphones.
I’m obsessed with the stars and planets page 😍
Me encanta como se ven los dibujos cuando abre el sketchbook en el minuto 28:48.
Mis favoritos son el primer y último día, aunque el ciervo y la casita estaban bastante lindos también.
Beautiful illustrartions=3
lol you could make a really funny series about “eggs on top”
i feel you on the marker bleed through 😭 its so annyoing. i use canson the wall paper and that's really good and bleedproof but it's gotten pricy lately :l though it may be cheaper for you in the us
I was one of the people who voted for a shorter video, but I loved this
Wow ❤✨
Wow, what’s the fluo orange pencil in the last spread? I would love some of that in my life! 😅
Have you watched Arizona dream before?! Axel's job is actually to count fish and like watch them I've always thought it was the coolest job!!
Wow😮
I loved that mushroom one what’s wrong with it?also I think the thing that might of put you off in the space one is the style:you (the portrait) had a realistic style but the space was more cartoon-y
To be honest I know that might sound *unorthodox* but I think these DO work as spreads. Like, even the deer and house one. They look similar *enough* and seem to fit in a same reality somehow. Like youd have seen both on a trip somewhere. I love it, and the video!!
very nice video, thanks for sharing ^_^
Nerdforge also did this and I totally recommend checking hers out
You should do an art. I love your paintings
What are the norman rockwell books that were used?
I think you could have made the landscape and deer work together really easily by making the background and foreground cross over the pages. The perspective would have been way off, but you’d have brought both palettes together and the deer would have looked like it was in the landscape.
I understand avoiding markers because of bleed through...it's sad, but unless you are prepared for it they can cause trouble for any picture on the following page/pages. That being said, i DO love the ideas that the bleed splotches can create for me...i like incorperating the quasi shapes or the colors that have blead through onto the next page or two. Perhaps that could be a fun way to still use your markers, and maybe even be a way to fill pages you might have avoided because of the bleed? Just a thought and examples of what i do with them as it is sad not to be able to use your favorite medium because of something like bleed through.
I'm painting raccoons water skiing for a friend's Christmas present so thank you for the longer video
What was the paper used in the sketchbook?
This video had a lovely mix of talking bits and just music. I never felt like i needed to fill the silence with something else and i’m someone who voted for the short videos with no silent parts 😊
As for challenge suggestions: how about a 24 hours art challenge? With only breaks to sleep, eat and bathroom breaks? I’d love to see that. Or i’m also always a sucker for redraws of old sketches. 😊
love day 6
Cut yourself some slack! Those are gorgeous radishes! Life imitates art, and if you're able to transfer what you're seeing onto paper i think that's incredibly creative! Coming up with techniques/ways to 'enhance' a piece is SO HARD, and i actually think you did just enough with pencil work and drop shadow. You're great!!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT THOSE MARKERS ARE CALLED 10:15
Brrruuuh. The deer and the house COULD have been a spread though... like, deer in the foreground (sorry, I liked it was pink, but you do you!) and just did foreground foliage with the house and sea at the back! This was a fun time... thanks for the entertainment!
I feel like you accidentally drew me instead of you 😂
What kind of paper is in this sketchbook?
you're way too critical with yourself! i am the exact same way but i just wish you could see your qualities as if you were an outsider: you'd be amazed. i understand not having the qualities that you would like to, but instead you have others that are so astounding! loved your art, crazy about the fisherkid (god, the blush!!!) and those raddishes! would love to put them up my wall.
i've never had spam before lol, but would def have to have it with eggs if i did 😝
I have the #4hrsketchbook challenge you could try if you are crazy enough lol I normally did it because I had a super cheap small thin sketchbook. I've also tried the one day sketchbook.
DANG that sounds hard!!! very intriguing...
November 13th is my birthday 😍
wait a sec, that day 2 prompt was supposed to be radishes but why did she draw turnips?
👍👍👍
youre adorable i love you, i am enjoying this video very much.
I don’t understand why people use their ecoline watercolour brush pens like Textas because they’re meant to be used with water and a brush. Every page you’ve done is beautiful you’re being way too hard on yourself. I understand being blocked, but appreciate the fact that you were still able to create something, even if it was a copy of something else something is better than nothing.
Maybe you're slowly turning into a line gurl. It happens to the best of us
What's a line girl?
@@arioctober when you're better at lines than painting. Idk i call it line gurl
im going to be honest your explanation did not clarify what a line girl is at all hahahha
There is nothing wrong with painting or drawing from reference. Pro artists do it too… they use rl as reference.
Longer videos help with attention span. So long video is great.
